Oh man I thought I was the only one. I just spent 3 hours at work searching for an old letter to a gaming magazine (has to be either CGW, EGM or the impossible to find Computer Game Review, and almost certainly from the early/mid 90s). The guy in the letter was reminiscing about how when Ultima first came out, he would wake up, play it for 14 hours straight, eat a tv dinner and sleep for a couple hours before waking up and doing it all again. I remember my best friend and I reading that letter and making fun of the guy. Then we spent the next 10 hours taking turns playing Might and Magic III.
I'm almost positive the letter was in Computer Game Review and CD-ROM Entertainment, which I remember being my favorite PC gaming magazine, but unfortunately does not seem to be archived anywhere.
