How much time in a week do you spend GAMING?

Ok guys I know that this is totalt crazy but how much time in a week do you spend on gaming??Regardless of the type i.e. PC,X-Box,PS3,2,1... and so on.

I recently counted the number of hours I spent in one week on gaming on the PC and was totaly shocked!!

A wopping 26hrs

And if you dont think thats bad lets consider that there are only 168hrs in a week and 56hrs are spent sleeping(if you sleep 8hrs that is) and 40hrs working that only leaves 72hrs and if you bath, cook, eat, have a social life and do all the other things that normal people do then, that lets say is another 40hrs, it leaves you with 32hrs for gaming.

So doing a bit more math it gives 81.25% of my free time gaming Dahmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!! Thats a lot.

So what about you how much of your life in a week do you spend on gaming?????

Wow, thats quite a bit of time.

I honestly don't spend much time gaming anymore. It varies week to week, but I probably only play 2-6 hours, max (as in, when a new game comes out). Sometimes not at all anymore.

In the past year I'd have to go with 4 hours a week spread across my PC, PS2 and Wii. Although, this past couple of weeks that's been upped to at least 20-25 hours thanks to a MTW2:Kingdoms mod on the weekends.

Generally, 0. A few days a month, I go all hardcore and spend the entire day gaming though.

Hmm i guess between 20 and 30 hours a week, depending programs on TV
A few hours a day in the week and at least 10 hours during the week-end, if i'm at home and got free time, but i assume sometimes it can be twice ^^

About 2-3 hours every other day. Mostly CoD 4 at night when my girl is sleeping.

I hardly watch TV and try to spend time out and about though so that number is shrinking and I honestly spend more time on DH and downloading and tweaking my computer than anything else.

I'm gonna say about 35 - 40 hours a week, now. It's summer, and I'm really into TF2 and BF2.

hehe diablo 2...I have my weeks of being hooked on that game too.

I don't play too much anymore; 5-10 hours a week I'd say. I play my ds almost exclusively now. Final Fantasy IV is kickass

Well, need a new computer so don't game too much really these days and busy doing other things, so much to catch up on with old friends and family and to do with life (as moving somewhere else is always a big change) so not really gaming much either, I'd say less than an hour on my game boy advance, and sometimes a friend's console just for the fun of it, been playing lots of pool and bar games as well lately (foosball, darts, etc). And when varsity starts in the fall, I'll pretty much be in the same galoshes as Chris is as well.

Edit: I have the top score on Simon now though. Took me about 30 mins...

Counting PC/Wii, probably like Vikingod, 2-6 hours a week. But if I count playing DChoc Solitaire on my cell phone, probably 15-20. (I do play some other phone games, but they usually last a few hours; Spiderette is for ever...)
