I feel like such a loser. I havent picked up a controller in WEEKS!!!! I do have Silent Hill Origins and Sims 2 Castaway waiting to be played. Plus I need to finish Zombie Hunters 2.

KingKevin

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> about an hour, would like to do more but work and girlfriend take up pretty much the rest of the day!!!!!!

freespeech

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Lol.... Only 1/2 ohur a day? I get 2 hours a weeks if I'm lucky...

Aero7

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends on the game and my scedual. Right now I'm not able to play but the more intense weekends can be easily 10 hours long with a fun game.

kurokotetsu

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Wait a minute, you have Mushihime-sama at an arcade near you? WTF no fair. What arcade is it?

BitKid

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It relaly varies, some days, it's 12 hours, and the next day, I don't even touch a game. Average, about 4 hours.

zerokoolpsx

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> For me it's like max 2 hours/day.

I remember back in the day, when I used to play for like 6 hours straight! Awww, those were the days. =(

Machzy

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I game exactly 0.57 hours/day on average. Work & real life hit hard on my free time :(

gencid

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I think it varies on the days activities and what I have time for. Sometimes I can squeeze a bit of time in on my DS or PSP or get in 4+ hours in on WoW, my 360, Wii or PS2.

AndrewG009

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> About 10-12 on a weekday, 16 or more on the weekend.

everysystemgamer

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Not as much as I would like these days, about 30 minutes a day on average. During the summer I will jump it up to at least two hours a day, maybe more if I get a PS3 and MGS4 as planned.

BongoYoda

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Tough to say. Let's see.. Normal day, get up at 10 or so, go to work to slack off and sneak out somewhere between 4 and 6. Usually get in bed midnight or later... That leaves 5-6 hours for gaming since I don't really do anything else whatsoever.

5-6 hours sounds right.

weables

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> A couple of hours a day sadly, save weekends. A much better alternative than switching off my brain to the mindless drivel the television wants me to watch.

TearsandScreams

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 16 hours. I'm a tester :D. Actually I'm testing a game, that has been raved over today, and i want to open my mouth wide and scream the secrets, Its my first near published game work, so the excitement mounts. Do NOT want to play it when it comes out though!

HarmanSmith

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> If we were only talking about consoles, then it would be a couple of hours a month, but since it includes handhelds, probably 2 hours on average a day. Lately, it has been about 5 hours, but that is while watching TV with my wife. Multitasking is best when none of the tasks matter!

kingofallcosmos

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Normally 4 to 5 hours a day, put the daughter to bed and fire up a system. It's funny though, I can't play any one game for that long, I end up having 3-4 games going at a time, sometimes more than that. Finish about 1-2 games a week.

I really don't know how my wife puts up with me...

Rubix42

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2 hours every couple weeks. until Wii fit then it will become a daily 30 minutes...

VakeroRokero

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Since GTA IV, about three to seven hours a day.

Americo

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Anywhere between 2-3 hours on the weekdays, and 3-4 on the weekend..

silverfox840

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Like the first commenter said, it´s pretty uneven. For example this week I had no classes at all, and I must have spent 3 hours gaming. I was very busy with house chores, and having a life. But there are weeks that I play 5 hours every day.
If I must give you a number, I´d say the average is 1,5 hours a day.

Garcia

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-4 hours usually. I started a job about a month ago and on 3 days I work 10 hours each day, and the other 3 days I work 3 hours each day. So I work about 39 hours a week...so yeah I don't have much time to play games anymore.

MidnightScott17

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2 hours/day if I've got a new game.
0 hours/day otherwise.

H3G3M0N

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Probably average about 2 to 3 hours. Damn DS.

Cpryd001

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Normally: 30 minutes per day.
Since I've Bought Mario Kart Wii: 4 Hours per day.

Benjo

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Normally 3-6 hours per day.

Chilly Hollow

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I try and get in as much as possible and that usually comes to 2 a night and a bit more on the weekends. I feel like I read kotaku, gaf, and cheap ass gamer more then I actually game.

ecto311

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I play an MMO and am in a guild, so usually at least 3 to 4 hours a day. But occasionally more.

Cantih

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Ten hours since GTAIV came out.

*dies*

Cola82

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1 to 8 depending on the game. I spent a entire weekend on SSBB. and i hope to do the same for GTA4.

