Timesplitters (original).

Played it until about 2/3 of the way through, got bored of shooting the same things over and over again, put it away, forgot completely about it, found it at the bottom of a drawer 10 goddamned years later, got curious about if there was an ending worth watching in it, and finished the other 1/3.

Turns out there wasn't.

Fuck.

Probably Oblivion. My original save file was over 100 hours and I didn't do any dungeon missions, go in a any dungeons, and only closed the Kvatch Oblivion portal. That's why I'm playing it again and doing all of those things.

FFX if you want a 100% with the monster arena completed, all the Aeons, Celestial Weapons (though you can craft ones 4X more powerful than the celestial weapons), Blitzball, getting all the Overdrives for all characters. the main story line,

probably ocarina of time, probably because I was like a 5 year old at the time which caused the puzzles to be very difficult for me to do.

Took me a good 10 years to 100% Ape Escape for PS1.

Super Mario 64 (Finally beat it a few weeks ago). Fucking camera ruined the game.

I get sick of grinding for a month and finally killing a boss only to find out that the next creature I fight will insta kill me.

i discarded that game when i saw the battle system didnt even had closed battled and almost no dialog was voiced

You can't beat it, it's impossible.

Same... Skyrim here. I did beat it, but after playing for close to 700 hours I think I finally unlocked everything that was in the game. I don't think many games have sucked me in that hard, but its usually single-player games that do.

Other than that I don't think any games have taken me more than 50 hours or so.

At around 400 hours actually now, and only STILL at HR7.

Maybe because I ended up doing a dual swords only run as my FIRST run. Still a pretty great game.

Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars. It took so long mainly because I'm a retard when it comes to RTS games.

I remember I still have to beat Pokemon Stadium 2 as well. Last time I played it was years ago though.

I'm also stuck in round 2 and if I remember correctly I still need the last two challenge cups and the master level 50-55 cup. The comp always seems to screw you on those though, so I gave up.

Xenoblade chronicles took me over 120 hours to finish in game time, and that was far from 100% at the end. I guess I did spend a lot of time pointlessly exploring areas and trying to sneak past monsters that were way over my level.

Real time I started Donkey Kong 64 way back in the 90s and I still haven't finished it. I occassionally go back to it, but I suspect I'm destined to never reach the end.

I'm not entirely sure.

Most likely Disgaea 2. I've easily sunk hundreds of hours into that game. I think the main storyline took me 80 hours. You can probably shave off 10 or more hours if you know what you're doing. Disgaea 2 was my first Disgaea game ever and my first tactical RPG. The only other contenders that have rivaled its playtime are Dragon Age: Origins, Persona 3 and 4, the Fallout universe and Diablo II. I still have a huge back log of games that I've played for countless hours, but haven't completed. Kingdom Hearts 2 for example.

Lol! I'm about 85 hours in, level 35 Nord.

Skyrim is definitely the longest game I have ever played, and surprisingly, it has been as fun now as it was during the first few hours. So much quality content, that the 300+ hours gameplay is justified.

I believe it was Ocarina of time that took me quite a bit of time to complete and probably three different versions of it. I only remember that I was around 5 or 6 when I started with the n64 version, only to get stuck on the great deku tree because I didn't know that you could set webs on fire for about two months. I think I made it passed the last kid link dungeon before getting bored. Then I got the gamecube version some years later and went at it til the water temple then quit, then retried until I reached the water temple again, quit, retry and make it past until I was in the gerudo valley dungeon then quit. I got the master quest version of it and played the vannila OoT on that and beat that in one sitting like a few months ago.

12 years or so I believe. In game time, about six hours.

Paper mario the thousand year door took me three until I decided to cheese it and went the danger mario loadout.
In game time, shortest is 20 hours give or take. Could be shorter, but I end up keeping my system on while I do something else.

I think I didn't beat conker's bad fur day for about six years since I couldn't deal with the controls on the n64 version so I did it on the xbox version.
In game time was a standard run time I think.

i have barely beaten 1% of the games i have played in my life

so many wasted years

seriously? it takes a little over 10 hours, just dodge downward (sidestep) if you wanna survive those one-hit KO moves that the final boss does

Skyrim took me 342 hours to finish it.

I've started three new games in Skyrim since I bought it back in early September and with both Dawnguard and Hearthfire new to me, I've been playing it nearly everyday since. As a gamer who likes to max out/collect/find every last little thing in a game, I can honestly say that I have no idea how long Skyrim will take me to "finish". :P

Other than that, I always find that the Rune Factory and Harvest Moon games take me the longest to complete. I'll often spend several months playing those games, off and on. lol

Took my brother almost 10 years to beat Rocket: Robot on Wheels...a 3d platformer

Mine would probably have to be my 100% Ocarina of Time playthrough...I'm stuck at one part I just cannot beat..

Most MMO'S and strategy games take the longest to beat. The ones that have taken me the longest is "Tales of the Abyss", few LoZ games, Dark Souls, Skyrim, etc.

Any of the pokemon games. I still havent fully completed the pokedex on any of the games I have

Hm. Granstream Saga? I bought it around 2000 or 2001... and I still haven't finished it. But on the other hand, I didn't play it that much, because it's disappointingly bad. I want to finish it sometimes, though.

Apart from MMORPGs which don't count and can't be completed anyway, the longest game it took for me to beat (on a 100% run) was Spyro 3: Year of the Dragon.

Still working on tetris..

Skyrim... I don't even think I finished it but I had A LOT of hours/days/weeks in this game.
It is a great game yea but in the end....I don't think I got "bored" but it was just too long...donno.. :/

Probably Pokemon Blue. I remember I finished the game when I was about 7, and it took one hell of a long time. I still don't know how I managed to catch some legendary Pokemon......

Whatev man I get tired being forced out of my comfort zone to another character every hour and a half. And the boring storyline with no dialogue didn't help matters. Plus it was either play 300 battles with characters i didn't care for at the time to get sonic or go through a 15 hour story mode with a buddy. One would assume the latter would be more enjoyable.
