ceedot Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Don't? You will probobly last 20 hours. If you really want to, go to 7-11 and get 'nodoze'. Don't go crazy with them, and don't harm yourself, otherwise you'll just be a dickhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuddenSight Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 a good nites rest before the day of release, coffee, coke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuroki Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 a good nites rest before the day of release, coffee, coke Pretty much sums it up. Sleep well the night before -- if you don't, you're screwed -- to prep for the 24 hour grind. I wouldn't recommend popping pills or anything like that; take brief power naps if necessary (about 20-30 minutes in length) and you should be fine.

~Neon~ Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Ecstasy Seriously though, energy drinks or energy pills (the legal ones) like Pro Plus will help keep you awake a little longer but don't rely on them. Taking loads can make you feel sh*t and you will only end up having a nasty comedown after. Trust me . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking loads can make you feel sh*t and you will only end up having a nasty comedown after. Trust me . Plus you're just a total loser if you want to stay up for 24 hours to play a video game. Seriously, we've waited years for this game, why the hell do you want to run through it as fast as you can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelvinellenton Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Coffeine and junkfood... I kept awake for 28 hours that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinda Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 that does seem and incredible waste of game/ life. i dont think ill even attempt missions for my 1st day, just immerse myself in this wondrous world weve waited so long for. also bear in mind your console probably wont appreciate it either.

Psych Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 a good nites rest before the day of release, coffee, coke Yea man, contact your local dealer for some coke it's sure to keep you awake provided you got enough to last. If you're really serious about having a good time, check out legal high speed tablets, it's impossible to sleep on those things if you take one at night. It'll only give you big pupils and make you think you're really really enjoying yourself...even though you will be. EDIT: I'd just like to add that it's actually healthier to take one of these legal high tablets compared to drinking f*ck loads of caffeine. It's a fact that's overlooked very often and you really should consider if you're serious about your health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptianBadass Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Lol, In the past, ive had my luck staying awake with adderall. (dunno how to spell it). Just one will keep you awake and focused. I enjoy smokin pot and takin one becuase you are stoned, yet alert and awake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yatesyz Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Why do you want to play it for that long? Just play on it for a few hours at a time and you will enjoy it more and not get bored of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punple Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 also bear in mind your console probably wont appreciate it either. I think it's pretty messed up that we actually think it's just "business as usual" that our consoles can't take a lot of use. We just take it at face value that our ~400eur equipment can't do what it's made to do for 24 hours straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