MURDERFACE

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Same as 108.

Eden.B

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-ish. A lot less than when I played WoW, that's for sure.

tk.

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Too late to matter, but I'll give it a go...Usually about 1/2 hours, when I was going through GoW/II earlier this month, about 3.5/6

Interstella5555

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Considering the stack of games I haven't finished...I definitely don't have as much time as I used to. The irony is, when you're young, you have NO money and salivate at the mouth for a new game every few months. Now that I have the money to buy (almost TOO many) games, I don't have time to finish them. Poetic, isn't it?

ThisCharmingMan

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It really varies a lot. Anywhere between 0-5 on average, sometimes a little more on the weekends if there's a new game I'm playing (like GTA). Some weeks I go without playing anything at all though, just depends on the mood and what else I have going on.

darthmole12

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> About 4 hours. 2 if i get bored and about six if i can get some good sessions online

nikeforces

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Well 0 because I haven't played.

Normally I would play for 2-3 hours then take a break. If its a game I just bought atleast 8 hours.

Majpain007

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I remember playing wow for 12 to 18 hours a day before I got a job.
I used to CS 1.6 for 20 hours at a time during the summers.

Croixtreize

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Anywhere between 2-10 hours, really.

I have a lot of free time, but that doesn't necessarily go to gaming.

Renore

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 3hrs average... Not surprising, I once hitted over 13hrs of gameplay. I'm really addicted on videogames... Oh well

ultimate920

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-3 on weekdays
4-5 on weekends

I have to share my PS3 with my bro, so that's a very important factor.

xzentrico

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> A couple hours per week. To put into perspective, I'm still working on FFXII, Assassin's Creed, Eternal Sonata, and Resistance: Fall of Man.
I get sucked into the internet and it eats up my time when I'm not at work. I'm addicted to researching things.

jacksinn

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Don't play much during the week, but probably log around 10 hours on the weekends, so on average, about 2 hours a day.

tmanflys

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I'd be lucky if I even game for a whole hour, some days. It's hard to game when other people are home, and might want to watch the downstairs TV instead of watch me play. I do enjoy my DS, but, haven't taken much time for it, either...

Shyguy

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Unemployed = Lots o' game time.

VixDiesel

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Meh, maybe averaging 2 hours a day, depending on if any real good games came out recently (aka, GTA week = 5+ hour days).

Tiger-Fever

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It depends a lot on what else I'm doing really. I can go a week without touching the 360, and then another time I can get really into it and pull in 5-6 hours. I played an insane amount of GTA4 on Thursday.

Pinhead

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> an average of about 2 hours a day, averaged in about a months time.

Swizzler121

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 5-8 Hours

Evopanda

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1-3 depending on my mood

Stroykeeper

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> This is finals week, so I've been trying to not even play any games.

On any other day I'de say around 2 hours.

Thorax

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1 to 2

Voyevoda

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I'm lucky enough to have a job that's so laid back that i can actually sneak in some time with my PSP while working, so i've been putting in an average of 2-3 hours of play time while on the clock (Crisis Core FTW!), and after work i usually go hang out at a friend's house to pass the controller around the room on CoD4 or, more recently, GTAIV. that can go on for about 3-4 hours, so i would say that on a given day i game for about 5-6 hours. damn, that's a quarter of the whole day...that's nothing, though. the last time i checked the play clock on the stat page in ssmb:melee it was over 13,000 hours. that's almost a year and a half of pure play time, accumulated over a period of about six years. damn...

necroslut

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Probably 45min-1hr a day average, but that's mostly time playing DS or PSP games on cardio bike at the gym or on the train home.
I've been criminally neglecting our new copy of MKart/Wii, and played an hour of Okami the day it came out.
I usually put in some long days of gaming around the holidays in summer and winter when I have time off and its too hot or too cold to go outside - in the case of Winter there's a lot of new games to play, and in summer there's games I neglected in spring :-)

psychicfriend

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I used to play a couple of hours/ day.
But nowdays its more like 2 hours/ week due to work, girlfriend, other intrests.
However, i have a steady eye on the branch, and i dont miss any important releases.
Plus, when giants like gta, mass effect, etc are release, then it pack ups a big amount of hours the first week. Thats for sure.

valero

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends on the time of year, really. During the school year I average about an hour a day, but most of that's concentrated in the weekend. Exams just finished for me though, so it'll probably go up during the summer to a good few hours a day, maybe 3 or even 4.

