Maybe an hour or so every other weekday. Weekends I might set aside 4 or 5 hours a day.

About 7 hours a week, maybe more, maybe less.

In college I was doing probably 8-10 hours a day. It was pretty bad for a while. Since I've been working I've cut down to maybe 12 hours a week.

Depends on how much work I've got to do for my University courses, and how many hours I've got at work. I also play a lot more when I've got a new game I've been excited about. If I'm not really into anything at the moment, maybe 2 hours a day at most during the week, with a little more during the weekend. When I'm not busy and I've got something like Fire Emblem Fates to play, I'll play a great deal more. I was averaging more than 5 hours a day according to my 3DS when I was playing FEF: Conquest over the past couple weeks.

It really fluctuates for me as well so it's hard to put a definitive number down. When tests or school in general are really tough then I don't game as much, but on easy weekends or vacation I usually play more. I don't watch TV or movies though, so I usually game when I have free time at the end of the weekday. If I had to guess I would say maybe 1 - 1.5 hours a day on average.

Probably somewhere in the 7 hours/week range. Being married with kids does a good job at restricting my playtime.

To be completely honest over the past two years or so I have not gamed nearly as much.  It used to fill most of my free time, but except for a few cases where I have gotten really into a game, I probably only get a couple of hours of gaming in a week if that.  I don't know why, but often I'll start a game and then just not find as much enjoyment as I used to and end up thinking about work, school, etc. while playing rather than relaxing. I hope to change that with the recent release of Twilight Princess HD and my upcoming spring break :)

It honestly varies a lot. I may go a few weeks without touching a controller only to melt into my couch for hours at a time. I usually feel a bit guilty if I spend more than two or three hours on one sitting, though. It all comes down to my schedule.

When I was younger, I was so intensely involved, I had to play, I was playing over and over and over, then I grew up, went into the military. Lost the fun. Then fell in love with it all over again. So in the asking of times. It varies day to day. From 1 hr. To all day sometimes

Few hours a day, sometimes more since I have enough free time for it, so I usually end up doing a lot of gaming. Upwards of 50 a week probably.
