    Default It depends on what else is in your life

    For me, that would be WAY too much. That would mean when I came home from work, I'd be playing until 11:00 pm. That means no time for my wife or just about anything else...

    The more I think about it... 5 hours a day is too much for anyone. Get out and do something... there's so much more to life than just staring at a box pretending to do something. Get out there and ACTUALLY DO IT. It's so much cooler. It's a bit harder, but it's so much better.

    yeah the xbox is the greatest thing since sliced bread but, 5 hrs. is a bit to much! I have just way to much to do, and girlfriends to please. I would love to have that much time to play each day, but I think I would also get burnt out to soon!

    i usually play for about an hour a day, i play for like 20 min when i get home from school, then like 40 minutes after dinner. you should get outside, i dont really get outside that often, but when i do, im playin golf, and its fun, probly as fun as playin xbox, maybe even more fun!

    If I'm not working or doing activities with my best friend (my wife), I am playing my XBox. I usually play anwhere from a quick 30min - 1 hour session...or an organized game session between 3-8 hours!

    All I can say is Halo via Gamespy! When you get a few dudes, a case of frosty beverages, and playing Halo on Gamespy on a 43" Widescreen HDTV, only good times are at hand!

    Default Hella long

    5 hours?! Do you go outside?
    When I am not playing xbox (1hr mon-fri, 4hr weekend) i am either playing baseball, with my friends or with my girlfriend.
    I play baseball too much, like an addict. I want to know how to even try out for the minors and work my way up.

    think about that... only a 5 hour work day, making at least 2 million dollars a year, only for half a year. If that was for me I would buy a lot of xbox games.

    *back in reality

    That is just a dream. anyway, i think 5 hours is way too much, for me anyway...

    hey, maximus. as soon as i get cable we should go one on one in slayer or oddball or something. like 50 frags.

    American beer has plenty. As much as the foreign ones, my friend. Get your hands on a good microbrew like Dominion or Foggy Bottom in my area, and you're drinkin' good beer. I love drinking beer for the taste and its effects!

    I gotta say, nothing better than multiplayer halo or simpsons road rage as a drinking game! Not that I condone that sort of thing...
    The problem with being better than everyone else is that they tend to assume you're prententious.

    Yeah, I took a swig of that §h|+ before the end of a SF Demons game. I puked when I got home. I gave the bottle to my brother and he took it home.

    but oh god, it is bitter.
