So I found a review on Ys VI : The ark of Napisthim turn out the guys was playing for 18,7 hours on the same day of the game release, meaning he probably play it or at least turn it on non stop with minimum break, which is kinda crazy for me (although he did mention his need to sleep at the end of his review).

My own personal record would be around 14 hours, how about you guys? What are your records and how long is the ideal time to play a game in a day?

who need rest, rest is for the weak

I've done a couple of 24-hour charity gaming marathons. The last one I did was back in Februrary. I stopped at about 27 hours because my fiancée wanted to go out for the afternoon. The year before I did over 34 hours because I had nothing else to do that day :)

Me and my fellow Rock Star Gamers have big plans for the next marathon though. If the logistics work out it'll be epic.

30ish hours playing (probably) Red Alert 2 together with my brother. Only stops was going to the toilet, and going downstairs to grab more drinks, and grabbing drinks/food in general.

Edit: this is far from the ideal time to play in a day, it is not even a day anymore technically. :P

Edit2: What are your records and how long is the idea time to play a game in a day? And then the poll follows with I need to rest after that is not quite the same.

yeah it was suppose to be ideal instead of idea and its just a supplementary of the original topic (record time)

Not quite sure on how many hours I was "actually" on the pc, considering I had a part-time job. But I remember that I was awake for 2.5 days in with non sleep in the year 2000 while playing ultima online!

When I was a kid, probably around 10 or 11, I was playing Resident Evil 2 on my PSX, the thing is I didn't have a memory card so I couldn't save my progress, I started playing around 13:00 PM and I kept playing until 5 or 6 in the morning from the day after. I think at one moment I passed out because I woke up on the floor with the controller next to me and the game wasn't even paused, also I don't remember when I was starting to get sleepy.

I once played TES: Skyrim for 73.5 hours straight. This was back in 2012. The only time I got up was to got to the toilet, grab a drink or have a smoke. I wish I had saved the Raptr after-game summary for that session. It was brutal.

My record is well over 24 hours, but that was cause I was worried about a family emergency and couldn't sleep and gaming kept me from dwelling too much onit.

13-15 in Lineage 2 ... i think i had a couple over 15h ones , but i guess going to the store for food counts as a break , so 13-15 is the record i guess :P

Before, a few years ago I could play non-stop, I would keep going until the game crashed or something went wrong. However, in the past three or so years, I get incredibly sick when I sit and stare at a computer screen for too long, and actually playing a game makes it worse. So anymore, the max I can manage before I vomit would be 3-5 hours, if I'm lucky.
