You must have felt like ripping all the hair off your head :-D
I faced a similar situation when I played GTA: VC for around 4 hrs and then quit without saving.

Longest? Hmm... 7and1/2 hours with ol' Maxey(Max Payne Kung-Fu Edition 3) on a Sunday. I got a wrist ache later that day though.
It's not a good thing though, I've read about a kid in Skoar! who played Daikatana for 12 consecutive hours(No breaks) and died of Stroke 8 hours later!

About 2 years back, CoD2 rifle only tournament on our UK clan server, I think I was on it for probably some 15 hours straight. The tournament started around 2pm my time IIRC and ended at 11 in the night. I was up 5 hours before the actual tournament practising and all and even after it ended, we were like 2 hours on it fooling around with chatting and playing coz some of us got drunk then and also there was this all female clan named 78thID or something on the server and we had all sorts of (non)sense talk going on.

That was quite a day.

WTH I think u have not visited ajman recently...man it is now one of the fastest developing emirate in U.A.E... But the negative aspect of this development is that we are being forced to pay heavy rent on our shops:mad:( we are now paying almost double the rent we had with previous year:x:x)....But thank god our business is growing up just fine...:smile:

BTW where are u in india ...I am from Kerela(kannur dist)

I guess I'm the only guy here to have played for 24 hours straight(with arnd 15 minute breaks inbetween), done it more than once, too. The first time was when I was in class 7 or 8, my mom was in a hospital to undergo a critical surgery so everyone at home was pretty worried, I came from the hospital at around 9 AM, started playing Final Fantasy IV to take my mind off the morose mood, played straight to the next morning 11 AM and went to visit her after the surgery at 12 PM.

Then it became a habit when I was in my MMORPG addiction... somewhere in first year of college, playing MapleStory from friday night to saturday night and sleeping through the sunday. Got dozens of friends through that, though :)

Other than that... my Ragnarok and Maplestory bots have run for 3 days continuously :D

How many of you have specs here?
I haven't got any (yet).
I don't like gaming for long hours continuously. I just play with many breaks in between.

Lolz, I used to be one, now ragnarok is boring and maple's security is too high to hack and bot, and my friends dropped maple too. So I was addicted for 1 year in ragnarok(school class 12) and 1 in maple(coll 1st year), but I've been completely free for 2 years now :)


... unless you consider a "brief" encounter with CS in 3rd sem when all my classmates played it... now they play DotA but I never cared for it... its too easy to make a maphack for it(a ten minute job), and an easy game to hack becomes boring soon.

Longest gaming streak:

Its my daily routine to spend 8-12 hours playing Urban Terror. Once I played for 18 hours....I started at 10am in the morning, and then slept at 4am next day. :D That included no break and I had my lunch and dinner spectating other people on my computer table. :D

Eyes = 6/6. 8) :lol:
