Hey before i used to game for around 4-5 hours straight maybe more until i decided to research the recommened time and it said 1 hour with a 15 min break each hour which shocked me so now i play for an hour and have a 15 to 20 min break my question is that is it still okay to game for 4-5 hours or more a day but as long as i have a break every hour as stated above ? Or should i reduce the amount of time i play for?
 
What 1 hour and then have a break, when I was on ever crack I played till I got booted from the group for falling asleep at the kb... was not uncommon to do 6 am to 2 or 3 am if I did not have to work

Only breaks were toilet breaks ...

( I have been clean for 4 years )
 
If work i do an hour when i can be botherd, If im not at work, 8am-3am with dinner and tea inbetween and afew 2L bottles of coke. Fun times

U cant survive on 5 hours sleep though.. I aint done this for about 2 months now i doubt i will for a long time unless they release an amazing new game
 
I suppose if gaming is what you do it's not that bad. I've often worked* 5am-10pm 5 days a week (plus 18 hour weekends) for weeks on end.

*by worked i mean job + paid hobbies
 
Hard to say, I'd say I game for about 10-15 hours a week at a guess? But I rarely watch TV, maybe 1-2 hours a month. It's amazing the amount of people at work etc who say "I don't have time to play games like you do" but I know full well that they spends 49 out of 50 evenings watching 5 hours of TV

Short answer: I play games when other people watch TV, there is no time spent over what they do.

argh no

when i was racking up my 550 days play time on runescape i could easily get up at 8am on a summer holiday, play till 4-5am crash out while on a boss trip wake up at a silly time and start again

so so so so so glad those days are over
 
When I was playing BF2 it was easily 4-5 hours a day, but now I'm bored of gaming. I bought BF3 when it first come out and since today I've only played it about half an hour!
 
This is like an AA meeting...

Got to say I used to do the all day/night stints, but now I try to keep it to evenings, and because I only game with friends when they go to bed I just don't play at all. Can't stand playing MC or BF3 without mates on Teamspeak.
