INSIDE. I bought in on cyber Monday for $14 on PSN and I just finished it on Sunday in about 4.5 hours (one sitting).

Remarkable game but I'm not sure how to feel about/interpret its ending.

 

[mr lurtle]

MGS2

Dont ask me how

Same. Might also be the only >5 hour game I ever finished in one sitting.

 

[Vegetable Lasagna]

Sonic Adventure at Dreamcast launch and Jet Set Radio. I also beat Portal three times on launch day.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Pokemon HG. That was a long ass day.

 

[sublimit]

Impossible, considering no other game (except for Diablo 3 and FFVII:R) has/will ever reach that amount of hype. I did 30 or so hours with Bloodborne, which in comparison was a joke :lol

Well since FFVII R will be episodic it will be practically impossible to do it anyway lol.SE cares for your well being.

 

[Menitta]

I beat all of Crysis 3 in one setting. I was left...unsatisfied.

This is a tangent but I remember the first all-nighter I pulled. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Darkness. I was playing it one night and the next thing I know, the sun had risen.

 

[Cheat Code]

Bioshock Infinite and Resident Evil 5 come to mind.

 

[Nielm]

Halo 3: ODST Co-Op on Legendary.

I think I and 3 other friends beat it in one day. Started at about 4PM and finished it by 10PM.

 

[Yoshichan]

Well since FFVII R will be episodic it will be practically impossible to do it anyway lol.SE cares for your well being.

Oh, I was thinking more about pure hype and not hours played :lol but yeah, somehow, some way, I will find a way to crank of 5x the playtime of each and every episode of FFVII:R.

God, just thinking about that game is making me want to do a bunch of crazy shit.

 

[Airola]

I beat Resident Evil: Survivor on PS1 in one sitting because the save system required you to die and I didn't want to.

I recall also playing through Silent Hill: Shattered Memories on Wii in one sitting.


I don't remember how much time they both took.

 

[ATF487]

I think a friend and I played all of Halo Reach in one sitting, only breaks were to get more beer

 

[Okingjrr]

Guacamelee Gold edition. Had to go to store in between time but it's the closest I've got.

 

[krae_man]

Jurassic Park for the SNES. Mostly because you had to as that game was long as fuck and didn't have a save system.

 

[tiebreaker]

Tiny and Big in Grandpa's Leftover.

Journey took me 2 sittings. Could have done in one, but got something else to do.

 

[V3RT!G0]

Star Wars The Force Unleashed on the Wii, had a great time with it.

 

[nkarafo]

Super Mario Land 2.

I finished in my first sitting because it was so easy (only the final stage was challenging). Thankfully, there was enough content left for a "100%".

 

[Phoenix RISING]

The entire mainline Gears of War series (individually, lol).

Halo and Halo 2 (I failed Halo 3 by falling asleep during the first mission).

I have never purchased an Xbox system but my brother does. We marathon the sequels because TRADITION.

 

[Breaking Normal]

ODST and Gears of War 2 in couch co-op with my best friend at the time. Some of my fondest gaming memories.

 

[sublimit]

I was playing it one night and the next thing I know, the sun had risen.

That is such a great feeling when it happens naturally.

 

[Violence Jack]

Resident Evil 5. Beat it in 4 hours at a video game bar.

 

[Indelible]

Probably Heavy Rain or The Order 1886, both took about 8 hours to finish.

 

[sublimit]

Resident Evil 5. Beat it in 4 hours at a video game bar.

Your first playthrough?

 

[Valonquar]

Back when it was first released, a friend & I powered through Final Fantasy Tactics in Japanese in 3 days, in which we slept maybe 8 hours between the 2 of us.

 

[5taquitos]

God of War 3.

Got it the day it came out, me and my buddy powered through it that night. I know it's not a particularly long game, but that's the first time I've ever gone from start to finish in one sitting.

I won't ever do it again either, there was a distinct feeling of emptiness after beating the game in one day.

