Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

Halo 3, FFR/SM and Ocarina of Time. I've beaten that game so many times I can't even count. I've gotten 100% on it a few times, and I started speedrunning it but never stuck with it.

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

Out of all the games that kept me from having a normal social life, first place goes to Combat Arms. My character creation date says August 10, 2008, and up until just a few months ago I played every day. In November 2008 I started a clan that eventually rose to be level 6 (the highest level) and at its peak had 65 members and was ranked 48th on the server out of tens of thousands of clans. Certainly not the best out there but when I made that clan, I only expected it to be a group of five or six friends who plays for fun on the weekends, so my expectations were greatly exceeded. As of this moment I'm upholding a 1.36 K/D with a career kill count of 157,120.

A close 2nd place goes to RuneScape, which I played actively from December 2004 to February 2009. It was the first MMO I played, and it was the first time I ever had "online friends." I started writing fanfictions on the RS forums in 2006 and some of them became fairly popular. I remember that random people I didn't even know would send me messages in-game, asking when the next chapter of my story would come out. Sometimes it got so intrusive that I couldn't train and level up! I made several friends on that game, a few of which I'm still in touch with today. I never got very high-leveled on that game, though, by the time I got into the 80s I found it too much of a bother to level up. Most of my friends quit in 2008, I finally let my membership expire in February 2009 when Combat Arms started to take up more and more of my life. Every once in a while I still log in but the game's not even the same anymore, it's overrun with robots, or people who play only to win instead of having fun. That makes me kind of sad.

A distant third place goes to Grand Fantasia, which I started playing in the beta phase in November 2009, and quit playing actively about a year later. It was hard for me to find time to play this game when I was running a highly active clan in Combat Arms, but I made several friends here and made it to a decently high level. I'd still like to get back into this game, since I'm not playing RS or CA actively anymore.

Oh, and I have 120 hours on Pokemon Emerald and I had at least 135 on Crystal before the battery died. Neither of these games come even remotely close to the time I've spent on CA and RS. Just since Nexon put Combat Arms on Steam, which was about 6 months ago, I have 237 hours on it across all of my accounts, and that's since I've become inactive. A ballpark figure for me would be that I've spent at least 4000 hours each on Combat Arms and RuneScape. By comparison of how much of a distant 3rd Grand Fantasia is for me, I would guess I've put about 400 hours in at the very most. For FFR/SM I think I have a combined total of about 600 hours but I didn't list it in my top 3 because it didn't have as much of an impact on my life as Grand Fantasia did.

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

super mario world. i don't know how many hours i've spent playing it, but i've been playing it since before i was 5 so its probably a lot.

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

In order: Skyrim, FFR, Runescape, War of Legends.

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

I spent countless hours on starcraft from the year 2000 until starcraft 2 came out (which was a let down to me). FFR probably comes in second place, even though I've only played it since May 2009.

Oh, if you combine all my time playing the pokemon games, it probably comes close to my starcraft time.

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

Stepmania/ffr - 26k+ hours
Super metroid - around 1.5k hours

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

50K hours ?

How ?... I mean...

50,000 hours = 2083 days = 5,8 years.

EDIT : All the games combined makes 9,1 years...

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

Pokemon (about 2000 hours), Sonic (about 1000 hours), Final Fantasy (about 600 hours) & Elder Scrolls (about 300 hours).

Re: What game has taken up the most of your time?

I'm calling bullshit on these, unless you play a _LOT_ of SM. I've played maybe 800 hours of FFR and my GT dwarfs yours.

As for D2, I obviously have no idea how much you actually play it, but 50k hours lol I'm pretty sure you just picked a number in the general galaxy of accuracy, as that would be almost 6 years straight of playing without sleep and it's only a 12 year old game.
