Longest Game Time

[Nimf 324]

Okay so gamers are usually comparing notes on how fast they have completed a game. But sometimes a game just won't behave and it can take forever to complete it.

 

What game took you the longest to complete and how long did it take?

[Guest Al Stevens]

Longest ones for me

 

Zelda: Link to a past - 8 months

 

COD4 - 5 months

[Guest Jayfunk]

FF7 took an age, months

[Nimf 324]

My middle son just completed Super Mario Sunshine, it took him 4 years... Well he is only 8!!!

[Guest MojoPogo]

I played FF17 for 280 hours. Not all at once obviously, but it stretched out over a year. To be honest, i could have done it quicker, but i wanted to see everything.

[Guest Rebekah]

It took me 3 weeks to complete GTA Vice City

[Nimf 324]

That's not long!! That's pretty fast!

[Guest Chriscare]

Most games take me months and months to complete as i only play em for about half an hour at a time and go on and off them.

[Guest Frank Botch]

I spent a total of 115 hours on Mass Effect.

 

I think I need to get a job.

[Paul 584]

Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.

 

Over 300 hours all in all (over 3 different games so to get different results and stories).

[Guest Taki]

I'm terrible I very rarely ever finish a game normally get hooked for a few weeks then lose interest when I get stuck I've had consoles most my life and think I've only ever completed 5 games.

I bought Metal Gear Ac!d 2 on the PSP two years ago and have never cleared it because it annoys the crap out of me.

 

The longest I actually took to fully complete a game was FIFA Street 2 as I would go through phases or playing it and then being bored of it - overall it took me 18 months to finally complete it.

[Guest Frank Botch]

Ah I thought it was longest on one playthough.

 

All together in three Mass Effect games I've racked up 308 hours.

[Evil Gringo 279]

I played Super Mario 3 on the NES for about 24 hours straight to clear it as you couldn't save on the NES, unlike the version that was on the Super Mario All-Stars game on the SNES.

 

I REALLY wanted to clear that game.

[Guest Fiona]

My middle son just completed Super Mario Sunshine, it took him 4 years... Well he is only 8!!!

 

We bought Zelda Windwaker when it came out and I'm still on the first island. I have no idea how long that's been. Years now. I can't work the Windwaker and the red boat keeps getting mad at me. I figure by the time I'm 80 I'll be finished. I hope.:lol

[Guest ScottyB]

Pokemon games take forever.

[Guest Davros]

Not sure if it really counts as I don't think its a game you can complete - but I have an on going game of Champ Manager 01/02 That I have been playing on and off for about 2 years.

 

I'm currently in season 2040/41!

[ShaolinHandLock 73]

Croc on the original PlayStation. It took me over 5 or 6 years to beat the first boss (the boss is incredibly easy to defeat if you know how....but I didn't!).:doh32:

 

I don't think I will ever get around to finishing Croc....:lol

[Guest Nemesis Enforcer]

Zelda: Links Awakening

 

First game I ever played on the old Game Boy and it took me 3 years to complete it because I could not for the life of me figure out how to get the the final boss though the maze of rooms... it turned out there was a specific order you had to enter into the rooms and if you got it wrong in one room you had to start again through the order :(

[Guest Fiona]

Oh another one I had problems with was Link Ocarina of Time. I couldn't get into Death Mountain. I didn't know you had to bomb the Goron that was rolling around. I bombed everything else first.

 

Finally after months of pulling my hair out I went to a store opened a strategy guide and within 4 minutes knew exactly what I had to do. It took months for me to complete the game anyways after that.