 

[Yoshichan]

Resident Evil 5. Beat it in 4 hours at a video game bar.

Um...

 

[SigSig]

Metal Gear Solid, I'd guess.

 

[Novocaine]

I think Journey is the only one. Unless you count getting max level in WoW expansions.

Edit nevermind I've beaten a couple of the Halo games in one sitting. 2 and 3.

 

[NotMyUsername]

I've done this a ton.

The longest was 38 hours to beat Donkey King 64 100%. It was either a weekend or summer, can't remember, but I rented it and just kept playing. Obviously I took restroom breaks and ate but I didn't sleep.

 

[freeofgreed]

The first Silent Hill. Pretty recently too.

I've had way, WAY too many of these... but the one that mostly comes to mind is Dark Souls 1 clocking at around 60+ hours (and many symptoms and diseases along with it).

Some people still remember this shit. Never again.

Story time (not for the faint of heart): http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=36925741&postcount=73

Lol Jesus christ. That was amazing.

 

[kit]

Maybe Binding of Isaac on PS4? Took my like 5 or 7 hours to "beat" my first "final" boss

 

[dcassell]

Gears of War 3. Friend and I were way too pumped for it and spent a whole day and night going through the campaign on the hardest difficulty, only taking a small break for five minutes to eat pizza. Being 17 was fun.

 

[ctfg23]

I guess Journey. I also beat Shrek 3 on the Wii in one day. Idk why.

 

[Muffdraul]

EDIT: Totally missed the blind 1st playthrough part...

 

[Roufianos]

I think I may have done this with DMC2 as a child.

Don't even come close these days, can barely manage more than an hour at a time.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Halo 2 campaign. Killzone 2 as well since I rented it from blockbuster wanted to get the sp out of the way.

 

[sotolongospeaks]

I suppose Uncharted 4 was the longest, took me about 14~ hours. I had gotten a copy ahead of launch and it was my most anticipated game of the year, so I plowed through the journey all at once. What a ride.

After that, it's really a toss-up between Bioshock Infinite, The Last of Us & Uncharted 3 which all fell in the 10-12 hour range. I feel U3 was the shortest of the three, but I did all of those in one sitting after picking them up from midnight launches.

 

[Shift Breaker]

Order 1886 is the only game that I got the Platinum trophy for in one sitting.

Same. I had a lot of fun, and the game is gorgeous, but the gap between my first trophy and the plat was just under 4 hours. I can see why this game was slated.

 

[Cardigan]

Limbo and Journey. I don't really do gaming marathons.

 

[TheKastorian]

Journey. Not that long of a game I guess.

 

[Random17]

Mass Effect 1

 

[gutter_trash]

Knack.... LOL

on the Sega Geneis, it was a normal thing to do, play through one sitting

 

[IcyRhythms]

I don't know if it's an age thing or what, but at 32, I can't sit and play games for more than three or four hours anymore. I used to be able to sit for 10-16hrs, depending on the game(with piss and drink breaks of course). I just can't anymore.

 

[13ruce]

Twilight Princess as a kid lol and recently Kirby Planet Robobot.

 

[BinaryBear07]

CoD: MW

 

[GAMETA]

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers on GameCube.

That was a frigging awesome nice game (at least by the time). I remember Saruman kicking my ass real hard hahaha.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

blind? 0 Ain't nobody got time for all that.

 

[AdamMcKraken]

Every Gears of War game on HC

 

[dcx4610]

I played the original Half-life from start to finish in one sitting. I didn't want to stop. Every new area I would say to myself, just one more but it was so compelling I couldn't quit. It took about 15 hours total. Basically playing from the moment I woke up until it was time to go back to bed.

 

[pikablu]

Last of Us
Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles

 

[ChaosAngel]

The last one I can remember doing blind is The Last Story. Clocked in at 25 hours at the end. Had a really good sleep after that one.
