High School took up more time, 7 hours+activities up to 3 hours, homework and studies 1hr or more a day.
College 3 hours+ variable hours homework and studies.

Not only that but when I was in High School there was this thing called 'Family' where you had to spend random amounts of time with.

High School and College both have 'Friends' and 'Work'.

So in the end its all about the choices you make.

Oh, you will be doing far greater things than gaming. ;)

May I say how easy and quick games of Mario Kart, Splatoon, Smash, and Mario 3D world (1 or 2 stages) are... Just gonna throw it out there. Also there is a drinking Mario Party game where... Well I said too much already...

I had the same fears back when I was in High School: I loved my late nights gaming and I was worried that I would have to give them up completely in University.  The truth is, though, that while you will have less time for gaming, you will always find time for the things that you are passionate about.

Depending on how demanding your degree is, a lot of people will probably tell you that you won't have time (or money) for gaming because they didn't.  What they aren't telling you, though, is that they still had time to party on weekends and do all kinds of extra-curricular activities that consumed their free time and money.  The reality is that unless you are trying to get admitted into Medicine or you are going to be working a part time job in addition to school, you will still have some free time.  Even in a particularly challenging undergrad program, unless you are going for absolute top marks, 10 - 15 hours of free time each week is totally reasonable (and healthy) to aim for.  And that's not even counting the large spans of time when you won't even be taking classes.

The bigger question, though, is: will your passion remain gaming throughout college?  A lot of changes happen during this time and I had friends who met their significant others during their degrees and so their passions changed tremendously.  I think given how passionate you are about gaming, it will always be a part of your life but it may have to share the spotlight with more important extra-curricular priorities as time goes on. :)

Yea it sucks but thats all part of life....your going to have to prioritize whats important and manage your time. Trust me, you do this and you will have time to play games. Not as much as your used to but you will.

For example. I really want a wii u but decided not to buy one as i have games i have to play on the platform i already have. I will however will get one when zedla u releases. Now a days i buy and play one game at a time due to alwayd being busy. This works for me as im not focus on more then one thing!

I work full time and have the money to afford any game but due to time and interest i only play a select few. Really think about the games you want to play and whats important to you and choose those. Saddly the other less important games will either not get played or will forever be in your back log.

Yup, college life can kill gaming life. But only depends on which one is more enjoyable for you. Studies are part of both BTW (just look at the thesis some people write in here). Anyway, there is something that can kill any other "life" more than college: Kids. So it doesn't matter where you are in college, make sure you are always protected. Parenthood and many other life threatening conditions spread fast in there. You'll always be in danger.
