not sure but it must have been between 55 and 60 hours when TBC came out for WoW. Would have been able to go longer but I didn't get the nap I was counting on on earlier that day. I know that people are going to call bullshit on this, but I don't really care. 1st healer to 70 on tortheldrin even though all the non draenei had 10 days headstart on me (and proud of it).
I don't even know... I'd consider my entire summer a few years ago one whole gaming session. Like everyone else has said, "ahh, the joys of unemployment."
However, I just can't get excited about video games anymore. I can't play them hardcore like I used to. I just play Gears of War every once and awhile for at most 2 hours, but then I just get bored of it and try to find something else to do. MMO's don't hit me like they used to, whenever I try to start one, I just think ahead and say to myself, "What's the point? Wasting an entire day just to get a few levels so I can do it all over again in another zone with different monsters?"
I hope my love for MMO's doesn't turn into what my love for action figures became back when I was like 7 years old. I wish I could have that experience again of playing, but when I think about actually doing it, it just seems retarded and pointless, and I really have no real reason why I should be excited to do it again.

Planescape Torment (PC) (think that was what it was called!!!!) = My non MMO game which was by Bioware i believe. Must have done 20+ hour sessions on that game easy. Best RPG ever made IMO. FFS someone please make a MMORPG as well written as that. Does anyone remember that game??????????????????
Oh man yeah, Planscape. THE BEST RPG game ever imo. Some of the most memorable characters ever created in any medium, book, game, movie, whatever. Glad to see some others still remember this masterpiece. It is truely one of the best RPG's ever.
Second place after Fallout 2.
EDIT: I just remembered that maze where you had to kill your self multiple times to pass through. Great stuff.

I'm glad people enjoy themselves so much they play for so long.
BUT, what about the physical effects? Don't you get bloodshot eyes? If you get red eyes, do you explain why to people?
