the last time i did any real major gamming session was when i got gt4 and that was only for 3 hours or so. i havnt had any hardcore gamming marathons since the days of Q3 and TA where i'd easily spend 12 hours playing.

oh and guitar hero fucking rocks.

Oblivion has changed that - for the first time in a long time I am pretty much consumed by 1 game.

So folks, how long have you been able to sit in front of this (or any game) for one stretch?

I've put a lot of hours into this game, but its usually in 2 hour stretches at the most. Tonight I've played from about 8:30 to midnight with a 1 hour break in there.
I'm sure some of you have put in 8 hour sessions into this game...how do you do it?
It's been a long time since I've done that... can't be bothered, too much living to do. :)
