8000 hours isn't unheard of. It's definitely above average dedication. But it's surprisingly common.

Moreso in MMO style games though, which are notorious / intentional time sinks. I remember that xfire at some point mentioned I had 3000+ hours in Eve Online, but to be honest a lot of that time was spent ship spinning / waiting for something to happen, I'd have the game running passively most evenings for a while, do that every day and you've got ~1500 hours per year already.
