ARE YOU KIDDING ME!??!!?

I used to stay up all night playing counterstrike!

ALL NIGHT! my knees would hurt because id sit on them on my chair for hours and hours and stop for nothing but food and bathroom! :P

TheFirstDuffMan 11-25-2003 10:43 PM

I played Subspace probably about 80-100hours a week every week for a few months

Easytiger 11-26-2003 02:14 PM

Damn, I thought I was pretty into my gaming, but I'm a wuss compared to most of you guys. I reckon the longest I've played was the first time I played Carmageddon- which must have been about eight hours straight. Though I might have played Diablo II for about ten hours one stinking hot summer day, just because I had nothing better to do.

Carmageddon is a sick game to play that long. My poor roommate back when I was a freshman had issues with that game. He said it gave him nightmares.

I'd say StarCraft cost me many, many hours of much needed sleep :D

skaterpunk 12-01-2003 12:48 AM

not til a lil after diabloii came out.... my friends were asians and taught me how to kickass... so i stayed over for 2 1/2 days and played straight.... i left when someone hit a power box and cut the powre from the neighborhood... then i went to mcdonalds got some good fries.... skated for about 2 hours... then went back home to the energy back up... and played on my crapier computer..... wow....but that break stops the time i guess.

seizei 12-01-2003 01:56 AM

38 hours camping the Raster Idol for monk epic in Everquest.

I wanted to die.

gah fear raids had such potential to turn into hair-pulling brain fucks when they went bad. At least in the old days, when fear was the baddest ass place you could go ;)

Lassus 12-01-2003 02:07 AM

sartan 12-26-2003 08:40 AM

I've pulled a couple of all-nighters.

heccubusiv 12-27-2003 06:57 AM

used to play Gauntlet for NES all night long and a few times my friends and I used to have lan parties that ran for 3 straight days. The only time that was not spend on gaming was for 4 hours a sleep a day.

WannabeTFP 12-27-2003 07:00 AM

I would say at least a few all-nighters due to Ultima Online Beta. Damn them.

HiThereDear 12-27-2003 02:57 PM

i feel as though my geekhood is insufficient, i've only played for at most 8 hours straight.

Kllr Wolf 12-27-2003 10:00 PM

I have spent an entire weekend form the time I got off work on friday till I should ahve gone to work on monday (called in sick). I must have taken naps when the maps and such loaded but that is about it. of course it was at a lan party wehre it is eaiser to stay awake.

MSD 12-27-2003 11:54 PM

Put me down for 38 hours. Good night.

Mr.Deflok 12-28-2003 12:42 PM

Jesus, how do you guys do it? I only play an hour at a time these days (at the most). But like I said before I pulled a whole day and nighter on Final Fantasy VIII.

Smackre 12-28-2003 02:33 PM

ive stayed up for 60 hours strait playing EQ. Dam game. That was when kunark just came out and we cleared pog a multiple times and i got my beserker BP )

DonnChadh 12-31-2003 02:05 PM

just spent 8 hours last night playing Civ3, was up till 6am

longest ever was around 40 hours at a Lan Party hyped up on a mix of Red Bull and Pure Orange Juice (good for when ur hiking, bad when ur sat in front of a PC)

VF19 12-31-2003 02:23 PM

I played Diablo II when I got it last October for like a weekend.
I still play all nighters on it, but.. a weekend.

CivIII is cool game but I wish I had the online version. It would be so much cooler.

Shokan 12-31-2003 07:17 PM

12-14 hours playing Rampage for the NES with a friend.

Godammit, we beat it.

laxman18 01-01-2004 11:07 AM

8 in the morning to 8 in the next morning playing Spearhead

Gothmog 01-02-2004 12:10 AM

Waaay back in the spring of 92, during spring vacation, my buddy and I locked ourselves in the computer lab @ college and played X-wing for 3 days straight.

We would take turns getting food/sleeping/peeing, etc.

Damn we were nuts.

InTeGrA77 01-03-2004 03:41 PM

I went through a FF stage and I played FFVII practically all day every day until I got to the end of the game where there weren't any save point, and once I got to that point I played it for over 24 hours straight till I beat it. I immediatley passed out after that though...:lol:

I also played FFVIII even MORE religiously than I did VII. It took much longer to beat though. But I remember playing it for a little under 24 hours one day. I still play it every once in a while, because theres so many things that you can miss on those games.

