    Default Longest Gaming Session

    What's your longest, nonstop, continual gaming session? Only causing a brief hiatus whenever one needs to go to the restroom.

    No sleep, no leaving the computer/console for any reason other than using the restroom, what is your sad/glorious record of a non-stop gaming session?

    Mine was 32 hours with the game Fable: The Lost Chapters.

    I hardly have the attention span to spend too much time on a game without taking a substantial break.

    My longest gaming session, with switching off between various games, would've been a LAN party I had once where we stayed up playing for probably 18 hours. There was more than one game involved, though; Quake 3 Arena, Unreal Tournament, Diablo II, etc.

    My brother and I rented Ogre Battle for SNES way back when. As soon as we got home, we started playing it and never stopped until the next day when were going to bed. A little over 24 hours.

    On my first day I got FFIV GBA, I played for like 14 hours straight. I got almost to the end of the game,

    I don't really spend huge blocks of time gaming all at once. I like to have other activities interspersed in there. I think I remember a few occasions when I pushed well past 10 hours of play though.

    no matter how important something might be (ie. a giant meteor is in the sky and threatening the planet) you can always just stop in at the Golden Saucer and gamble on some dodos running around a track.

    Probably 11-15 hours (I have to sleep, you know). I just played FFI DoS all day and completed it before sundown. I also played FFIV Advance all day when I first bought it, and got to the Tower of Babel (the overworld one) on the first day. I beat the game on the second, and did the optional crap on the third. It was awesome.

    11-15 hours playing Final Fantasy VIII, same amount of time playing Dungeon Siege (beat it, too).

    The longest time I've spent using a computer though is like...41 hours or something crazy like that. Oh summer, how I love thee.

    I think I played Morrowind for like 10 hours once. Give or take. I had to stop because my brain started to eat itself. Like, I saw all these black blotches and couldn't walk properly. Man, that was scary.
