Was playing Armed and Dangerous last night and wouldn't put it down untill I clocked it, big mistake as I didn't clock it untill 5:30. Didn't start playing it untill 10:00. Whats your longest stint without going to sleep?

the question should really be how many hours in a row have you played a game? Not how late you have stayed up. People going to think your hard if you allege to staying up all night R63. I think not! Anyway, when I first got it I played tony hawks 4 four about 8 hours throughtout the day. It sucked. lol

I said "they" not "I" :), going by the Leaderboards, quite a few Americans must have spent 12 hours plus solidly on RSC2 since the patch came out (yesterday).

PS. I do wear glasses, and have 2 kids so have no problem staying up 'til 2.00 then getting up at 6.30 5 days a week, sleep is for wimps as Del Boy once said.

I forgot to mention my gingerness and beard :)

Played XIII until 4 in the morning when it was the only game I had. forgot to save it, but couldn't be bothered to play catch-up because it was crap. Stayed up all night before playing Tony Hawks 2 until I got the million (that was a lot back then)!

on certain forums they have similar things to this. "Who can stay awake the longest" basically playing games most of the time and you have to post in the relevant thread every 30/60 mins to prove your awake :)

24 hours is nothing, get past 3 days and your getting there.