Pantsman

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends, I've been known to go 18 hours straight of gaming. I always play something at least once a day.

Callidux

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-3 hours lately, it depends. I'm playing alot of World of Warcraft right now. As soon as I get bored leveling, I'll go over to GTA IV.

robsdad

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> College days? Homework-dependant really. Let's say I have an hour of coursework. Average is about 6 or 7 hours.
Weekend if I have work one day, about the same.
A day off? About 15.

Ska-Chan

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 4-6

Especially now with the release of GTA.

AplusBminus

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Maybe 1 or 2. It really depends. Sometimes I go for marathons. My life is pretty chaotic so it's tough to estimate.

Dragon_Warrior

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I used to play 2 or 3 hours at most and depending on game releases sometimes every day for a week sometimes 2 or 3 days, always offline single plyer. A friend introduced me to CoD4 and since then I've been playing 4-6 hours a night minimum and all online multiplayer with a growing group of friends.

senote

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I play on average around 3-4 hours a day, which is probably far too much considering I'm on exam leave...

imgoingtomakeyoubald

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Spending most of my day Reading, or sitting online and checking GS Forums and Kotaku everyday, leaving me with only weekends to play.(as weekend = MORE free time)

and oh, 1 hr of wii sports everyday :D

Reetesh

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Between two and three hours a day.

I'm separated from my wife, and my oldest son has a 360 and he still enjoys gaming with dad, so I get some pretty good quality time with him even though we live apart. My three sons and I also have a Rock Band, so we spend a lot of time on weekends rocking out together.

rhacer

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I play about 8 to 10 hours a week. I probably read and write about video games more than I play them.

tec2030

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It's quite erratic, but if I had to guess an AVG., I go with an hour. It's been way more since I discovered GTA4 was better IMHO than any other R* games I played. Before that I would generally alternate between Halo 3 and CoD4 multiplayer.

RonJeremy4Pres

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Well, tbh, I turn my Wii on right after I have my morning cup of coffee and go through all my bookmarked websites. And I turn it off when I go to bed. I play games approx 4-5 hours a day on and off (not all at once). So yeh. I have no life :P Coincidentally speaking....umm...can I please get my account approved so I dont feel like Im talking to myself here? ;)

Dragoness_Muir

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> not even one and not everyday...

Automageddon!

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-4 sometimes. I have more time to do so Fri-Sun when I'm not working. DEPENDING if I'm in school or not. I won't be going back till July so I have atleast two full months to game.

Sailorcancer

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-3 unless it's a game I'm really into then 4-5.

LVP

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> At least three hours, usually more

KidoftheThird

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Usually 2 or so. But the weekends extend to much longer than that if I've got the time.

chimlee

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 0-8, depending on how busy or how insane I am.

Moonshadow101

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Hmmm on my days off that im not visiting my daughter I play prob all day, days I see my daughter not at all. and Finally on my work days prob 3-4 hrs a day.

mike1222

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> When I'm gaming between 2 and 4 hours a day.

jjpember

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 8.5 hours on a school day roughly provided I skip doing class work (Hey I'm a senior, I do that a lot right now any way...)

Weekends are... well, I just spent the night over at a buddies having a Supremem Commander LAN till 4AM and started at 10, so another four their and still racking up time as we speak.

MiliardoK

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> during the week one to two, on the weekends it can be upwards of 6-8. (Today has been mostly gaming)

DorkimusPrime

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 3 to 5 hours per day. Generally more on weekends and holidays. Not that easy to maintain those hours nowadays what with exams looming and all...:(

captain_laxpants

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> One and a half i'd say

OpiZA

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> About an hour on average, Mr. Giraffe.

Wolfers

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Well it had been 2-4 hours a day.. now that GTA is out... first day I spent 5 hours 14 minutes... today I spent 8 hours + ...

JustOneFix

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> usually on the weekdays I try to game about 1-2 hours everyday. and 3-4 more hours on the weekends

latin1

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Maybe 2 hours per day? Perhaps a little more on the weekends, but anything played before 8 pm has to be appropriate for little eyes.

Gort23

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> My boyfriend averages about 7 hours a week.
Sadface.

