CyberGadget are known for selling peripherals for game devices such as cases, cables and wot not. They have recently come out with a product called Game Sapuri which are vitamin supplements for folks who spend a long time gaming. They want you to stay alive while gaming so that you can buy more of their products. You be spending long times gaming? The most I've spent on one game was probaby one of the first Devil May Cry games at 15 hours.

lol wow people can sell anything. The most time I've spent gaming is about 11 hours, but I was taking breaks. I was playing Final Fantasy Tactics and mostly just leveling up.

Haha, yes, I remember bullying those Chocobos for JP and Gil ("Got Gil?") when having my team as thieves (didn't know about "the trick" back then).
FFT, one of the very few games where backstabbing and bullying are a way of life. Good times. I should resume my game real soon. ^^

I've been gaming for something like 18 years. And yeah you get tired, but I don't think you really need these, proper feeding and decent habits let me play for something like 14 or 16 hours on weekends (switching between Xbox360, Wii and DS), taking breaks for eating and attending natures call...

Devil May Cry was one of those games that I couldn't put down until it was finished. But I do make sure I eat and such while playing, I'm not determined enough to deprive my body of essentials.

LOL, that's so funny. XD Maybe they should put a limiter in all the consoles and limited ppl playing for 3hrs only and need to rest for 1/2hr before they can keep playing. =P
(ID #167669) Posted on 2008/04/07 15:09
That could be defied by having more than one game console in your household. Or some would just find that function annoying and rather damage its sales.
(ID #167678) Posted on 2008/04/07 15:19
LOL... Being temporarily banned by the console. Picture this, will you: "You're an addict! I will shut myself down for thirty minutes. Go do something constructive or rest by then. No, I will not listen to your excuses. No bribing, no threats. No candies either!" Hmm, I'm not sure players would like to have a virtual parent that would especially make them obey rules. Jack "Move Zig for Great Justice" Thompson would love this idea though.

I spend tons of time gaming. The longest I went was for over one day with my friends beating Halo 3 on Legendary, getting most of the skulls, and then playing some Live for at least 9 hours. All that was keeping us going was Jones soda, Bawls, Starbucks Frappuccinos, caffeine gum, and whatever we could get out hands on. This was the first day(midnight) that the game came out BTW. And yeah, halo 3 is pretty amazing, but I am no fanboy.

Danny, are these addictive? I once spend 24 hrs on FFXII, and I almost spend 2 day straight playing GTASA. I just don't know if this drug is "supportive" somehow.

I think the longest I've played was 20+ hours when I was into WoW (with breaks of course), but that was like years ago during the summer when I was really into it. Still play now, but can't stand being on for more than3 hours. As far as consoles, I can go 10+ hours playing any rpg I'm interested. I think yesterday I played Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn for 11 hours, but mostly from restarts since I get so frustrated when one of my character dies.

Most time invested in a game marathon...hard to say, never bothered to keep tabs...maybe 20+ hours? Most time invested in a single game; console: 260+ hour (Star Ocean: The Second Story - retired), MMORPG: 370 days (Final Fantasy XI - retired)... Yeah, those products...if only they had them when I was younger...
(ID #167743) Posted on 2008/04/07 18:21
The longest time I ever played was I think 15-16 hrs, playing Final Fantasy XI - Online. That time I was really addicted to the game ^^;

I maxed out at around 13 or 14 hours. Couldn't go on after that - it wasn't just my eyes, my fingers were beat. Then again, I didn't take any breaks except for that 5-minute excursion to the microwave for lunch. But anime...now you're talking. Consecutive, no break, 23 hours. x_X" ...though seriously, something's wrong when we start boasting about how unhealthy and shut-in at home we're being.

my longest marathon was 12 continous hour, playing counter strike in a cyber cafe...i nearly fainted when i walked out of the cyber cafe....as if suddenly the world slowed down and i couldnt adapt to it... i have heard of news, that kids from taiwan, hk or japan playing non-stop for 3 days ++ and died in from of the computer...can anyone verify this?? is it true?? what happened?
(ID #167748) Posted on 2008/04/07 18:38
Don't think I would use those. I'm currently in a weekend marathon of Okami. It's one of those games I think about even when I'm not playing.

The longest I ever spent gaming was about 24hrs straight. This was back when Final Fantasy 7 was first released. Haven't done anywhere near that long since and definitely won't do it again.

I think I was 17 at the time and had just gotten my Playstation. My co-workers and friends were bragging about how far they had gotten in the game. I was very determined to catch up to them. Now if I play a game longer then 5 hours at a time I get annoyed. But I think that was due to playing games like Dark Age of Camelot and World of Warcraft.

Word of advice: This won't stop you from dying after 40+ hours of straight gaming. Anyways, I spend tons of time gaming... mostly when I was a kid. But it's not unusual even today to keep 8+ hours on Counter Strike Source. Specially when I'm away from it more than a week...

my only supplement while playing game is a can of coke (coca-cola) and some aspirins. I play a lot of first-person-shooter (FPS) games like quake 3 arena and the latest COD4. after playing a few rounds, my head will start spinning and it aches like hell. just take the tablets + coke and get some sleep
(ID #167996) Posted on 2008/04/08 06:04
My record was 14-15 hours on RPGs like Grandia, Disgaea 2,FF(all), and recientlly, Persona 3. On fighting games, when learn to control a character, or with serious versus challengers(online, or face-to-face), I also can spend lot of hours. Who needs drugs when have freak power! LOL Jeje,by the way, the most extreme cases of marathon playing I know is two friends playing Soulcalibur one vs one during 24 hours, playing 12 of this with the two same characters, and in the same scenario, and other, one of the two sicks I mention before playing Zelda Twinling Princees during 36 horus... Maybe you image it, but my friend is a true NEET, so isn`t really difficult to him do such prodigy...

What makes these supplements special for gaming? I mean we have regular vitamins and all just laying around. What can they do that regular supplements can't? Lower carpal tunnel occurrences? Increase tapping speed? Focus casted so that you can hit 30% and dodge 30% more than you would normally can? How about the ability to see everything through bullet time for a short moment in time...? Someone tell me?!?!!?! What are these really for Danny?
