What was the longest period you left your PC/console on?

[Sronpop]

My computer sleeps when I sleep, and will shut down when I shut down.

Lol not really, my parents are freeks for turning off stuff so the nothing has ever been on more than a few days.

 

[Plauged1]

I kept me and my ps1 up for three days straight trying to defeat the final boss in Legend of Dragoon. Totally worth it.

Second longest, kept the nintendo on for two days attempting to beat Castlevania. NOT worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think four days once for an MST3K torrent.

My brother once left the PS2 on for about 5 days, then when I turned it off he ran downstairs and said "What the hell!?! I had a game on pause!"

PS3: About 8 hours, when I first got it and was playing Resistance.

PC: A week. I was really sick and didn't have the energy to walk to the computer room to turn it off when it was time to go to sleep.

PS2: A whole day. Back when I didn't have a memory card cause all the stores were fucking sold out. Anyone else remember that shit?

 

[ElephantGuts]

Never even overnight. I hate the idea of appliances running unnecessarily.

 

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

I left my old Playstation on for the entire summer break. I mean, like a week before we got off til a month after we got back.

And I still didn't beat the game.

I usually turn off my laptop every night, because I noticed that if I don't, it'll be buggy in the morning. But I've left a desktop (xp) on for over a week once...then the parents turned it off.

My gaming rig shuts down when I am not using it.

My storage computer has been on for two years minus a one week power outage, and three days to upgrade the drives at one point, It was on for 14 months after all was said and done and it was ready for use, until a storm knocked the power out for a week.

PC? Approximately 4 months is my record for no-restart. However, that's just a restart to flush the memory. Actually switching it off? Hasn't occurred since I built it about a year ago. Well, rebuilt, as I had to fit a new cooling fan.

 

[RapidCrash]

Anytime straight is probably around a month. Usually I'll turn it off for less than an hour for necessary reboot or reformat.

 

[Ninonybox_v1legacy]

left my gamecube on for about a week....didn't have room on my memory card for animal crossing so...

 

[The Hitman]

I half Torrented something, took 3 days, crashed on about 70%. No, I didn't sit and watch as the progress bar increase bit by bit, but, yes maybe there was a small tear in my frustrated eye. That was a very difficult time for me... sniff