Zesty Mordant

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> During the school week 1-4 hours a night, about 6 on the weekends, and around 7 to 8 hours a day during the summer.

Life's good.

Elite Wombat

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I usually game 2-3 hours a day, but with classes over and GTA IV sitting here I'm sure I'll be gaming a whole lot more.

technical_ta

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 30 min - 1 hour.

I spend way more time reading and thinking about video games though. Wonder if that'll change when I finally enter the industry?

jamosthefifth

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> weekdays it's about 1 - 2. weekends, anywhere from 1 - 12

StupidDufus

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-4 on average. 5 if I have nothing else going on.

t3hye11owdart

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Well I have a job with a ridiculous shift pattern with no regards to my social life,a nd I live with my Girlfriend. If she has gone to bed for work I'll maybe play 3-5 Hours.

At the Weekend we'll probably play Guitar Hero or Viva Pinata together for 2-3 hours.

If I'm off and the Girl is at work, I'll probably play all day, after i've done the house work.

Some months I won't play a single hour.

It's anywhere between 0-24 depending on the circumstances, and how considerate i'm feeling. It doens't help that there is only one TV either.

Most of my friends are at Uni/College/Jobless/Slackers and play far too much Halo3/CoD4. Playing online with them is a blast, but then they'll invite me into custom games, where there 70+ Hour experience a week kinda annoys me, and I often get bored and quit.

Ho hum, life and video games... difficult to mix well.

Tempestora

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 24 hours - (work + commute) - (girlfriend time) - (dinner) = ~2 hours

Most recently Eternal Sonata has occupied my gaming time, but I'm hoping to get to GTA4 this weekend!

TenDeadF1ngerz

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I usally play at night around midnight to (at most) 3 am. I try to get in an hour or so a day, but somtimes that doesn't work when I have to spend the whole night working on art projects.

I like to procrastinat on those things

chaos_isnt_here

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> now it's to about 1-2. I've cut down a lot.
used to be like 5 a day

fastball611

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Like a lot of others here, it's on again, off again depending on the titles. Averaged out it comes to maybe 5-10 minutes a day.

I spend waaaay more time reading gaming "news" and theory. The potential of gaming is much more exciting to me than the 99% of the stuff that actually gets released.

amanohyo

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Well, not as much as I used to, I can say that. It used to be around 2-3 hours on weekdays and about 10 hours on weekends, but now I just have the time to reserve an hour or two every two days or so for a bit of Guitar Hero.

I don't have as many games as I used to, either. I've gotten a bit bored with gaming. Just a bit. :P I still try to follow gaming news and stuff (o hi wut am i doing ehre?)

Thyme

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> normally, about 1-2 hrs a day, if lucky, with work and all. However, ever since GTAIV, ive managed to get about 4 a day.

michaelrostenbach

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1 hour on weekdays, 6-7 hours on Friday, about 8 hours on Saturday, and 2-3 hours of Sunday.

KM91

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Thanks to work and my girlfriend, I only get about 1 or 2 1/2 hours during the week. I do game more on the weekends though.

GoldenGotGame

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I get between 1-1.5 hrs a day depending on my schedule. I compromised with the wife (she hates games) that I will workout while I game. I usually workout 45-60 mins. on my elliptical and then play for a bit as I cool down. Works out great for me! And yes, my balance is that good. GTA IV bitches!!

jf04gli

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends on the day, college kinda kills your free time.

I'd probably day from 2-5 hours, depending upon what the day is and my schedule. It also depends on if you're counting Ikariam, which you could call a game, but I pop on that for 15 minutes at a time... but on average, I'd say that whole 2-5 hours. Some days are better than others.

Xeneizes

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 25 hours a day 8 days aweek

lumpy108

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Atm none, as my xbox is packed up in my truck, but maybe an hour a day, a lot more on weekends.

rdj

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> maybe a half hour a day? It depends on the day really. I like to binge. I'll go a week without and then play Oblivion for 10 hours straight on my day off one week. When Mass Effect came out it was like 10 hours a day. It was rough.

ConstantCupcake

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I just played the original metal gear solid for 13 hours since I can't find a memory card

MBC

Schoolimangooli the doogie mag goosie!

