I once played 6 or 7 straight hours of FF7. Am I loser? Maybe. But that game was tight! What about everyone else out there? What's the longest amount of time you spent playing a game in one sitting?

The weekend Driver came out. When it was released I was about to go away for a week. I got so hooked that I had to absolutely beat the game or the vacation would have been unbearable. I don't remember the exact time I spent, but it got so down to the wire that I didn't pack my luggage until right after I beat the game. Which was about two hours before my friends picked me up.

During college, 2 friends and I played PGA golf for the Sega for essentially 2 straight days (over a weekend). We slept in shifts, went out to get food while the other guys played, etc. We were hooked. The only problem was when the guy that actually owned the game showed up to retrieve it, and we had to "convince" him to let us keep it.

Definitely over 24 hours, with bathroom breaks and snack breaks. And one trip to the store for smokes.

Probably 6-8 hrs with only bathroom breaks, 10-16 with food breaks. Games I can think of are FFIII, FFVII, Zelda-Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time.
