Most Addicting Game Ever?
« on: January 10, 2001, 08:19:51 AM »
What do you think the most addicting game ever is & on which console?

In 1985 I might have said Atari\'s Pitfall.  I mean, jumping across those gator\'s heads umpteen million times was a blast.

But most recently I would say Rogue Spear/Urban Ops for the PC.  In fact, I never played single player 10 months.  I played all  multiplayer online.  The fact that you can trash talk before, during & after the game is a big plus.  There is nothing sweeter than getting 5 kills on \'The Met\' and then taunting the other team after the game.  And just when you think you\'re getting bored, MODS!!!

Currently though Madden is taking up most of my time.  You know when my wife is talking about my hands and says "it\'s cause you got them big \'ol paws on ya" when you know I\'ve been playing to much Madden round the house.

Right now its Final Fantasy IX...

But from before..I think it would have to be Zelda on the NES.   I just kept playing that game for days, months, hours and hours on end....  Ohhh those were the days.

When all we had was some bread and a little bit moldy milk... and a Nintendo....with Zelda...

It was the first game I ever bought for any system...  I still have it today...Life is great

I feel a little sad, but these days it\'s hard for any game to keep me interested for long. But I guess Counter Strike is one of the games I\'ve been playing most lately.

I\'ve also played games like Driver and Syphon Filter quite a lot on the PSX.

Singleplayer - probably Frontier (one of the Elite games) keep me coming back to it for around a whole year, although Ive many classics its probably up top, alongside Hired Guns etal (most of you probably wont know these, non-console background)

Multiplayer - Without doubt the quake series of games, although its not entirely down to the game but rather the mini-culture and society it builds around it Ive continued to play Q2,Q3A and some QW over the last 3 years or so.

For me Championship Manager 99/00 goes beyond the realm of addiction into obsession - an insanely immersive game.

Other notables:
ISS Pro Evolution/MLS GameNight - PSX
Kick Off 2 - Atari ST
Player Manager - Atari ST
Super Tennis - SNES
Ikari Warriors - Amstrad
Gauntlet - Amstrad

The Most atticted game i\'ve ever played is... ta da! Lemmings and Oh No! More Lemmings for Playstation and PC ( I own both versions )... they\'re ever-green classics... I can always come back to them and they\'re as addictive and good...

hmmm... I was atticted to FFVII and VIII while back and I have been really addicted to Quake, Doom, Doom II and Duke 3d. So mostly FPS\'s... now I\'m quite addicted to Timesplitters; I love the fast gameplay...

Oh and Monkey Island serie kept me up at nights... :D

FFVII probably. I\'m quite worried about myself. I\'ve spent almost a total of 850 hours with the game. Others don\'t get even close... :p Well perhaps Tekken 3... and soon TTT. I\'m getting my daily dose of at least an hour a day, yummy :)

It may sound a bit cliché, but for me that\'s final fantasy 7 too, I\'m still playing it, i already played it out 5 times. When you\'re playing this, you just can\'t stop, I sometimes play this game for over 10 hours at once.
Maybe soul calibur is an option too, cause there is no fighting game I have played longer than this one

No way!!! Wow... that\'s much! I\'ve played only about 60 hours!!! but 850?!?! Speaking the truth are you? :)

Hmmm.. I could call you a FFVII freak, Hawke :)

Like puzzle-games? Get Lemmings... definetely the best puzzle game there is or ever will be... my first and last favourite game...
