How many hours a day do you play

Ok, after visiting the how many systems thread, it got me wondering as to exactly how many hours a day does everybody here play? I remember when I was a kid I could play hours a day. 2 things put an end to that, marriage and a jobby job! Ah well, on average I guess I probably get in half an hour a day, but it' s not every day, more like 1 hour every 2 days. How much does everybody else play?

Whether I work or not its usually several hours worth a gaming a day. The weekend definatly ups that since my friends and girlfriend are all gamers as well.

But, I need to start getting out again I been locked up more or less in my house for like 3 weeks since its hard to find customers during the winter season.

I guess I play about 0-5 hours per day, averaging maybe 2 or 3.

Interesting question. It varies by the day, obviously, and also by which games I am currently interested in. If I have a high level of interest in a game that I own, then I can log about 3-4 hours per day playing it. I rarely play more than that. Recently I played through the original Phantasy Star on the Sega Master System again, and I was logging about 6-8 hours per day everyday. Then there are some days which I don' t play games at all.

Interestingly, there are never any days where I don' t use my computer. I don' t use my computer for games, though (other than emulation).

Like it has been said already, it varies. B/c of work, I may work up to 7 days a week, or I could work 4 or 5.

When I work 7 days a week, my free time is spent at the bars, clubs, or just hanging around with friends. When I work 4 days a week, my ass is laying in bed playing some game. Lately it has been mostly san andreas, halo2, and snake eater.

I' ll put it this way:

Before responsibilities:

Max. # hours playing: 30
Average # hours playing: 6-8

After responsibilities:

Max. # hours playing: 8
Average # hours playing: 1-2

See what having repsonsibilities does to you?

It makes you more...errr...responsible!
