    ... that you've played an RPG game in a single session? Something like Skyrim, KOTOR, Fallout, etc. MMORPG's count too!

    Woopsie, I meant hours of gameplay in one session! I've played for 6 straight hours before getting worn out and quitting.

    Probably about 12-14 hours, with the wife a few times back before the kid came.

    These days I probably only get 2-3 at any one session.

    Though I'm working on a mod for New Vegas, that might keep me busy for a while.

    About 2 hours at the longest. Though normally it would be about 15-20 minutes.

    If I have the time available I usually average about ten to fifteen hours on a new game but I did make a couple of 24+ runs when I first started F3.

    These days after being through them multiple times it's around three to eight.

    I dunno, hours.

    It's kinda padding, though, when you're playing it on an older computer that takes a full minute to load an outdoor map :naht:

    I miss this. When I have a few bucks, I'll have the wife and kids go visit the in-laws and I'll just go at it. The last time wasn't an RPG, but PS3's exclusive Uncharted 3 back in November. Close to 10 hours that time. :)

    I put 3-4 hours because it was RPG-centric, but I did once spend approximately 50 hours playing Gradius. Slept through a day after that :P

    Do restroom and snack breaks count against this?

    Think I played a Zelda years ago with a friend for like 15 straight hours once.

    It was glorious.

    Holy crap, I need to change my vote...I actually just remembered a run I had on Wizardry II (NES) where I was attempting a speed-run for Twin Galaxies. I failed the run, but the run time was almost 6 hours (I've streamlined my strategy to knock a few hours off the time since then, but still have yet to succeed on tape).

    Not counting times I went to grab some crackers to stuff down my gullet to keep me from starvation...probably 18 or so hours playing Final Fantasy XI.

    There were also a lot of Starcraft sessions that lasted 6 hours or more and a few Master of Orion II games upwards of 8 hours.

    I haven't counted, but Fall From Heaven 2 on Civilazation 4 eats up a lot of my time.

    TOR eats a lot of my time now.
