What's the longest you've played a game for in a day?

[Nyan Cat]

I'm probably going to get yelled by saying this but... 17 hours of WoW. With a break every 6 hours. It was fun!

Not trying to belittle your efforts or anything, but i and some people i know have gone for weeks with as much as 6 hours of sleep a day. Luckily my days of WoW are behind me.

 

[The Night Shade]

6 hours on MGS 1 i finish it 4 times the same day

 

[Thegreyfox666]

24 hours, WotLK release day

 

[gamptrak]

Mass Effect 2. i had gotten the game right when my exams started so i couldn't play it for fear i wouldn't study, and i was correct in my assumption. When my exams finished and i went on exam break i must have played about 13 hours in a day and in a 5-day period logged about 50 hours of gameplay. It was a fun time.

 

[Aerodynamic]

4 hours.

I don't play much daily, even when I do, I can't play one single game without getting bored of it after a while.

 

[Nautical Honors Society]

I've probably played a good 8-10 hours of WoW. Put 6 down recently on the Reach Beta.

 

[robb4rock6]

17 hour run though off FFX

 

[Vivace-Vivian]

24 hours on Oblivion.

 

[Kevlar Eater]

I once spent 21 hours playing Guild Wars, took a nap for a couple hours and ate a little, then played for 15 more hours before sleeping (or passing out, I forget).

 

[AMX58]

MLB the show 09 (i know last years model) but yeah last sat from 8 pm to 7 am non stop

 

[Comma-Kazie]

24 hours--it was a weekend, and my campus gaming club was seeing who would last how long. (I lasted longest, of course)

For anyone who's curious, I was playing Dragon Age: Origins the entire time.

 

[Anthropaphagi]

Back in the day when I had substantially more free time, I played Phantasy Star 3 for probably 19 hours with minimal breaks for bathroom and not much else. I'd done similar with Final Fantasy 7.

It takes its toll, particularly Phantasy Star 3, which I actually ended up having bizarre dreams where I needed to learn Spanish to raise a level.

Not to mention, your bottom really goes numb after a while...

 

[gally912]

Only time I had to invest that kind of time was when I was a kid, and I hit the golden age of RPG's for the computer.

I have logged full, 24 hour sessions on
Fallout 1
BGII
Planescape Torment
and Starcraft.

 

[ThePostalGamer]

Not as impressive as most that I've seen here, but I've done Dead Rising's 7 Day Survivor and Zombie Genocider achievement on two different Gamertags without taking a break. Tedious, but worth it.

I don't think I could possibly stay awake for 24 hours straight playing a single game. I think I'd lose my mind.

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

I'm sure I've put in a number of 12+ hour marathons on single games in the past. I also know that I have put 24+ hours into a number of games in a single sitting as well. The particular games and specific time frames are lost to me. I do know that games like Tribes, Goleneye and Team Fortress Mega were adept at stealing away the weekends of my youth.

 

[Beacon]

I played Heavy Rain from beginning to end about two days ago...I think it took 8 hours...

I know I've played Soul Silver for at least 10 hours
And Monster Hunter Tri from 4 pm to 6 am...so 14 hours
But I think Fallout 3 would take the cake with a nice 20 hour run, sleep for six hours, then another 20 hours...

 

[Xanthious]

Did just short of 48 hours for Lich King and just over 36 hours for Burning Crusade. As for Cat, well I have plans to hit or surpass the 48 hour mark in order to hit a bunch of realm first achievements on my rogue.
