CONTINOUS GAMING!!

[wizrulz]

I have read many reports of continous gaming in foreign countries....so i was wondering how many hours gaming forum members have indulged in and in which game? I have played many games continously and max i can play a game continously is for 10 hrs continously on holidays and games which i played is a big list as i usually like to play only 1 game on given day and continously play it till its time for other work or sleeping time.......
1. PES 5
2. Total club manager 2005
3. Rome Total War
4. COD .............etc
5. Counter strike these all games i found very addictive to complete a task and i kept playing and playing with no sense of time......
Please do share ur experiences fo continous gaming

I don't really remember how long I've gone with one particular one, but I do remember that my eyes were red and sore after I got up . But seriously, it was from 8PM to 11:30AM the next day, and it was NFS: UG. At that time, the underground/tuner scene seemed just so cool...

I and my friend used to play commandos beyond enemy lines for hours . and that to during exams. i played like 6 hrs at a stretch. i remeber i had exam at 9 am and we played till 4 AM. sadly i flunked the exam

I have played for 23 hrs continuous. I had my lunch dinner while playing, not on a computer but the Sega 16 bit that I got on rent for a day. My right hand thumb was swollen after continuous tapping of the controller.
I had long sessions of gaming when I got my first computer.
I play at most 2 hrs a session these days, not more than that, even If the game is too addictive.

[coolendra]

1 ) HALO

[vmp_vivek]

U were half dead then

CAuse a man who died playing games plaed for 48 hrs

[tarey_g]

Not half dead , I was half idiot (havin sega genesis home for one day was the biggest joy for me that time )
and the man who played for 48 hrs was full idiot , and then ppl blame games for such incidents , u will die even if u study for 48 hrs. blame studies then . nothing is good if done excessively.

[mehulved]

tarey_g even has a avatar of a dead man hanging.
As for me the most I've played is beneath a steel sky for 4 hours yesterday.
I know its not a big popular games like you'll have played but with my system it is the best I can get and I am not that avid a gamer + no pirated softwares on my computer.

My longest gaming session is about 14 hours on my Xbox - from 6 AM to 8 PM, though including bathroom and meal breaks. It was when I had just bought the Xbox and couldn't get enough of Halo: CE.

My longest non-stop gaming session is of about 8 hours - from 10 PM to 6 AM the next day. I played my then favourite game Max Payne on the PC. I finished the game twice during the session.

I believe My longest session was with My Nintendo 8-bit console for a straight 15Hours(Inclusive of Lunch and Loo breaks ).Since Mario and Contra were My heart Favourite games back then I couldnt get enough of them.The next after that I belive was roughly a 12 Hour session with The Mummy on the Playstation with My Cousin Brother.

[Satissh S]

I played POP WW for almost 18 hrs this weekend and finished it as i had left it unfinished for two months as i didn't get time.
I will play splinter-cell pandora tomorrow, from now on. I remember soaking up on terminator TV Videogame consoles for days during my annual holidays in school times.. those were fun times

[GameAddict]

The max. I played was 13 hours non-stop(no bio-breaks too) for Jagged Alliance 2. No other game engaged me so much....

[shaunak]

Call of duty :> 9hrs continueous
MS combat filght simulator:> 6.5 hrs (the the game got over !!!)

[baccilus]

FIFA 06 Nine hours. from 9:30PM to 5:30AM next day. 7-8 hours is really common.

[mav3r1ck]

i am a game addict. nothing gives me more high than games. OK here goes my list, may not be in chronological order, i am typing them as they come to my mind. and i am not boasting either. 8) but these addictive games were finished in a single seating i.e from waking up till going to bed (of course all necessary breaks included), count the hours yourself -

Max Payne (my window to the FPS world) and Max Payne 2,
Call of Duty,
MOH-pacific assault,
Shell Shock 'Nam67 ( i just like to play any War based game)
NFS UG and UG2, (just couldn't get my hands off those modded cars)
Counter Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes (single player missions)
POP:The Sands of Time(never thought sword fighting could be so exciting)
Splinter Cellandora tomorrow(short and sweet game)
Comanche 4 (and all those Fighter Jet Sims)
Hitman 1 and 2.
Delta Force Series.

nowadays don't have time to spend in front of my PC but still try to finish off games within a week. e.g games given below were finished within 7 days or less due to time constraint

Doom3
BIA-Road to hill 30
POP-The Warrior Within
NFS-MW
Postal 2 (totally illogical game)
Shadow Ops: Red Mercury
Battlefield Vietnam
Halo
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
....and many more which i can't remember (feeling sleepy u see )
tell u all l8r.
