Forums - Gaming Discussion - Longest single session of playing one game?

Probably wanna say Tales of the Abyss for 3DS. Any Tales game can be very extended if you allow it to be.

Xenoblade Chronicles will probably beat that once I pick that up today.

Then XCX, when that comes out, will be by far the longest.

I always have a rule with me. To never avoid sleep. I don't ever want to feel that horrible wake up. So no matter what i'm doing, I go to sleep at 2am every time. So those 24 hr marathons people. Nope.

2am to 10am seems to be my best sleeping pattern, if I don't have work to get up for I tend to settle into sleeping those hours. If I try earlier than 1am I just end up taking too long to get to sleep, or later than 2.30 and I get to sleep fast but I don't feel well rested when I wake.

Unfortunately work forces me into 11-7 sleep pattern, I get roughly the same amount of sleep but it doesn't seem as good.



12 hours, for Metroid other M. Didn't like the game, but felt like finishing it quick as possible to get it over with.

Hmm, I had a similar experience with MadWorld. Luckily that game is nowhere near 12 hours long.

26. From 4 pm to after 6 the next day with maybe an hour and a half away from the controller. Oblivion.



Around 44 hours with meals, bathroom breaks and a few showers.



17 hours, Co-op zombies, Black Ops.

After 17 hours we took a sleeping break. Then when we woke up we continued xD.



9th grade. Got suspended from school on purpose to binge-play Ocarina of Time. More than 24 hours of straight play with only pauses and bathroom breaks in-between. Finished the game in less than 1 weekend. Now I'm married with children and binge-play is no longer feasable.



PC GAMING: BEST GAMES. WORST CONTROLS

A mouse & keyboard are made for sending email and typing internet badassery. Not for playing video games!!!

The longest play session I had, was when I was like 5 or 6. Ocarina of Time. 20 hours. Needed long enough to get to the Watertemple, just to get stuck because of that damn key glitch.

After some time I realized, that the temple was impossible to complete and my elder brother told me, that I had to restart. And so I did...
