I have a window from 5:30 pm to 10 pm from which I will either game or binge watch a blu-ray purchased seasons of my choice Monday thru. Friday. I usually mix it up game some of those days and blu-ray the others. Now Saturday and Sunday minus the NASCAR sprint cup races is an all weekend event for me (15-22 hours of gaming).

My social life is my gaming life, my brothers and my son all live in different cities, 100's of miles apart and this is how we link up. My brothers and I have been gaming since the early 80's (arcade and Atari) and also have cousins and nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles that also team up. We make up large squads in shooters, guilds in RPG's and will wreck total hell on the unexpected or ill-prepared.

Where I work internet was not available up until just a 2 months ago, and I intend to set up a gaming section in my office to fill some of the space between 6 am and 5 pm. I usually only game hard on 5 to 8 games a year, but this should help to start putting in some 50+ hour gaming weeks.

I have about 20 games on Xbox still in plastic, and the same with Xbox 360, PS3, DS, 3DS, and WII. I have been able to stay "mostly" current on PS4.

Answer: I make the time.

I'm doing programming in school, so everything I do is assignments. Very few tests, meaning no studying really needed, and no papers/exams. I tend to have a lot of free time because of this. I shoooooould be using a lot of this free time to get better at programming, but I'm a huge procrastinator, so I end up spending that time playing games, or watching YouTube videos and TV shows.

That's kind of what a lot of my studies comprise of too... Programming can take a ridiculous amount of time sometimes!

Yeah, especially by the end of semesters.
