Thread: 24/7 gaming

Can you handle 24/7 gaming?

I have played a game for 24 hours straight before. It was Knights of the Old Republic. There's no way I could do that for more than a day though. Your legs get weak and your head gets a little dizzy. Plus you have to do other things in life besides game.

That's one of the best Star Wars game right? I haven't personally played it but some of my friends say that the game will definitely make you forget about everything, including time.

Once, I did it 3 days with no rest. That was when I was playing Dragon Age Origins.

I used to do that in the past, i mean i used to play for several consecutive hours especially adventure games like GTA or Tomb Raider, but now i have no game that makes me sit for very long hours.

I've never played a game for 24/7. I have stayed up for a week straight, playing a game was part of that week but not the entire time because I had classes to attend & homework to finish. But instead of sleeping, I played games. I only had a PS1 at the time, in fact I think it was right about the time that the PS2 came out.

The longest time I remembered playing was at least 8 hours. That's the whole afternoon until evening.
I mostly do that after the exams.

i couldn't manage 11 hours on a game that didn't have very good graphics which i knew would make me feel sick.
in the end i felt like vomiting and i was tired while i listened to my brothers friends on skype chatting.

I don't think I've ever played 24 consecutive hours in a game. I have stayed up a couple days playing but there were breaks to take care of errands, etc in between sessions. I know I've playing maybe 12-14 hours straight before when I was really into World of Warcraft and raiding there.

You're right ! All what i want to do after exams is playing and chilling out, that's why when i was a kid i was usually playing games all day long after being done with all the exams.
