    Default Am I the only one who frequently play games all night?

    Last night I think I beat my record at playing a game non-stop: I started playing FF2 (the Origins version) at 6 PM, and then I kept playing almost non-stop until 8 AM the next day.
    I made it from the Dreadnought all the way to the Cyclone!
    That's sick.
    This happens pretty often, too; right now I feel pretty tired, but I KNOW I'm gonna play FF2 for a few hours before going to sleep.

    This happens to me all the time during the weekends, when I playing games like Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy, Paper Mario, and pretty much anything I have.

    I don't have time to be doing such things like that anymore, though another all-nighter would be fun to keep in mind for the future. Maybe Final Fantasy IV or Star Ocean 3.

    Edit: Well, this isn't necessarily a speed-run kind of thing, is it...

    I've played Diablo II all through the night and straight into morning before. It made me feel like a glob of morbid satisfaction.

    Nighttime after all the kiddies go to bed is the only time I have for interrupted play. As for playing until 8am, usually not (it has been known to happen on occasion). Most of the time this happens when I get to the final area in a game (most recently it was Ultimecia's Castle) and I think, "oh it just a few more bosses and then I'll finish the game." And I do, five or six hours later.

    If I slept all day ( which is the case alot these days ), its likely I'd be playing games into the early hours of the morning, thus making the cycle continue. So no, your not the only one.

    Very seldom do I actually stay up all night. Right now, I just don't have the time to, and if I did, I'd probably get pretty tired after a while and stop.

    I have played games all night (from probably 4PM one day to 8AM the next) at a LAN party. Which was megafun.

    i'm finding myself to be on the pc more often from the very late hours of 1 - 2:30am, but it is still rare to not find me with my most favorite hobby: video-game nostalgia. so, staying up late might be considered a bad habit, or, i am just more active during the nightly hours.

    I can play a few games all night. I get a little burnt out playing just one game for too long though.

    I can't play games all night as much as I did when I was in High School 'cause I have work and actually have to be awake for that.
    But when I do end up playing games someone has to stop me, I ended up playing Katamari Damacy until 4am and then saw the clock, and then when I got FFXII I had work early the next day and my dad came by my room halfway awake being all "Go to sleep!!" then I realized it was 3am.. I thought it was like 11pm.

    I used to do that all the time. In fact, most of my rpg's were beat that way. These days though, I just cant do it. School takes a lot of my time, plus I'm getting old.

    The only major comparable session I had is when I played The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap start to finish and didn't turn off the DS. That was epic and also headache inducing.

    I played FFVIII for twenty-seven straight hours, only stopping to eat and pee. I used to play video games for hours at a time, but now I'm too busy with life.
