On average, how many hours a day/week do you play video games?

[Prowler]

For me it depends. I can go days/weeks without playing an hour or less than that per day. There's others where I'll play about 2-3 hours per day.

So, I'm gonna say about 7 to 14 hours a week usually.

What about you?

[Icebot]

It depends for me as well, on the days I have to go to work, I would say on average 30 minutes a day but on my days off, maybe 2 hours a day on average.

[snake]

None anymore.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Too little quite honestly not enough

[DestronMirage22]

I'd say a good five hours a week. But that's not nearly as much as I'd like.

[Cure]

All day every day, boyeeee.

[CyberCubed]

At least 1 hour a day, on weekends/day off at least 2-3 hours.

People who don't play videogames are missing out. In just the last few years so many excellent games came out.

[ProactiveMan]

Less than three hours a week.

[kaptainmyke]

I play quite a few hours. Daily. add me on psn: "kaptainmyke"

It's funny but I used to play more on a daily basis when I was a kid/teenager. Even though back then I was "forced" to study and do my homework by my parents, unlike nowadays where I can choose when I feel like studying or doing some uni work. So you'd think I'd manage to play less games when I was a kid and my mother told me near midnight to turn off the console and go to bed

There are just too many great games coming out. The PS3/360 gen had so many excellent games it's ridiculous, and I'm not talking about FPS either, but it had so many great games in so many genre's.

Plus Nintendo games have been consistently good on Wii and DS, and now 3DS and Wii-U/Switch.

It's insane, videogames are so much better than movies or TV shows. They've caught up and surpassed them entirely. Why would I want to watch someone be a hero in a movie when *I* can be the hero myself in a videogame? Now that games are so realistic we don't need action movies anymore.

I used to play a lot of video games when I was younger, and had more games to play with.

It is quite a different scenario nowadays since I hardly ever play anything. I used to be able to play within an online game site, and it recently got shut down.

I'm still bummed about that.

On average 0 hrs/day, but when I get hooked into a game I can play it from a few minutes daily to an hour. Depending what type of game it is, if you give me a RTS game I can spend an entire afternoon playing it or if I just want to beat a game I spend about an 1 1/2 every day until I finish it but for the most part I don't really game much and the previous examples are the exceptions of me not usually playing games.

It's also hard to define playing games, does the electronic sudoku on my phone that I use on the subway count? I am counting it but there are such passive games that I hardly count as really "playing" a game.

People who only play videogames are missing out. In just a few steps from how you'll find so many excellent things to do.

Games aren't realistic at all, games have become crappy movies since they don't have the high quality writers of movies so you're left with a repetitive game or without any real challenge now. There are tons of great movies that only if you watch hollywood blockbusters you'll never understand. You can read books and use your imagination to tell a story. There are very few video game stories that are even on the caliber of good movies/shows and I'm talking about the "critically acclaimed" stories on video games. Seriously watch some of those "Video Game The Movie" that compile all the cutscenes and story elements of games, you'll get bored out of your mind and see how ridiculous the story is that you only forgive because you are playing as the character and it helps transition between two levels.

It's really hard to say exactly. I'll try to sneak away to play my Nintendo Classic and then my son will come in and say that he wants to play. So I might end up getting in maybe like an hour for the whole week?

Not that much recently. The last two games that I spent a lot of time playing were Zelda - A Link Between Worlds and Sonic Boom - Fire and Ice.

I love A Link Between Worlds. Breath of the Wild just rubbed me wrong with all the weapon durability stuff and things like that and so I actually would say that I had more fun with A Link Between Worlds than I did with Breath of the Wild. I know that's just me but that's just how I feel about it. I also enjoyed Wind Waker and Ocarina more than BOTW as well.
