Great addicting games.
Games are like an addiction to me. I've been gaming as early as 3 years old and had been grounded for playing too much of it. Through out the years, ive played tons of video games but not all of them gave me the real satisfaction, the fun and amusement. I want to know what are the games that you guys find to be the most enjoyable, the one that really worth all the money and time for it. A game that is so good,you literally couldnt put the controller down until you've finish the game and collect all the items and such. For me, contra and batman comes to mind. I was 5 when i played this game and was able to beat it and repeat it again for numerous time. Metroid and zelda games are also up there for me. I'm currently playing the prime series and man am i not dissapointed. Current gen games that are fit to my criteria are infamous, mario galaxy and the god of war series. Other games that i really enjoy playing are final fantasy tactics, etrian odyssey, the first resident evil, symphony of the night, megaman series, and picross. These are games that i could play on and on without bored. So, tell me what yours are.

I don't play alot of RPGs but I got my own copy of Earthbound and have sunk about 10 hours in last week alone. I don't really get addicted to RPGs as much as I have a on again off again relationship with them lol.

Shining Force in the Game Gear. For the NES I enjoy Contra, Metal Gear, Panic Restaurant, and Little Samson. As for current gen stuff, very little captures my attention. In the past year or so I'd say Resident Evil 5, Skyrim, and Castle Crashers took up most of my 360 game time.
Resident Evil 5 didn't hook me in like previous RE games. I have high hopes for RE6 this fall though.

Chaosforge.org
The guy there has done rogue-likes of Doom, Aliens, Diablo, and a couple others.
DoomRL is his flagship project, though, and the latest release has upgraded to being tile-based.
It's wild.
Demon's Souls and Dark Souls. Never had I been so addicted to a game. With Demon's Souls, I got beat so hard at first.. but for some reason, instead of usually turning off the system and trying the game later as a rest, I kept playing. I don't know what drove me to keep playing or why it was so addictive.. but I did. Demon's Souls was the first game on a console to get over 500 hours out of me. =[
battle kid had me hooked
batman
jackal
1943
guardian legend
zelda 2
etc etc etc
snes
rpgs (not so much anymore since i played through almost all of them at least twice lol)
LTTP
super metroid
shooters
MMX
etcetc
Goldeneye (speed running)
any of these games always will and always have held my attention (mostly)

YES!! That's what I came into this thread to talk about. I haven't had the pleasure of playing Demon's Souls, but I got Dark Souls for the X360 and it was the most immersive experience I've had in AGES. Spectacular game.

one word sums up game addiction.... Diablo.....
Very true in the case of Diablo II. I'm bored of it now, but I played it religiously for 5 or 6 years. CSS is another culprit, as well as older games like ALttP and Earthbound.
At the moment however, Oblivion has pulled me back in. I seem to be in the minority that I still much prefer it over Skyrim, especially when mods come into play.
uncharted 1-2..i assume 3 as well i have not played that one yet
Both batman games as well...even thou i have not played the second one yet??

Damn you, Tetris! Its been over 20 years and I still cant quit.
This!
I think Tetris is one of the most addicting games. So simple, but so good!

I don't see the appeal to that game, I spent $20 bucks on Fallout 3 and regretted every penny of it.
If we're talking about addicting in a worse sense, I'd say any Call of Duty game. I play them because I feel compelled to play them, but I don't think I have fun playing them anymore. It's more of a "go-through-the-guns-and-prestige" kind of thing.
