Is there a program that will display what time it is in PC games?

lol, that is awesome. Reminds me of the game Mousetrap when I was a kid.

Honestly, the OP should just invest in a wrist watch. A simple look at his wrist would tell the time well enough.

One thing is certain - one of us fails at sarcasm. I'm not certain if it is you or me, but I suspect it is you.

Use self control?

Bah there's no fun in that.

Clocks and alarms are useless while gaming anyway. I'll set my cell phone alarm to let me know I have to leave for work. Yeah, works great as I ignore it and say, "Eh after it goes off again in 5 minutes I'll leave..."

Sometimes, the simple solutions work best.
The wife slapping you upside the head each night should prove a good alarm clock.
No $$ to spend on another monitor
No $$ to spend on a useless clock
You and your wife can begin to have quality Snug-Snug time
Win = Win!

So I don't play longer than I should? A simple program that will just say what time it is? This is for windows 7 if that makes any difference.

Thanks.

Play the game in windowed mode? And get an alarm clock widget?

Else like others have said - just setup an alarm clock, pager, cell phone that's not in plain site...

You have never played mousetrap have you?

When I play CS and TF2, most servers I'm on you can type "thetime" and it gives you the current time.

That'll be Sourcemod, and as I recall, it's the server's local time. So if you're in a different time zone....

groovy, thanks. Clock beside computer (or watch for that matter) doesn't work because you get too engrossed in game to look. Wife yelling/throwing things at me does work, but want something more reliable and less painful. I'll try the Steam.

If you're too engrossed to look, Steam's not going to help either. The clock is on the overlay, which you need to manually call up using shift+tab. Note, you need to be running the beta UI for the clock to even exist.

If you want it to be displayed all of the time, xfire puts a small clock overlay in the right corner of your screen, and it also puts a small fps display on the left side. You can configure the size and location of both of these. Once you install xfire, all of your games will most likely be automatically detected, and all you will have to do is run them, hit the default key of scroll lock + x, and press the config button in the bottom left corner to configure where what overlays you want and where you want them. All of the overlays that you select (you could have a video stream, web browser, etc) will be displayed all of the time, not just when you bring up the menu. Using this you can have the FPS and time constantly displayed on your screen so you can just look up at the top corners of your screen and easily see what they are.

Actually ATI Tray Tools does show time there is that option so if your on ATI you can use it. If your on nVidia then nothing I can do for you... thx
