I thought I didn't have it in me anymore, but I've just spent exactly 12 hours playing FFX-2, stopping only for a dinner break. I haven't done this since middle school.

What's the longest any of you have vegged out in front of a game?

Hard to say... most likely Neverwinter Nights. I believe my record for that is 4:00 PM - ~8:00 AM, with a quick meal thrown in there somewhere (eaten while playing, of course). I've never quite repeated that feat, though Morrowind, Knights of the Old Republic, and Star Wars Galaxies come close on several occasions.

For my better records, most were when I was a freshman in college.

22 hours FF6, and 23(and beating) Lunar.

Most of the time I just do 5-6 hours spurts if the game is that enthralling.

I remember playing Sim City 3000 for 10 hours, from 10PM to 8AM, but that's pretty much it.

14 hours on one game of Civilisation III, was doing rather well and didnt want to quit, as if I quit the game and save it, I tend to have a short attention span when I'm coming back to - oooh, a turtle with a gun!

I dont know about non-stop but Ive played games from 10am to 2-3am before. Usually stopping for a single meal.

Cant do this when Im working and its mostly a thing of the past now.

Back in Middle School, I played X-com: UFO Defense for 42 hours straight. I survived on four pizza deliveries and a mini-fridge of cokes. I only left the computer for bathroom and to get the door when the pizza guy came.

Ahhh, those were the days.

I think one time i played empire earth for like most of a day. IT just keeps going and going and going...

There was that time we played RE2 all ways back to back.

We've played a sickening amount of HL and derivatives at lans.

6 hours playing Descent 2 online non-stop......

I was totally wasted afterwards, but it certainly helped my kill/death percentage. :D Went from 34% to something like 50%. Also got my promotion to Lieutenant during that period. I wish I had kept that plr file. :(

back in high school i once stayed up 3 days straight playing videogames over vacation. friend of mine was over for one of those and we'd spend hours playing street fighter 2 on end. lots of caffeine and frequent pizza deliveries helped muchly.