Cakewalk12 01-04-2004 04:57 PM

Heheheheh... well, I can't get close to beating any of you in your times... but I will tell you, back in the day, from the end of June to the beginning of September, there would be about 12 hours of computer gaming A DAY. I wouldn't go to people's houses, so if they wanted to visit they would have to come over and watch. I never ate supper once in the summer that year... man, Civ II, Diablo I, etc... If you multiply the 70 days I spent about on average 10 hours playing... that's 700 hours in 3 months (20 days of doing things not involving computer gaming, like... BUYING computer games!) Anyway, nowadays, I still play turn-based strategy but not as often, and most recent games I've bought (Call of Duty, Max Payne 2, Prince of Persia) I've all beaten in one or two sittings. Quite disappointing, when you WANT to have a marathon gaming session but the game just isn't long enough to even last ya the afternoon. :( Anyways, to all those who've demolished my record of 18 hours, congradulations! I'll see what I can do to beat the all-time record, which seems to be... 2 weeks. Crap!

legolas 01-04-2004 09:58 PM

I would spend all day playing starcraft broodwar... ah the days...

Empty_One 01-05-2004 06:02 AM

Worst I've done was from Friday after work (6pm), untill about 3am sunday night/monday morning, with 30 minute cat naps on the couch about every 12 hours or so.

Damn that EQ addiction. I notice I'm not the only one here that had one. :)

phoenix1002 01-05-2004 03:30 PM

Hmm... I don't know definite times, but I'd say easily 10 hours of playing... many, many times I've noticed the sun coming up, with me thinking it was still 11ish... Starcraft, Diablo, D2, and Counterstrike... damn you all!

Anyone seen screenshots for halflife 2? I can already sense my grades dropping...

maximus 01-05-2004 11:25 PM

weeks at a time i used to play diablo 2 almost 24 7. i got fired from my job, lost my gf, didnt talk to my family, never seen most of my friends, lived in my freinds beroom, and ate 1000's of stacker 2s (it was when they 1st came out). but at 1 time i would have to say it was at least 4 or 5 days playing d2. people used to msg me (my name was ed_templton) and ask me if i ever slept. i thought many of times i was having a heart attack from the stacker 2. man i hated that game (when i say hated i mean loved).

o and i forgot about the times the ladder reseted, those were the longest streaks EVER!

MexicanOnABike 01-06-2004 06:26 PM

recently played Minesweeper for 10 hours.(jk)
i did play kellyslaters pro surfer for a long time... about 12hours. such a good game... but now my arms are dead.

viper11885 01-07-2004 11:08 PM

Some of you people are crazy!! :D

For me, probably the most is about 7 hours. That was quite a few years ago.

Nowadays, I just don't have much time to spend on playing games. Not to mention that there also aren't that many good titles out right now. So my interest has lowered.

When a good game does come out, I do try to make sure that I spend time playing it and finishing it as well. Just not all in one sitting tough :D

And then, Goldeneye for probably 10-12 hours at least I think. God, I love and miss that game. Archives, Remote Mines ONLY!!!, No Odd Job, One Hit kills....the memories. :)
Are you my long lost friend? Seriously.

Yalaynia 01-09-2004 10:45 PM

I was addicted to playing Everquest and Dark Age of Camelot. I ranged anywhere from 12 to 20 hours plus.

Hrothgar 01-09-2004 11:01 PM

Last night I started playing EQ at 4pm and didn't get off untill 630am. Those LDoN adventures are addicting. Hehe i'm writing this while my cleric is in trader mode in the bazaar.

Man/Amazing 01-10-2004 07:36 AM

I've play BF1942 DC for a good 9 hours.

Homey_V 01-10-2004 10:55 AM

I've been to several 72 and 48 hour LANs where I've stayed up the whole stretch, and I've sat down and played several games from start to finish out of the box. Not so much anymore though. Damn school occupies too much time these days...

8truck 01-23-2004 12:39 PM

right now playing bf1942, played sunday morning till monday morning, then slept 2 hours ,didnt go to my 2nd job stayed home and played till tuesday morning lol, bf1942 is the bomb!

irateplatypus 01-26-2004 11:21 PM

several all-nighters with FF II on SNES. But, nothing can top the first two days after I discovered the pure gaming joy of The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past.

Rawrr 01-27-2004 07:47 AM

Hrm played DAoC till about 6AM for a couple nights :crazy:

Jephree 01-27-2004 10:52 AM

All day and nighter (1 1/2 days) playing The Legend of Zelda for NES. Man, those were the good old days. Stay up all night on the weekends playing video games. Wish I were a kid again

bonehed1 01-27-2004 04:37 PM

I've played EQ from 7pm (friday) to 1am (monday). Had to take the usual get chips/soday and pee breaks but other then that all you could see is a blue light flashing from my room. EQ was the bomb back in the day....
