My friend and I just finished playing 12 straight hours of Diablo 2.

No joke, freakin 12 straight hours.

What was the longest you've played a game for and what game was it?

Probably around the same time with Diablo 2. :P I never really timed myself...I just knew I played that game for a loooong time everyday.

I used to play EverQuest for 12-16 hours a day... every day. When I wasn't asleep, or eating, I was usually EQing.

I'd have to say my longest marathon was probably on Anarchy Online, 18 hours. I got up at about 7:00 AM one day and started playing...logged off around 3:00 AM the following night/morning. I usually only play maybe 3-4 hours a day, but that day was just...different. :lol:

Six or seven hours on World of Warcraft. I've gone a similar amount of time on other games as well though.

You're praising a guy that did 12hours straight?, where in Asia people here can do 40-60 easy.

By the way, i once did a 18hours straight, but now i just do 8 hours average.

Years ago I spent ridiculous amounts of time with a friend sitting at one computer playing Heroes of Might & Magic 2. All day gaming sessions with only short breaks for eating and using the bathroom.

2 years ago I was sometimes doing 9 or so hours a night playing Oblivion. About 10pm to 7am. Then I'd have to sleep for a while, then get up and play some more.

Many years ago I think I'd pull off an occasional 12 or 13 hours on a Friday playing Diablo 2 or Starcraft.

Over summers back when I was in jr high and high school I think I pulled off a few 15-16 hour spans playing civilization or some of the old AD&D games from SSI. That was kinda rare though.

Nowadays it is rare for me to play more than 2 hours at a time.

Note: All times above have taken into account lunch/dinner/etc and those times have been deducted off the totals.

I believe the longest recorded session was about 8,5 hours in America's Army (the website tracked me).

However, for a short time I was also addicted to Lineage 2 and I might've played longer sessions there. No proof or memory of that though. You lose track of time with MMORPGs

5 hours for me playing System shock 2. How do you guys play 8+ hours? You must have an addictive personality of some kind. :D Usually after 3 hours I get tired of playing no matter how fun the game is. I would have to be in the Star Trek Holodeck to keep me occupied for as long as some of you guys play. And believe me, if I was in the Holodeck, I would have 3 of the finest looking women that my mind can conceive stripped down to their skin suits.

I played Roller Coaster Tycoon for 12 hours straight. I didn't realize I had been on so long until I went to use the bathroom, and it was nighttime.

Not too many times that I go for long periods of time playing a PC game. I used to go on 2142 for about 8-9 hours at a time, but nothing too long. However I'd go 16-20 hours of CoD4 on my 360 when I was really into it. I'm surprised it didn't melt :D

I've played Everquest 1 4 days straight once while I was getting paid to power level some people's Toons. I was getting paid 90 bucks per AA for different people, and I could make 1 AA per 1-2 hours or so.

I played BF 2142 about 3 days straight a lot of times while I was # 1 in the world on a lot of the leaderboards, mainly "Overall" with the name "WoKeN"

Oh, **** deal.

Do you still play 2142 anymore? I was thinking of popping it in and getting a bunch of old clanmates to do a couple rounds, but everybody's moved on.

I put 12 hours into Manhunt when it first came out. I don't think I could play that long again for any game nowadays.
