Most addictive game you've played

Champ Manager / Football Manager were terrible for addiction. Days on end lost!

Civilization too - wow, that thing makes time fly. I'm hooked on it again now.

Counterstrike

This too.

Discovered at Uni on a massive LAN (all the halls of residence were attached to the Uni ethernet network) - so we always had games running, 24/7 with no latency - which was unheard of back then in the days of shitty dialup

Played hour after hour from back in the beta days.
Still occasionally dip back in - but nobody plays any maps other than Dust and Dust2, which is boring a fuck

Just bought counterstrike global offensive on steam. Never played a counterstrike in my life and I can't understand why you cant go prone or aim down the sight :lol:

Looks good but its a bit dated!
 
Rainbow 6 Vegas, first Xbox 360 online experience, had played online on the PC, but all my mates had 360s, poured hours and hours into it. Calypso Casino>
 
Delta Force 2 was the first game that really took me over. At the time it was sort of the alternative Counter Strike. Booting up and battling other clans all through a 56k modem including player-made maps, class.

I was voted as one of the best 20 players of all time. Luckily the addiction was always 'controlled' and never took over too much, so don't see it as time wasted. Certainly was told I should play more by fellow players who thought I could be better but never gave in thankfully.
 
Also have to agree with this. I'll have put a silly amount into both of these two as well! I remember first getting Fallout 3 and tried starting it a couple times and I just really couldn't get into it, tried one more time about 6 months later and couldn't get off the thing. Mind, I f***ing hated that DLC for the winter part to get the Winterized Armour and stealth armour, must have done it about 6/7 times :lol:

This for me too, I had giving up on it until one day when i was bored decided to give it one final go and then couldn't get off it!

I was addicted to Black Ops, I didn't get COD4 when it first came out and MW2 was my first game so I don't think rate COD4 as high as most others, BLOPS is the best COD imo.

Totally agree. They steadily got worse. Seeing as though they're bringing remastered games back they should release a next gen cod4/mw2 hd game with all the dlc etc. Would sell a shitload of copies for them, and pure bliss for us!
If they re released MW2 but took the shite out I'd buy that.

My mate used to be hugely into FM. He used to don a suit jacket if he made the FA Cup final.
His flatmate was the same - my mate heard him chuntering on to himself in his room, opened the door and found him wearing a full suit conducting a press conference.
