What game have you spent the most hours playing?

Smackdown: Here comes the Pain.

Burned the disc out. Had to be 5 hours a day for a year.
 
I sunk in over 2k hours on Fallout 4, PS4 and PC. Most of it was building shit, it was so addictive, especially with the PC mods/better options for placing things.

I lost my life in Star Wars Galaxies, Halo CE, COD World at War, and Diablo 1 and 2 many moons ago, but I have no idea of the total hours, must be in the thousands.

Top 5 on Steam.

Civ 5 is my top current game, 500 hours, and Star Trek online, the same.

Witcher 3 181
Dark Darks 2 SOTFS 158
Dark Souls 3 138
Dark Souls Remastered 125

Witcher 3 and Dark Souls 2 are from single playthroughs. I reloaded a lot of older W3 saves to get different story results, took me back to choose your own adventure books as a kid. DS2, looks like I died a lot lol, but it's a far longer game than other Soulsborne titles, so much content! I changed my build a lot too, and farmed like crazy.

DS3 and 1 are two full playthroughs, lot's of deaths there too.

In Witcher 3 did you do both expansions? I went through maybe 65% of the main game twice, only to have my saves deleted. I recently beat the main game at like 80 hours (didn't do many sidequests this time around, for obvious reasons) and just finished Blood and Stone at around 85 hours.

If you did the expansions, how long did it take you to do Blood and Wine? By the intro and the colored aesthetic I'm currently seeing riding Roach to that massive castle in, I think I might stick around this land awhile......
 
I have two old Football Manager games at around 1,100 hours (Basically Out of the Park Baseball but for non-Americans)

7 Days to Die at 988 hours now. I'm legit addicted to that shit, and there's a huge new content drop coming on Monday so I'm sure 7 Days will be #1 soon

I need to fix my PC :( apparently 7 days to die stuttered out with updates on PS4. I've probably jumped 500 hours into 7 Days.

Dumped a fuck ton into all the Bethesda games. I like games I can smoke five bowls and get lost in.
 
Not really in order.

MW 30ish days online plus a lot of fucking around in the campaign with cheats and getting the plat for it.

MW2 25ish days, platinum plus messing around in campaign.

For mw 1&2 that doesn't include numerous hours playing at friends houses as well.

Fallout 3, probably 5-6 playthroughs with 50-200 hours each.

Fallout NV 5-6 playthroughs 50-200 hours each.

Skyrim 4-5 playthroughs 50-200+ hours each.

Fable probably 20+ playthroughs not sure how long they took. 2-3 Of them probably had a lot of time on them compared to others.

I've beaten mario 64 quite a few times.

Mario cart, MX vs ATV unleashed and Goldeneye I have a lot of time playing against friends and my brother.

Tecmo superbowl I played all the time with my dad and brother.
 
Could be any of over a dozen contenders.

If you add in time spent messing about with scenario editors and the like it further complicates matters.

If someone put a gun to my head I guess I'd pick Skyrim. Playing that game was like stepping into a time warp back in the day. I'd turn it on, and next thing I knew the weekend was over.

4k hours on rust

Other games didn't keep track, but if I had to guess.

20k hours on starcraft
10k on diablo 2
10k on sc2
I think you meant hundreds, not thousands.

20 000 hours is equal to 833 days. 24 hours a day. That makes no sense.

You'd literally have to have no life besides gaming and sleeping for years to even reach 20k hours.
 
Xcom.... love it still

suck it Bradford

For 181 hours, I'm guessing he had to have played the expansions, just from a dry run perspective. That would be about right, for the main game plus the expansions.

Personally, I'm at 140-ish hours, and have only scratched the surface with B&W, which seems like a whole new game. I put it aside due to burnout and other games, but I really have to get into that. I started it up, and was all "Oh' my God, this is amazing! A whole new game!", and then "RDR2" took my attention away, and then "Dead Cells", and then "Kingdom Come Deliverance" and then, and then...

I really have to get back to that. That B&W expansion seemed special. Only played a few hours of it, though.

Yeah I heard on consoles 7 Days is still in like Alpha 15 stage. On PC they just released A18

tbh A16, A17 and A18 have all been awesome. Plus in PC you got mods and they're really worthwhile. tbh 7 Days is best with a major content mod like War of the Walkers or Darkness Falls. There's even a Borderlands style conversion called BorderlandZ which I haven't tried yet

I played sc1 for 10 years. 20k hours is probably about right. Sc2 / Diablo 2 about 5 years each.

Ive played rust just over a year and have 4k hours. In 5 years If I keep playing, Ill have over 10k hours.

Of course thats not all in game but
 
Sadly... it was "Spongebob Squarepants". My kid got hooked on it and of course he always wanted Dad there to help. We must have played that game 1000 times. But hey, good times, right? I look back on it fondly. :p
 
Probably NBA Jam for SNES. It used to be my go-to game when I needed to relax.

Didn't take any effort to destroy the computer opponent. But it was still fun. I used to give myself challenges, like beating them by 100 points, or holding them scoreless for an entire quarter, etc.
 
Just checked:
- 3500 hours of Team Fortress 2
- 1600 of Binding of Isaac
- 1000 of Binding of Isaac: Rebirth (+ Afterbirth DLC)

Since I played more TFC and TF than TF2 I'm kinda worried now lol
 
Quake 1 (Quakeworld mod specifically)
Diablo 2
Fifa series
Fortnite

too many hours to count :P
 
its got to be a call of duty for me. either mw2 or bo1/2. cant remember which one it was but i was up to +27 days gamiing time. so that is atleast 648 hours.
 
SNES MarioKart.

3 wasted years wasted at university, played the game almost everyday, sometimes for the whole day.
 
Between story and online 665 hours on GTA V

Next highest is Fallout 4 at 412 hours
 
Probably Skyrim. Just so easy to just mess around and explore or "roleplay" and spend hours without even finishing one quest.

I did dump an unholy amount of time into Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds when I was younger though so it wouldn't surprise me if it actually ended up being my most played game. No way to track that tho
I've logged 250 hours on Skyrim

Yeah, played them both, loved them to death. Blood and Wine is like a full game on its own. The setting is Medieval fantasy porn; beautiful, dark, captivating, just wondrous stuff all around.

Again, a lot of my 181 hours was my reloading saves to get different outcomes. I remember having go back almost two hours just to reverse banging Triss, so I wouldn't lose out on Yennefer. That was probably the only thing I looked up, just to see who I could bang without consequence.

It was so worth it though, because we really get to see how deep Geralt and Yennefer's connection is.
That whole thing with the djinn spell, which tied Geralt and Yennefer together. They weren't sure if once the spell was broken, that they would feel the same, but of course they did, and then we get this beautiful scene


Everytime I hear this song (below) I instantly well up. My dad passed away from Alzheimer's last year. I took care of him mostly, and he would sit with with me sometimes while I played games. He especially loved this song, like I do.

I don't think any game moved me like this one did. I genuinely got chills of fear from Gaunter O'Dimm, and was moved to tears through Geralt and Yennefer's love story. What a masterpiece


How many of you read the books, or looked deeper into the lore? I love how Geralt and Yen met.