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Hmmm, about...2-3 hours a day? Less on days with more classes, but now that college is out, im spending closer to 5-6.

willy626

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> it averages out to probably 2 hrs a day. some days i have off ill be online all the time, but then others i wont even touch a controller or perhaps ill hit the arcade during their off hours so i dont get spanked by some japanese kid at VF5 XD

sirsonik

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> on average about 2 hours a day

DarkKnight13

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> The simple answer is not enough. Why? Maybe I'll get my GH disc back from activision.

Dee4leeds

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 5 or so? Doesn't depend on the day because atm I'm an unemployed bum waiting for my Uni course to start so every day is the same; but I'd guess around 5...

Sometimes a lot more, sometimes a lot less.

Shimmergeek

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> About 1 to 2 hours per day. But since GTA IV came out... About 10 hours.

Tifosi24

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> When I get a new game it can be up to 2 hours. Otherwise maybe half an hour or so. Tough to find time with a new baby.

wahlnut1977

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It depends sometimes 1 or 2, sometimes 8 or more.

Insidious-Dan

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Usually 1-3 hours a day, but since GTA came out I've been putting in about 8 each day.

Time spent on the pc though, thats a whole different story.

crayola77

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> About 10-15 minutes a day, except lately when I've put consecutive hours into GTA IV (:O !)

Passa

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-3 hours a day, on average. I have stretched where I don't play at all though.

DesmondHume

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Monday through Friday I play between 1 - 3 hours, depending on whatever else my friends and I are doing. On the weekends it's usually between 5 - 8 hours.

TheAbsoluteJay

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Between 3-10 hours, depending on mood, social life, work and time available.

Flippy_D

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Probably and average of 2 to 3 hours a day depending on what the week is like. Typically weekends I'm able to play more than during the week, but it really just depends on the week.

Dullshimmer

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Like 2-3 hours a day during weekdays and about 4-5 hours weekends but haven't played in about a week because of exams

drake26

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> If replaying through Phoenix Wright counts, about 1 1/2 hours a day.

If not, then maybe like 1 or 2 hours a week.

Makoto

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends, some days I don't turn a console on while others I barely turn it off. Since I've gotten Gamefly and since GTA came out I've been putting in at least 6 hours a day between that and the Kart.

InfernoT

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Three hours at least. Mainly on DS, as I can watch my TV shows and game at the same time. When I exercise, I play them for 10 minutes to rest my body and then start exercising again. Also great to play while waiting for an appointment.

Chikebo

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It dependes what game and what day we are talking about, if the game is recent i would say that i play like 2-3 hours a day and i play 5+ on weekends, if the game is not new but i like it i would say .30 to 1 hours. if i have to something else i just skp the playing.

VeNoMmx

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It depends on whats going on in our house.My kids and partners needs come first but If i get the free time then its anywhere between 1 hour and 6 hours say? I dont usually watch much tv so where others watch tv thats my time to play video games.4 hours sleep a night is not unusual.
I once played a game when i was in my late teens for 26 hours straight and even then i didnt want to stop playing, but common sense took over and i went to bed.That game was Elite on the zx spectrum! Wheres the new one mr braben please?
The nearest modern day game that came close to my longest single gaming session was wolf ET at about 12 hours non stop (i used to play over 100 hours a month at one time) and oblivion on pc got played for nearly 14 hours the day i got it.

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> As a game tester I play for at least 8 hours a day monday-friday. Now if you want to know how much I play on a recreational basis, well that varies. When I wasn't a game tester at least 2 hours a day. Now that I am testing, sometimes it's hard to come home and pick up a controller/handheld for fun. Sometimes you need to, to get the stink of a terrible of your hands. If I had to put a number on it I'd say an hour a day during the week and 4-5 hours a day on the weekends.

ItotheCtotheE

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I usually get about 8 hours of play from after school to midnight.

SrgtDonut

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I don't game everyday anymore, but I'd say from 4 to 14 hours a week.
During Mass Effect i gamed 6+ hours a day for a few days.

Jazzingbass

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1-2 hrs on a weekday, with 3-4 hrs on fri,sat,sun. abut 10 yrs ago, those numbers were like quadruple..lol

zanzibarlegend

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Typically 2-3, unless I get caught up in something lke finishing off a title on Guild Wars or getting the last few unlockables.

