As the title says, I thought this could be interesting to see and for people to compete hours against others.

Post your most played game in hours, or most played games with highest hours.

To keep comments from getting spammed, feel free to post a maximum of 1-3-5 Games, Feel free to update your comment whenever you want :)

My most played games hour,
  1. Fallout 3 - Average 50,000 hours. - Own the CD version and Steam version.
  2. ARMA: Armed Assault - ( average 40k) - CD version. "GOLD EDITION"
  3. Arma 2 - Average again about (average 30k) - Owned it since release - includes steam and CD
  4. Fallout 4 - ( 7.842)
  5. Arma 3 - 632 hours.
  6. Star Trek Online 537 hours.

I played a good lot of CoH back in the day. THAT with a good crowd on LAN was totally awesome... and actually still is.

Dota, I don't know it has something that when it grabs you by the balls, it won't ever let go. Plus the community, I mean you get to troll everyone all the time and you're always so handsomely rewarded, its brilliant, especially if you then proceed to own the game :D Good fun! But if you can't get into Dota you never will, the skillcap is pretty damn high. Ever since they 'updated Dota 2 the last time though, I cant play it anymore, they kinda raped it. Shame, but probably for the best given my playtime, game's been around for over 10 years now ^^

That Fallout 4 playtime of yours though... like... how?!?!

Ahhh, the youth and single men with their thousands of hours in games.... :)

I think my highest is BF4 with 777 hours (over 3.5 years). That was since release day. I really don't play much else... any other game over that time span is easily under 100 hours.

Back when I put that kind of time in, there weren't automatic counters... these days the best I can muster in a single game is the 200+ I have in skyrim. Have several at 150-175 and it tapers from there. I just don't have the time these days...even if I did I have other hobbies as well.

Yikes... scary... how old are you? Live in parents basement? How the hell can you manage 14 hours a day every day for 550+ days???????????????????????????????

Nah, just don't spam like 1million gillian games, because then it becomes real, it's why i limited the games mentioned.

I barely sleep, and barely leave the house, I'm not on daily though as can see i play other games. my steam stream is always on (so game isn't just open) and I always have my status set to online, anyone can watch HA!

Think that's bad, you heard of the game runescape?? where it can show you how much exp you gain in a skill? I was awake for pretty much a whole week training 99 Prayer.

Also pretty much stayed up a whole week to max my Star Trek Online character.

I'm healthy as hell, no problems nothing, I've been playing games since i used a "Sega Mega Drive"

Life... get one. :)
HA!, gaming is life my friend hehe :p Only a few things I love in life are:

Games, Anime, Cartoons, Arts, Trains, Movies like the avengers / starship troopers e.c.t.

Unreal Tournament 2004 - 2 million hours.

UT is a fantastic game!, I own the whole series every single UT game.
UT 3 was one of the best it's a shame that barely anyone plays it now! that game was a change in the UT franchise ! wish they'd make an UT 4!!!

Unreal 2 the awakening now that was amazing!!! if only they made more games like that, :love: i wonder why it was the only one of it's kind it's very sad.

I mean I'm okay with having no life but how the fuck do you have 7k hours on F4?


I have 2030ish on CS:GO, 1300 on L4D2 (at least 1k on the original, but that was before Steam logged hours), 300 in DayZ on Steam but that number is closer to 500, probably 750ish. 568 hours of Rocket League.

I think he said he leaves it on and walks away from it? But the words he typed said he leaves his stream on... the stream, AFAIK, doesn't matter. You need to be IN GAME for the hours to count...

14 hours a day.. on AVERAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL! That isn't including any other game!!! And he doens't play it "daily" so its even more!!! Even when I was a teen in school I couldn't put that much time in games...I feel bad for the kid honestly... needs some air......... unless he's a pro gamer and getting paid?

But yeah, I'd love to hear the age and living situation of that honestly... lol!

Because fallout is my best overall game when comes to open worlds, before i started playing fallout, I never known such words or the meanings of (RPG, OPEN WORLD) and such, games were just games and unless you include Operation FlashPoint Cold war crises, Fallout was my first ever ever open world game I ever played in my entire live! I own all the fallout games on CD and on Steam.

Even today, I treat all games as well.. JUST GAMES... because what's with abbreviation category, a game is for fun! nobody got time for that crap. HA!

Like I said anyone can watch, me play i'm not playing it right now, i've got swtor to play.
Games are an addiction to me, i've loved games my whole life since megadrives, - MS DOS playing raptor and thomas games and more. to windows 95 gaming - windows 98 gaming, - vista gaming, - windows 7 gaming - windows 10 gaming.

And like I said with runescape, thing is with runescape only way to get continues 7 days worth of exp in prayer is botting = ban, or play legitly. and I'm not banned and have played for over 7 years. I take gaming serious!

Usually i'll play a game let' me think of a time, ugh, let's say I wake up at 9am, I'll usually be up till like 4-5 am the next day.. Either on Skype, Steam and such. Always awake playing games with my mates online. < if don't believe me you are welcome to spend a week gaming with me and keeping to that schedule let's see how long you last! I'm a gamer, a nerd.. I have no social life I am happy with my life HAHA!

I think he said he leaves it on and walks away from it? But the words he typed said he leaves his stream on... the stream, AFAIK, doesn't matter. You need to be IN GAME for the hours to count...

I said I'm always on the game, and my stream is always switched on people can watch me and see me actually playing when I'm playing.

HA, runescape :love: must admit EOC destroyed it but damn is that game great lol even if you just troll on it. Close to maxing my 3rd account, only need Farming, Divination, Slayer and Invention.

I haven't played consistently in a while. In fact, I ended my membership just a couple months ago. Shitty updates and Jagex prioritizing micro-transactions over the growth of the game is a real turn off. I haven't been impressed with much they've done in several years.
