foogledricks Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Not all games record hours played, but right now I've logged 66 hours on Final Fantasy Tactics, and that is my highest number. KOTOR was 42 hours for me. I'm sure I must have played the old Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior games a lot, but I don't know exactly how long. I beat Super Metroid in 3:45 : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I couldn't even begin to estimate the amount of time spent on various flavors of Civilization! I'm voting the max as a ballpark. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I also voted for the max. So much time spent playing Goldeneye & Halo! Not to mention SOCOM... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Easily more than 200 hours clocked with Championship Manager. Over 100 hours on FFT (PSX version). Easily over 100 hours on Civ as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I had over sixty hours logged into Final Fantasy 7 before a bad power supply took my hard drive on a trip to kaputzville. The second time through I logged over 90. My last time through FF Tactics was somewhere around 60 hours as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bryan Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I've logged well over 100 hrs in College Football's National Championship (Genesis) and at least 50 hrs in Links 2004. Two all-time favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I played Everquest for almost 4 years about 5 days a week for 4-6 hrs a night and I was a lightweight. I easily topped the 200 hr mark after year 1. I may be over 1000 for that game alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Tecmo Super Bowl for the NES. Hands down. I've spent more time on that game than probably any other games on the NES combined. That would continue through any platform to this very day. I still play TSB at least a few hours each and every month. Glen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPieter Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Only game I know for sure is FFVII with 100+ hours. In the same I would think I could include GoldenEye, Mario Kart 64 and NBA 2K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reeldeal Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Wow. Final Fantasy VII took me just over 70hrs. i rounded up to 80... I think that was the most i've put into a single game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyN Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I would have to say I played Starcraft the most. It came out around a time i had no job, and no school so i played all day for months. Recently Mech Assault, Wolfenstein and Rainbow Six have got a lot of my gaming time capt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I've easily put close to 300 hours into Counter-Strike. I started in Beta 0.5 and back then we used to play it for about six hours a day at university. And my marks actually stayed good . I was a huge, huge CS monster back in the day before all the cheaters got their claws in it. And I still suck too . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chronic Acid Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I figure I've played RS 3 200+ hours offline and online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 200+ hours easily on Morrowind and its expansions. Same for Baldurs Gate II on the PC. Not too mention well over 500+ on Dark Age of Camelot (played the game for almost a year and half). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyjaw Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I spent 8 hours playing Star Wars on a single quarter in an arcade when I was about 15, does that count for anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DataScion Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Between the huge number of hours I've given the old Microrose strategy games (Master of Orion, Master of Magic), the Civilization series, and Starcraft/Warcraft any one strategy game has easily eaten 200+ hours. That ignores the hours I have spent on RPGs and DAoC. <sigh> The life of a geek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyjaw Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Now that I think of it, my friend and I played Ultima IV (or was it V) for countless hours, frequently staying up all night, on his Commodore 64. I really don't know how many, probably 75-100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittycatgirl2k Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Solomon's Key. NES. We.... (meaning my mother and I) played this game for years. 1988 - 1999. For hours... upon hours. We managed to get it down to a science of about a six/seven hour play through... but the amount of things that could be found was astounding. Up until even the last few times we played we were STILL finding new things, sphinxes, "demon" coins, weird old men heads.... lol all kinds of strange and wonderful things. It was a neverending treasure hunt and the game has SO many different endings (and YES I have seen the one where you actually rescue the fairy princess! or fairy queen in the heart shaped box stage).... what a wonderful puzzle game. The hours we spent total into the hundreds. More than anyone could possibly count I'd imagine. