You guys are nuts. I can't do anything for more than two hours at a time, video games included.

Don't criticize a game for being boring if your favorite games aren't fun enough to keep you entertained for more than two hours at a time

Is not about the fun factor on the game, there are very very very very few games that i play for over 3 hours because i force myself to stop playing and go to do something else.

What. You guys don't play Soulcalibur V against a friend with the same two characters for 75 matches straight? That's how me and one of my good friends spent a good 5-ish hours a few weekends back. It's so frustrating losing matches over and over but so much fun if you can get into the competitive spirit of things. I lost 50 of those 75 matches.

But last weekend we played a few at the end of a night of Jojo All Star Battle, SFxT, and SCV and I won probably 7 out of 10.

I love it. Could do this sort of thing for 10 hours straight. Really helps you get into the mindset of reading your opponents, learning their tendencies, how to counter them, etc.

Best i can do is 20-25 and we constantly change characters so that way we don't know who is gonna win becuase we don't know how to play with all the characters

Ah, I see. I'm a one character kind of guy for most games. I pick one, good or not, and just stick with them. And I generally pick because of appearance, lol. Pretty shallow.

My Leixia vs my friend's Astaroth. Over and over. It's so much fun. And a good way to learn my character. Despite not knowing her combos that well, I have definitely learned a lot. And I love the intensity of doing the same rematch over and over.

I recently learned her best attack too. Well, it's at least amusing. When knocked down if you do the right inputs you can kick your feet like a little kid and whine. It's cute. My goal is to finish matches that way, but it's tough because Astaroth kills me in 4-6 hits. So taking a hit on purpose is difficult. Unless there's an easy way to lay down in SC. Not sure!

These "how many hours do you play?" discussions are great at revealing who is married/has kids/etc and who doesn't.

Well not quite. I often play games for long stretches...

Only thing I do in long stretches is play banjo on the porch here.