Sparx

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 3-4 hours on average, but if I get a good new game and a day off I love just going at it for as long as I can. I luckily had 3 days off after the release of Grand Theft Auto IV, and I did nothing but eat, sleep, and play.

NeoStarr

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It varies. A lot. Some days I don't even turn on my console or boot up a PC game, some days I'm playing straight from the moment I return home from the office until very late. I'd guess I'm usually between 1-3 hours average.

Grive

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> During the week, an hour or two if I'm lucky. At the weekend I can easily fit in five or so.

Any more than that and it stops becoming a hobby, I'd tell myself to stop being a bum and get a job.

Fallible

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Many days, zero. I'll slip in an hour or three on a good day, which is probably two or three times a week.

Honestly though, "gaming" and "the internet" count as the same thing for me...it's sitting in front of an entertainment device. If I factor in just general internet usage, then the stats become sickeningly higher.

KaneRobot

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> My game time has been dramatically lowered now that I've started working. But I still get in around three to six hours if I have something fun to play. On weekends I play almost all the time if I'm not forced to do something else.

4Degrees

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Generally 1-3 hours a day, but very occasionally and I do mean freaking rarely I'll have a session of around 4-5 hours (last night with GTA for example, I just couldn't turn it off).

eskimo-bob

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I game at least an hour each day and can go as high as 3 hours. If you count mining ore in eve while watching a show... you can add another 3 hours :)

Calandrind

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Upon consulting my Wii's message board, it seems I play anywhere from an hour to 25 (?!) a day, but it's also not uncommon for me to go weeks without playing anything.

thesuperiormurray

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> About two to three hours a day. Less if I have to write a paper, but I'm done with those type of classes (finally). Lately I've been bumping it close to four hours a day. Soon I might be able to clear off my backlog of PS2/PSP JRPGs.

ShinjiKinomoto

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> During the week maybe 5 hours, all depending if there's people on I wanna play with.

Weekends on the other hand, like 12.

cdr

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I like to spend at least one day on the weekend just gaming. During the week, my schedule varies a lot; sometimes I can relax and play for a few hours, this past month I didn't touch a controller on a weekday.

Weekends are nice- I like to play while I do laundry.

Marion517

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Three to five hours a day, when I'm not working, and 1 hour if I am. i must be addicted or something ;)

Chalky

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> On a normal basis around 2-7 hours.
But now when a game like gta IV is out, it's about 12-15 hours a day.

andh

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1hr on average

LosDaddie

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Well, right now I'm kicking my gaming into overtime, thanks to GTA IV. I'm playing like 4 hours on days I have to go to work, and probably over 8 hours a day if I have a day off.

Normally though, I play about half of that, respectively. And if I ever decide to go back to college, I'll have little to no time for gaming. Maybe that's why I don't want to go back...

Tyber_Zann

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It really depends. I'd say 2 hours at least, anywhere up to 5 if I'm really into something at the time (GTA atm). A few weeks back I played No More Heroes for 8.5 hrs in a stretch to beat it.

Blind_Evil

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I have no life...so if I don't have to go anywhere...I usually average about 5-8 hours a day during the week, and probably 6-10 a day during the weekend.

A-bleeding-memory

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Maybe half an hour to an hour...
I think I spend more time reading Kotaku than gaming :P


Harteex

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1 to 2 hours a night if I'm lucky, I work alot of overtime and 6 to 10 hours on Sat and Sun if I have something great to play at the moment ...

hollowfreak

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I go weeks without playing anything.

And then, when there's a game that's worth my precious time, I play the shit out of it until it's finished.

In other words, around nine hours a day for two days out of every two months or so.

108

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1-2 hours. Lately I've been up on 3-4 hours because of GTA.

Vetterli

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Am I really the only person who despises using game as a verb? I'm a 22 year old college guy who has played video games in some capacity since he was less than 1, and I sure as shit don't take it as seriously as everyone makes it out to be these days. It's a hobby. One does not... game. One plays games.

GusherKid

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> A few hours a MONTH if I'm lucky...

Having to stare at a monitor for a career doesn't help...then I have my own CG animation projects I work on in my own time...so to give my eyes a break, i try to stay away from screens in the little time I like to call "the rest of the day"...

zany_ninja

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I'd say about 3-5 hours a day after work

haty

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> @geoffcbassett:
Yah, I should do a couple of these TUDs with polls. Forgot this time. T_T

Brian Ashcraft

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It really varies widely for me. I usually game 4-5 hours just after I get a new game until I beat it. And after that, not so much.

