I feel the urge to own a lot of the new games on the market like you, so that I don't miss an awesome experience, but I end up not caring about the games after they've for a little while, and I tell myself I won't play it that much anyway prolly because at most I only play 4 hoursm straight when I get REALLY into a game, and that's not very often. Then on a rental on some weekend when nothings planned I can play all day trying to beat an engaging game.

An hour a day . . . if I'm lucky. With work, coaching, and my masters I sometimes don't get to play every day either. Usually on weekends I can get about 4 hours in total, and then during the week I kind of pick at gaming. I wish I could spend more time on it, so I could finally get around to playing some of these games everyone is raving about.

I cant play more than 2 hours these days,sometimes not more than a couple online games. I get bored of them easily although I still love games. But when GTA4 comes out, that's all I will be able to do all day.

Same here. I admit that I have the gamer's addiction but I'm not asking for any kind of help. Life would be pretty damn boring if entertainment never existed. Video games help maintain my sanity whenever life kicks ya in the ass. It's either lose my sanity and die from boredom or conquer games and make a name for yourself. I usually play 4-6 hours daily during the week and 7-10 hours during the weekend.

Weekdays - I play about 2-3 hours on the PSP at work (I can get kinda bored, and the boss doesn't mind as long as I'm all caught up on my work). Then I play about 3 hours of 360 per weeknight.

Weekends - I play anywhere from 5-20 hours.

i use to play much more when i was younger. But it's very hard to find the time to play with college, work, girlfriend and friends. I could play more but studying > videogames.

1-2 hours on weekdays...sometimes none during the week

On the weekend I usually spend 3-8 hours depending on what I'm doing that specific weekend.

I think it would've worked better as hours put in within a week's time. I usually only game on the weekends for around 4-6 hours. But that's only a couple times a month at most when the girlfriend isn't around or I don't have anything to do. I wish I could play more...

When I went to school I would play games like crazy. Now that I'm working I read more about video games than I actually play them. I'm usually thinking about playing games and procrastinating all the time. But I also blame work.

When I get a new game I play 20-25hrs a week. When I finish that game, I go back to my old games and the time drops to about 10-15hrs a week. I've been hammering Lost Odyssey (great game) lately and need to start my uni assignment :?

im way too addicted to gaming, i need help. its all i talk about, when i go to bed its what im thinking about. i have to have every new game on the release date. lol i need to see a shrink. i honestly spend 6-7 hours daily on video games, maybe even more. tomarrow i am going to get the new mlb and preorder army of two and rainbow six vegas 2. and maybe dark sector, i allready have gta 4 paid off. i get money, and i spend it on games!!!ag3ntz3rox0x

I think I share the same problem, partially. I've been gaming since I was a little boy and I dont plan to stop anytime soon. I have to admit, gaming is a lifestyle for some but I manage to maintain and manage my career, hold down the bills, and take care of my responsibilities. I too, feel compelled to own the hottest titles on the market. Sometimes, I find myself pre-ordering games because I want to be guaranteed a copy on its release day. Sometimes, I go to sleep thinking about my experience on video game. But usually, I knock out before I could even get a chance, because my eyes were so tired from playing Gears of War multiplayer online, until the early morning :lol:. If I wasnt a financial services business owner, I would probably be working as a video game editor, or some guy on a dev team making games for you fabulous people. And then, there are days I could gave a rat's hoot about games. Those are my cloudier days. Rest assured, gaming is not only fun, but it takes you into a fantasy world where you can live out some people's imaginations.

It depends.. On a weekday I put in an hour or less. On weekends, I play 1-3 hours. My wife and I work full-time and we have a 1/2 year old son. My 1-3 hours of play come in while he's napping.
