Dutch gamers break record for non-stop gaming

[bmaster154]

It isn't quite that special. Given the proper calm and comfort of my room with about any of my consoles or handheld, I could probably easily hit the 15 hours straight, and that is, with no toilet break. My body has adapted itself to extremely long periods of gaming, so it's not that special to me. However, if I was given the chance, maybe I'd try beating that record. Maybe not for the record itself, but the fun.

A power nap for 40 minutes every 5 hours and then use the ten to get back up.
I think I could do this if I had a friend with me.

I've been on a few pretty serious gaming sessions myself. On a dare I went all they way through FF7 in one run in an attempt to beat the world record. As I recall I wasn't far off. Don't think I've ever hit the 50 hour mark though.

They must be very easily entertained, I can't play red dead redemption for an hour without getting bored. I've definitely played for more than 10 hours straight several, several times. When I got twilight princess I played it for like 18 hours.

 

[jlsyber]

Wow. The most I've played is 24 hours.

 

[ThommyDude]

Thats just how awesome we Dutch people are!

(i know i have a Swedish flag but i only moved here a couple of years ago)

I'm pretty sure there's some Korean out there, who played himself to death for something like 70+ hours straight, but I'm not sure.

Yeah, I did hear that a Korean person did die after playing for to long, but I'm not sure how long he played for.

im sure they is million plus WoW losers who do that every week.

This may be true.

For hour of gameplay you do, a brain cell dies.

That's nothing, you probably make many synaptic connections during meaningful gameplay, memorising strategies and learning gaming trivia.

True that.

The reason toilets never fill up, is because gravity does the draining. :0

The most on a console I have ever done was a 10 hour CoD montage.

The DS I have played 3 battery cycles in one sitting. (It discharged, and I plugged it up, after it charged when I was playing on it, I played until it went dead again.

That's not bad, considering the average human brain contains another 100 billion others.

Clearly you've never been to Coventry. A ten minute walk around our city centre would totally destroy your faith in that statement.

Oh damn, what about playing WoW all day, and drinking alcohol all evening, and sometimes smoking weeds in the evening too?

I must have 0 brain cells.

 

[Bladexdsl]

[Schizoanalysis]

The only person I knew who played WoW all day was impotent...



True story.

 

[Maz7006]

i can't see myself sitting at a video game for more than 2 hours straight, let alone anything else that is

 

[gokujr1000]

I've done 15 Hours and one of my friends has done 30 hours, Both with no breaks. I wonder if I could get a record....
