How often to you say...

ill just play to the next checkpoint/save point/end of level and stop playing. and end up keep playing and say ill play til the next one and it ends up being hours later?

i do that alot. recently with Batman: AA, ill get to a point and say ill get to the next save point and ill shut it off. but when i get to it i dont wanna stop and play til the next one and so on and so on and then it ends up being 1-2 hours after i said i was guna stop. the game is so sweet i cant stop.

That's a surefire sign of a good game.

I did it with Uncharted 2 and I found myself playing the game for 8 hours.

i've done that with only a couple games recently, mgs4 and UC2. normally im pretty good at turning a game off b/c i can usually figure out where the next save point is. some games don't savevery often and some games (demons souls) save every5 seconds.

Bayonneta. I said that at chapter 5 and stopped at chapter 8.

Most recent games Ive done that with have ben Ratchet and Clank CIT AC2 and Borderlands, and before that the last one I did that with was Prototype :P

Just did that today with GoW2, I was going to stop around the beginning of the palace of the fates and before I know it I'm finishing the game. Same with Demon's Souls and Uncharted 2.

If you're not psychotic, it's a surefire sign of a good game.:P

I end up doing that with most of them games I play... Exceptions being games like Far Cry 2...

I did that with Infamous. I kept doing it until 4 in the morning, and I had a class at 8.

I do this a lot with games I really enjoy. This gen, I did this with:

MGS4 (Finished the entire game without skipping any cutscenes in two sittings)
Uncharted 2
Dead Space
Demon's Souls
GeOW 1&2
Dead Rising
COD4,5,6 (I always say "one more match..." then stay on for another 30 mins or so"

I also remember I used to do this A LOT with Monster Hunter Freedom on PSP and most jrpg's I used to play like FF, Breath of Fire, etc.