I have a question for all you college folks: Can you game in your dorms? I'll be a college freshmen next year and I was wondering if I could take my 360 and a TV into my dorm...

sooiee115

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Not that you don't have enough answers, but here's another for you.

Currently, I'm gaming up to three hours a day, in between searching for a new job (harumph). Normally, it's at around 1-2 hours a day, if I'm lucky.

sariah

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> During my MBA, about 6/7 hours on average, (12-15 when Suikoden 5 and FF 12 came out), nowadays, much less about 2/3 if I am lucky, 1 if I am real busy at work/with kids.

Thriceborn

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1 to 2, ever since began full time employment. In the future, may have to become more, as I will become a videogame newser/reviwer as a part-time job for a national games portal... where does the time go?

Shiryu

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It's hard to average. Lately, I've been playing almost an avg. of 3 hours per day. Sometimes, though, I don't play for days.

Anarchist_Gamer

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> btw, this could have been a cool poll

geoffcbassett

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> overall I'd say about 2 hours a day

geoffcbassett

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I probably play 2 hours a week if that most of time but in the last 24 hours, I've played GTA IV for 5 hours. :)

googleguru

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Ugh. I don't "game." I play video games maybe 2 hours a day.

GusherKid

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> When I have classes I don't game at all, but on the weekends I usually get int 6-8 hours a day.

superevilcube

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 6-ish on weekdays, on weekends its about 10 hours.

Kenny

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends if you include within development... other than that probably 2-3 hours on a day I choose to play a game.
I tend to play more casual/retro stuff the most though - far easier to dip in and out of.

Sean Noonan

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> usually 1 to 1 1/2 hours, i play games a lot less than i used to.

Takamoto

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I couldn't give that answer. It entirely depends on whether I have a brand new game that I get sucked into or I just have an alright game at my hands.

With GTA IV, I probably play 6 hours a session, sometimes 10 or 12. But I try not to have *that* many sessions, so I'd say about 7 hours a day average. Now this is the extreme. Probably only MGS4 can top that.

Normally, when I have games that I like but nothing that I *love*, I play about 3 hours a day. Some days, I don't play anything at all.

Candlejack

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I usually put in a solid 6-8 hours day. I try to spread it out between a couple of games which right now means turning off WOW and playing Counter Strike: Source or SSBB.

jepp-fransen

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 5-8 usually, and i have and xbox har

having no job and single helps to the equation too.

Dakobah

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2 hours on week days (average) and about 5 hours on weekends when I don't have to study!

henri1kk

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> My hours devoted to playing games has diminished greatly over the years. I spend one, maybe two, hours playing games a day. Sometimes I'll go a day or two without so much as touching my 360.

Life takes precedent, unfortunately.

mphz

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I work 4 10-hour shifts, so I get about 2-4 hours in on the first three of those days, then about 6-8 on my version of Friday. Then each of the three days off that I get, I log between 8 to 12 hours a day. Grand total: 36-56 hours a week.

Jesus...did I mention I also live in my parents' basement and have no social life? No? Whew!

FatalisticDread

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Around an hour, more if I have less school and work

Satis24

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> With a 6 month old daughter that will obly sleep in her swing which is in the living room, I'm lucky if I can get in 3 hours a week.

Islandkiwi

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> When I just get a game, 2-3 hours every day for about 2 weeks.

After that I'll game for an hour or two every other day.

I usually get a new game about once every 2 months.

egyptomix

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> bout 4 to five hours, I blame work.

PAULINK

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends on if I'm really into a good game or not and it does vary some days. Usually about 1-5 hours but I do go mad sometimes on the weekend.

Llost

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Depends on game of course. In low season I'd say a couple of hours a day and then I like to take all my cake when I can. I played 30 hours of Twilight Princess when that came out without switching off/eating/sleeping. That was fun. I've also racked up over 1000 hours on Pokemon silver as well though. hmmmmm I still like to think we're in the age where games must be played through in one sitting. DAMN YOU LoZ and your stupid save system!!!

bobofgold

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> On average I'd say maybe an hour or two a day, but it really depends on the day. If I've got a lot of work to do and social engagements then I'm lucky if I can squeeze 20 mins in on the DS, but if I've got absolutely nothing else to do then I can easily waste 8 hours on a game.

