Hour-and-a-half weekdays and five solid on weekends? Pfft.

Fair enough. Who the heck doesn't play an hour or an hour and a half (pushing it a little) of video games per night? If you've worked 7-8 hours, come home, had a nice meal, watched something on TV or done what needs to be done around the house, it's time to switch off for an hour (I'll stick to one hour and probably lie about that).

I need it to unwind.

I don't play an hour and a half per day. Sometimes I don't play for a whole month when there's a drought of quality titles (like this month for me). Now that I have Heavy Rain and all those huge games coming I'll probably play 5 hours a day

A month at a time!? May I recommend NHL2010 to you?

Madness...you realize you could play international events on there as well? Like the road to Gold if you want?

I can't fathom not playing that game regularly.

I just rented Fallout 3. It had better be fun!

I also rented Darksiders (I think it's called) and then Dante's Inferno. I got halfway through in both, they're awesome fun for the hack and slash fan.

Fallout 3? If running around and talking for hours is fun then you're right

No, I do not enjoy that in the least. Running around and fighting things and getting upgrade points? I like that.

Well if you like the Elder Scrolls kind of game then you'll like it but I would say in 10 hours you will fight 10% of the time...

MLB the Show: 10

If you're a baseball fan, you need this game.

Unbelievable.

Not a video game but I recently purchased the Simpsons Pinball Party and I am really enjoying it.

I got an advance copy of Final Fantasy 13 last night, but I'm really hesitant to start it right now. There's probably the usual 10 hours of tutorial/story/CG cut scenes that introduce the whole game - and frankly that's always annoyed me. I can be quite impatient.

Don't get me wrong, I'll play the crap out of this game once I get going, but that first 10 hours is gonna be tough.

No but I've read numerous reviews.
They say it's very different from previous FFs, more linear and focusses more on story. I think I'm gonna love this game.

I hope so, I loved FF10 and 10-2 and 12, so I hope it's at least in the same realm.