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chatakinns Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Several games have kept me occupied for hours on end at work. Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire is one I played for about 3 months. 5 nights a week, 6-7 hours a night. Harvest Moon Friends of Mineral Town is another. ( not 3 months on this one yet though ) I know Cal & I have had some intense weekenders of Dynasty Warriors since we bought DW 2. Then, DW 3 came out, and OMG .... don't forget DW 3 Extreme Legends and goodness .... DW 4 has to be in there too !!! Gaming goodness ! :tu: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyVolpe Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 It took me 80 hours to defeat Final Fantasy X. My characters were leveled up so high that by the time I met Seymour Guado in his final form, I killed him in two moves. I'm currently playing Diablo II: Lord of Destruction as all seven characters and have about 60 hours in so far (my paladin is in act 3, the others are in act 1). Therefore my FFX record will be smashed this year. Of course, I'm not taking into consideration games like Halo, Worms Armageddon, Sega Tennis 2K2, Tekken Tag Tournament, Soul Calibur, and SoulCalibur II which involved me and several others in 6 to 12 hour marathon sessions monthly. Total hours for Worms Armageddon would be around 150, Halo, Tennis, TTT, and SC2 around 200+, and SC close to 300+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Counterstrike on PC, I can't even begin to add up the time spent here. I usually come in about 15 or more hours over the mark on any RPG just because I try finding absolutely everything. I bet I logged over a 100 hours playing Advanced Dungeons and Dragons on my intellivision, with utopia and astrosmash coming in close behind. Oh yea, SOCOM, Wolfenstein, Mech Assault.. damn, I have no life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrillho Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Man thats a tough question, I rarely play any RPG so those long games I can't count. It would probably have to be Soul Calibur, or Goldeneye. I can't begin to tell you the # of weekends I would spend at Merlots playing video games the whole weekend. I would usually show up Friday night or Saturday morning and stay till about 11-midnight Sunday. The only breaks usually only involved ordering a pizza or partake in a guiness!!!!. I can't tell you the number of times we played Soul Calibur until it reached 199 on the counter and stopped counting. So I would probably have to give it to that game. The longest one game session though involved Zelda 2 the adventures of Link back on the NES. After a long morning of deep sea fishing, I got home and started playing around 5 pm saturday afternoon, I didn't stop til around 3 am Monday morning, I beat the entire game in one sitting, I played right through a back yard family bar b que my parents were throwing, all my aunts and uncles didn't even know i was home the whole time.

I can literally play it for hours on end and barely notice the time going by. I measure time by the number of pee and munchies breaks I take. :green: I have to obstain from voting as I have absolutlely no clue how many hours I've burned through. But they were all throughly enjoyed! :green: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Easily over 200 for Halo. My pals and I still play the game once in a while, but we were on a twice-a-week pace for over a year. Usually for at least four hours, sometimes more. At one point I had 2 groups of friends with different schedules, and we all loved the game, so I was playing it around 4 nights a week in multiplayer. Morrowind I logged about 80 hours on. I just got the GOTY Edition for Xbox, and expect to be sucked in again. Final Fantasy VIII was about 60 hours, maybe more. If memory serves, I maxed out my levels trying to beat the 2 weapons, and eventually gave up trying. Then I went on with the game and just beat the shit out all the bosses and everything, it was fun. That would continue through any platform to this very day. I still play TSB at least a few hours each and every month. I can relate to this - just replace Tecmo Superbowl with RBI Baseball. I still play that with my brother once in a while, and just this past weekend a friend was talking turkey about how great he was at it. We'd never played it against each other before. I won the first game in 9 innings, but got back in the groove in game two. I won by the Slaughter Rule in 3 innings. I'll make sure to remind him of this for a while. There's a lot of old NES and SNES games I spent a lot of time on, but don't know exactly how much. Mega Man 3, Maniac Mansion, Bionic Commando, Street Fighter 2, Dragon Warrior...and of course River City Ransom. Who wouldn't play a game where the smiles from cute waitresses are free?

Mark E Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 eventually gave up trying. What, you played 60 hours, maxed levels, and couldn't beat the weapons? Really? Wow, I finished the game in 64 and demolished the two weapons. Mind you, I spent a lot of that time learning Lionheart for Squall, which is the only attack you need once you get it .