SisterGrim

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> I'll usually play for an hour or so before moving on to Netflix... But the occasional spree probably puts my average up toward a more embarrassing 3 or 4 hours. Unless you call those outliers! Yeah, outliers...

valuepack

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Normally about 1 to 2 hours per day if I'm in the mood for it, but thank god for the free days this week, because I played up to 12 hours of GTA IV this week. Highly addictive game.

Al Bino

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Usually 3-4. But I am a huge gta fan and my playing times, no joke, in one sitting have been 8 and 11 hours. Insane I know.

kylo4

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1-2 hours a day.

more if you count playing solitare on my phone while in the can at work.

Kawlyn

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> If you break it down into a day for each week, on average I would put in about 10 minutes a day. If that, I usually only play on tuesdays and sundays. Even then I don't play all that often.

It has currently been about 2 hours a night since gta was released, but if and or when I get bored with it then it will change

Jamaces

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> It depends. Recently with GTA it's been something like 3 or 4 hours a day, but usually it's only 1 or 2, I'd say.

Rotek

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> lets see...

its 7AM and i've already played 2.5 hours of GTA.

this is irregular, only because its a new game and its flippin awesome

normal is probably about 2-3 hours daily

today will be more like 5-7

eddienoteddy

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> something like 2-4 hours

tei15

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Ranges from nothing to... up to 8hrs. I never really know.

Bokusatsu_Tenshi

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> One or two on work nights, and much longer than that on weekends (including MMORPGs).

WillyFourEyes

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1.5 hours most work days, 3 on some when i got no chores and get outta work early.

4-6 a day on weekends.

Rendo

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 4 if I'm honest, although if the right game comes out and I'm off 48 hour binges are not unheard off.

Flawless101

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> @MasterDex: Damn dude... I did 13 hours for GTA4... and thats my highest. 70 hours is just insane.

iamcool388

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Since I'm not held down with a job right now I play on average 5 hours a day but that can change to maybe just 1 hour depending on my mood. Longest straight session was 70-something hours playing FFXII when I first got it. I say straight but I paused for the neccesities like food and toilet but that was it.

MasterDex

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Too many.

Mustakrakish

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2 hours a day on average nowdays I think.

Juha Kangas

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Lately, no hours a day. With exams coming up, I've held back on the big releases, because I know I'll get lost in them.

On the other hand, when I get a new game, roughly three hours.

Pyru

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 1-2 I could do more but I get bored after a while.

ScOtTy

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> way more then I should. I play anywhere from 3-6 hours a day depending on how busy I am. I get in a minimum of an hour and a half with my DS or PSP during the as I commute by bus to school. Once I am home I will generally play whatever I am currently playing for 2-4 hours depending on how busy I am with school.

weekends are fairly game heavy as I generally get in at least 3 hours but more often then not I get 5+ hours of game time.

ErinIsADrunk

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Right now? It's like 9 ish. normally 2 or 3.

Cchrist

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 2-3 hours I think. I try to have a game I'm playing at all times, and if I run out of time during the day I cut in to sleep hours to get some gaming time.

After GTA IV I'm averaging something like 10 hours a day though. ^_^

Fury-genesis

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Hen I have friends over in the weekends we easily game for the whole day 2pm-4am, so easily 12 hours of solid gaming with toilet breaks etc.
During the working week however, only can squeeze in about an hour a night because of busy busy work


sander_dutch

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Couple hours, I spend most of my time on the interwebs.

Mara

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> WoW, about 8-10 a day, then another 4-6 on other games. My work schedule is very flexible.

Xerxes 8933A

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> Sporadic marathons.

Sometimes, I may not touch my console for weeks then on a free friday to saturday, I go on a gaming binge. Chicken, beer, baggie, send off the fiancee and I am in my zone for about a day's worth of time.

Fyren

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 15 hours a day for the past 2 days its been nice, but most of the time a an hour or 2 a day if im lucky

Fire Storm

]]> <![CDATA[How Many Hours Do You Game Each Day?]]> 10 hours a week maximum, so probably not more than 1 hour per
