This doesn't include SL since it isn't technically a game.

The most addictive game I've played has to be Arcanum Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura.

The first time I played it was for fourteen hours straight. The next day I played it for 16 hours straight. Did I mention that it was on my friend's computer and that I didn't leave his apartment? Upon returning home, my girlfriend made fun of me for playing it- saying I was turning into some kind of Final Fantasy dork. That was before she actually played it.

Then we both played it for almost two months.

We didn't even have jobs. It was THAT bad.

Civ 2 and Total Annihilation probably consumed more of my time than any other games.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory

When it comes down to it, it's just another FPS, but something keeps making me go back for more.

For me it's both Battlefield 2 and either Guild Wars or Half-Life 2. For my Fiance, it's Neopets

After trying the Call Of Duty 2 demo, the minute I get the game it'll be the new addiction.
My fiance got me into playing Yugioh for the past year. Just when I thought I got over the addiction Pen & Paper RPGs and collecting comic books.... *sigh*

I dont play PC games - newer have - prob will newer do.. .

As I dont feel that SL are a ”game” for me - its an extension to my IRL life...

BUT IRL I can play - Fia med knuff (http://sv.wikibooks.org/wiki/Fia_med_knuff) as I love to be mean in games (Not SL)..or sometimes that old one Monopol...

What about strip poker LOL.... *wicked smile* - Dont mention it to my GF please...
