We know how long you play these things. MMOs aren't sprints, they're marathons. When you sit down to play one of these things ... sure, you could just be doing a quick quest or a 15-minute scenario, but more likely you're going to try to get in a couple of hours of gaming. That means you want to be comfortable, right? You want to have an easy a time as possible physically moving around your desktop. Well, we've got just the thing to help you out. Massively and the PC peripherals juggernaut Razer are banding together to do a series of giveaways, and first up is a nice simple one that (we hope) will make you more comfortable moment-to-moment.
We've got two Destructor Mousing Surfaces here (each worth $39.99), high end pads that make the simple act of sliding around your mouse all the more comfortable. Couldn't be easier to enter this little contest. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling us how long you usually play in your standard MMO play session. You'll need to comment before 7:00 AM EST Thursday, October 9th. You can only enter once per person, and when the contest closes we'll ship out these fantastic prizes to two randomly-selected winners. To win you must be age 18 or up and a resident of the US or Canada (excluding Quebec). For full eligibility details, we suggest you read our official rules. Good luck!

The days of my ten-hour gaming marathons are long passed. These days my usual session is about two-three hours at a sitting.

My average play session is 2.5 - 3 hours. Real life comes first. I guess... ;)

On weekdays I'll probably just get in a couple hours after work. 2 or 3 hours generally.
On weekends though, all bets are off. I easily game on my MMOs for 10 hours at a time with a couple breaks. Just this weekend I spent approximately 9 hours each day. This is pretty standard for me, but the funny thing is I'm not even that hardcore at it. I don't even have one character in any game who is max level (this includes Warcraft which I haven't had an active subscription in since April 2007)

I normally play three hours a night when if nothing pressing is happening and the chores are done. On weekends, I'll play all day, again, if nothing else is going on.

With work and family, uninterrupted time is a rare commodity. I can grab 1-3 hours at a time if I hit the PC late, late at night.

Usually 3-4 hours during the summer... lately though, between my Masters work and setting the foundation for a LLC I have been lucky to get an hour a week. If I am doing research for a project (could be either for Masters or the LLC) I can get 5 - 6 hours in a day for 2 weeks at a time.
