5. An Hour Quickly Becomes Five
I might be the only one who experienced this sensation, but it seems to be an event that is often hard to recreate in gaming. You pick up the controller as you dive into the game, and instantly that one hour gaming session became a five hour plus session. Luckily, you didn't have to get up early for work.
