How many hours a day ??

[Rush]

I know there a few serious gamers within our midst but how much per day do you game.. as much as this guy ???​

World of Warcraft​

would make a good thread me thinks

Gaming, like many other things folks enjoy, can be addictive - personally I have avoided getting into gaming for fearing I would like it so much that I would end up wasting hours of my life when I could be doing better things.

I've added 'Never' to the options so I can take part

you sound like a newly married man

 

[Adywebb]

I am of course - but I decided not to get involved in gaming a long time before that

With me, probably a couple of hours a day, sometimes maybe four hours and sometimes I'll go a few days without playing any games at all.

As for wasting time on playing games, when we 'could be doing something better' I suppose it depends on one's own interpretation of 'better'.

I enjoy gaming and this is a short life so enjoyment is good, in my book. Yes, pure hedonism I suppose, but what the hell, you gotta just take care of yourself sometimes

 

[Adywebb]

Yep, 'doing something better' is from a personal perspective - hence the reason I used the word personally - rather than it being judgemental........and some folks would no doubt think that some of the things I do instead are wasteful

I spend way too much time playing games, but i love it!

On a week night it can be up to 4 or 5 hours and weekends, well god knows, more that 5 hours sometimes.

Although i do have to keep the three servers going so that stops me playing quite as much.

When I knew what women could do for me, gaming/sport went out the window

And so does your wealth when you get divorced

It depends, I can go months and not play a game at all - but when a new one comes out I could play a couple of hours per day

Playing Fallout 3 at the moment, and it's good fun!

Tell me about it

 

[Waynos_Face]

Play maybe an hour a day, but then i won't play at all for a month but on a really special day i'll play COD4 on the PS3 for 8 hours. After i have done my chores that is.

I didn't look at the link, no need, I know what it's like ...



Ian, this would make a good front-page poll, about time that AV one was replaced.




oh, I voted conservatively.

There was a time when I would play EVE 20hours plus a day..... student life (except for when I would go out drinking or pullin).
Now my time is valuable and thus gaming takes a back seat.... usually about 1-3 hours a day onaverage I reckon.

Hardly ever in summer but as the weather gets worse I start to play more. Do it in lumps will play for a few hours a day then will only play the odd hour at a time.
You should add an option for winter/summer or fair/wet weather player.

Does playing Theme Hospital count?

No !! It is mandatory for all adult pc users to play this at least 24 hours a day. The government monitors all activity for this game and uses the results to improve the NHS.
