    lol well I have a job, a girlfriend, school, friends, life so gaming is just a thing when I do when I am either really bored at work or home alone with nothing to do.

    Well I got Splinter Cell this week, so my "normal" habits have gone out the window...

    On average, I'll play games for maybe 2 hours every 2-3 days.

    EDIT: Oh yeah, I go to LAN parties maybe once every 5-6 months and play for well over 20 hours. So I binge on gaming like that, which holds me over the rest of the time, allowing me to focus on other things like school or friends or work or whatever.

    Depends. I usually don't play games(too busy with community 'management', mapping, writing, school, family, and the rest of 'RL') kept for maybe twenty to fourty minutes a day, but when I have a new game or PTs are on, that number can increase quite drastically.

    I do about 5 hours a day average.
    The game is whatever I feel like playing, which is usually either UT2k3 Bombing Run (Best gaming adrenaline rush!), America's Army (1.6 rox!), Spinter Cell, Natural Selection, and Freelancer on the PC. And right now its .Hack//Infection on me PS2, maybe some REZ when I want to groove. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
    When I get my imported Black GBASP (****, why couldnt they just sell the black one in the US?), my gaming hours may shoot up drastically... Link to the Past is awesome!

    i play from the time i'm free from school 'till i go to bed. - unless i have some important stuff to do, like homework i feel like i have to do, or im playing RPG's with my friends.
    - so that's at least 6 hours a day - often much more, and in the holiday's i just go in a gaming frenzy:
    1. get out from the bed
    2. go to my comp, and play all day.
    3. go to bed
    4. (don't rinse) and repeat

    Usually no more than an hour or two weekdays, and anywhere from two to six hours weekends. Unless I'm at a LAN with some friends; yesterday I went to a local LAN store and spent from 11 in the morning to 6 at night playing CS and WC3 and drinking Bawls and eating Corn Nuts.

    Well, between school, frisbee golf, friends, paintball, bible studies and stuff, and a girl I'm "courting", about.... an hour a day?

    Mostly firearms half-life. I hardly ever play NS any more. I'm just in the mood for more fragging and knifing than actual game playing.

    well anyways lol enuff with my ranting, for like two months I have been playing all day cause I've been between jobs and kinda depressed
    but im finally getting disinterested with all the games out (even NS) which is a good sign cause I really wanna get my **** back into the gym since i friggin FINALLY got a job lined up and wanna go back into training full time (again)
    where i belong and off the computer, and since im moving soon to a different place I'll have zero time for computer games.... yipee lol

    Yes, you heard that right. Bible study. I'm a Christian, sue me if I find things like Melchizadek total mindfrags, and a little mindfrag now and then isn't that bad. ANyway, if you're going to insult my hobbies, at least do it in the debate forum where something productive can come of it.

    I tend to game maybe 3-5 hours on weekdays on average, and anywhere from about 5-15 hours on weekends, depending on what i'm doing and if i feel like sleeping (which doesn't happen often if i get caught up in something ^_^). However, i'm on the comp always, I just sit in IRC and chat, map, watch anime, listen to music (game/anime music = win), and etc while i'm not playing a game. I'm <b>always</b> in IRC, and if anyone wants to play something sometime, pm me, 99% of the time i'll be up for it. :D

    Hm...gaming...completely depends on the game. NS does not vary much and as such I could only play, at the MOST, maybe like 4 hours a day, unless its a LAN party. Now on the other hand...if i get my hands on an RPG...damn, watch out, a good RPG, a weekend, and a 24 pack of dr pepper...Ill be playing for 10-20 hours STRAIGHT. No breaks. Except for bathroom =P

    When I got Xenosaga I played nearly 10 hours a day. I stayed home from school for two days just so I could get in at least 12 hours on both days. I am a complete RPG addict. Now that I recently saw Star Ocean EX I've started playing Star Ocean 2 again...didn't go to school thursday or friday =P woohoo more play time.

    Honestly, I <i>still</i> only rarely play games.. I used to play at least two or three games of NS a day, but now I haven't played it in at least a week or two. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    As for other games, even that's still rare. A friend bought Freelancer yesterday (<i>I got him hooked with the demo</i>), so we were over at his place playing some multiplayer for a few hours (<i>"install + no-cd crack" for his 2nd computer</i>).

    Other than that, I do very little gaming. I'm expecting my copy of Freelancer within the next few days, so I'd assume my response will be very different by this time next week. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
