I played Digimon World for 3 days, wake up to sleep in the summer, my dad told me to go outside and play, I was like "alright" lulz.

Oh. Could be anything. I know I played Animal crossing without a memory card on GC once over a long weekend. I also remember having a week off from work and playing Far Cry 4 the whole time. Though, anytime I have a new game by itself, Ill play that for a long time without stopping. Like if I have time off work...
---

12 hours probably. These days I'd be lucky to even play for 4.
---

30 hours way back on the NES when I was a teenager

13 hours or so.
Friend and I co-oped Dead Rising 2 together in one sitting when the game came out. We had both beaten it once and then co-oped it for achievements. Didn't expect it to take that long and we had a half hour dinner break.
---

No idea how long. But I know I use to play Sims 2 to the point it would be unhealthy.

Its weird to be super concerned about your sim eating and sleeping mean while neglecting your own food and rest needs.
---

Excluding sleep is for lightweights. When I first got Pokemon Blue, I played it 26 hours straight.
---

WoW, on expansion launches, not sure the total time

Man, for a long time I didn't have a memory card for my PS1, so I kept playing through the beginning of Mega Man Legends without saving. I think a couple times I got about halfway through the game.

People who didn't play in the PS1/PS2 era won't know the struggle of not being able to save. Older games saved to the cartridge (if they saved at all), and newer games require hard drives or other methods of memory.
---

Empire earth 2 art of conquest. I started during school and did a bunch of math to improve my numbers and when summer hit I was on the computer almost every waking hour putting that into practice. I was pretty good too, but I hated EE3 so I dropped the game when they dropped support for the aoc servers.
---

Last week I played Borderlands 2 for 15 hours
---

Planescape: Torment.

I played it from beginning to end. Didn't get all the hidden stuff but probably finished 80 to 90% of the game.

The story. I just couldn't stop.
---

I would hold camps in EverQuest for entire 2 week vacations.

About 12 hours, although that was over a decade ago.
---

11.5 hours of Pokemon Alpha Sapphire. Mostly hatching eggs for shinies lol
---

Path of Exile I did around 36 hours straight without sleep.
In retrospect that was a giant waste of time. I was trying to prove I was good at a game I would never be good at.

Longest games by sheer hours are Runesacpe at around 3500 and STO at around 3000 (which will ironically be the very last game I ever play -- hopefully).

Yep, same problem. SEGA in Australia totally screwed up the Dreamcast launch and there was a 2-3 week delay on the memory cards

Did Sonic Adventure again properly after they came out.. but dang it if those memory cards ate up the batteries in a couple of hours

I once played a single game of Joust for over 6 hours. Racked up a score of 6.7 million. I figured out how to kill the pterodactyl 99% of the time, so I basically beat the game at that point.

The longest I've played a modern game (with saves) is probably Skyrim. I put in about 1000 hours on a single character. That's because I run around doing all the stupid side quests and never do anything about the main quest. And I go almost everywhere on foot instead of fast traveling. And I pick every single freaking flower and mushroom I find, so it takes 5 times longer to get anywhere because "Ooh, piece of candy. Ooh, piece of candy. Ooh, piece of candy." and the next thing I know I'm half way across the map in the wrong direction.
---

I played Morrowind for like a week straight when it came out. You could say I was "addicted" to Diablo II so there were long stretches with that game as well.
---

Maybe two hours. I could never play video games for a long time without getting bored. A lot of times I stayed awake overnight playing video games during sleep overs but I wasn't actively playing for too long before letting someone else play.

yeh, I lost that drive now too, Like I could play a game for an hour to two now, but I would deviate to something else nowadays like internet or something I have to do. Although I miss playing liek Super Mario RPg with cousins taking turns with our characters or taking turns on the world map.
---

27 1/7 hours

Without taking a break, around 40 hours on Gauntlet IV (Mega Drive), playing Arcade mode. Turns out the game repeats levels. :P
---

I played Breath of the Wild for about 16 hours straight on launch weekend.
---

Pretty much any game I rented from the video store back in the 80's and early 90's. I think the last rental I had was NBA Jam, it was during February break at school. I had a 3 day rental, and all I did for those 3 days was sleep, eat, and play that game.
---

maybe like 3-6 hours? When i was younger, it was probably towards the upper end, but 6 hours just seems like so long to just play a video game.
idk though

Everyone else figured out what he means, I'm sure you can too
---

Gotta be ffxi. I did just about nothing but play that game and sleep for like 2 weeks. Ate a little of course. A day would go by in what felt like a few hours
---

Skyrim and Fallout 4 release week. No idea how long I played those weeks.

Two hours.
---

Probably 11 hours, we did eat for like 20 minutes though.

Beat the original Unreal over LAN with a friend in a day.

Dont think I've ever been in a longer constant stream of gaming without breaks.

Excluding sleep? I can only guess at that, but I think something around 200 hours (FF13 on a 100% run, alternating with bouts of Minecraft). It helps that I sleep on my living room couch anyway, and have a tendency to get through my grinding in games while I'm sort of half-awake. ;D

Not excluding sleep, my longest gaming run was 52 hours. I know that was an FF game too, but for some reason I can't recall now whether it was VIII, IX or XII - I do think one of those. I was still a teenager when I did that. Couldn't now, not with chronic fatigue as a factor! But *excluding* sleep is for lightweights, lol. Unless you're disabled.

The new DLC isnt 15 hours long. It's like 2 and its meh. Nothing really happens.

Meh. Other than Tiny Tina dlc, the majority of Borderlands 2 dlc can be resumed to "you shoot stuff and nothing really happens."

Beta Maplestory for a week straight minus sleep and poops when my grandmother was dying and my mom was out of town to see her and my dad was at work. It was summer vacation.
---

Oh shit I forgot about Maplestory. Right around the time I dropped out of College I got into that game heavy. It's prolly that over FO76

You get some OP ass Sniper Rifle for beating the DLC. It's a Armor/Shield Piercing gun.

Interesting.

I actually use the Borderlands 2 reborn mod since it makes the game more enjoyable.
---

Maybe 16 hours playing RuneScape

I was addicted to Clan Wars

I'm playing through it now with a friend, and I think it has the same quality as the other dlc packs. Its fun! I also find it interesting to see the devs putting out a dlc 6 years or so after the last one, without skipping a beat. The story is particularly rewarding for those who beat Tales from the Borderlands.
---

Been doing that with Borderlands 1 for the past few days, still need to clear 3 of the DLCs

when Breath of the Wild came out i played it from launch at midnight until around 7:30am that morning and passed out for the whole day

Lol, sounds like me the day Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire first came out.

I went to the midnight release party in the nearest town in my witch costume. After that, I had to wait until about 7AM for the first bus back to my village, so I spent the whole time just sitting reading. I finished it in 6 hours 30 minutes for 636 pages (UK 1st edition), so about a page & two-thirds per minute, I think?

I was 14 at the time, so don't knock it =P
