Most addictive game you have ever played...

[Joony]

Diablo 2 LOD and CS

 

[RIGorous1]

Civilization.... original, Civilization 2, call to power, test of time, call to power 2, Alpha Centuri, Civ 3 however not play the world because online play seems impossibly slow with turn based games.

Ah the memories... I think I'm going to play right now.

LoL Gemstone 3! Remember Modus Operandi? It was out around the same time on AOL and was the same kind of game. Man that game was so addicting.

Yeah I tried that too, but stuck with GS because I liked being a wizard or ranger. I also would once in awhile create a new AOL screen name, then make a new character and go around murdering younger players. Then when I was finished causing a ruckus in that game, I went into AOL chat rooms and used "Fate X" or "Hellraiser" or one of my other "1337 pr0gs" to punt people who annoyed me.

Ahh the good old AOL days of acting like a little douche...

Definately, the Blade Of Darkness. I played through it a least thrice. It's one of the few games I have, but definately I liked it the most.

Medal of honor.....

A Three-way tie: Quake CTF, One Must Fall 2096(or whatever year it was called), and Scorched Earth

You think Counter Strike was addictive? I'm STILL Playing the Day of Defeat Mod for Half-Life.

In Case Your Interested.

[Maleficus]

Subspace is without doubt the most addictive game in exsistence.

 

[SubZeroX]

[tweakmm]

either CS or Snood

 

[Maetryx]

Moria and it's descendant, Angband. It's been a freeware development for over 15 years. I started palying it in 1989. I've never solved it. It's a "graphical" dungeon, using ASCII characters to represent yourself (@), monsters (A = ant, y=yeek, j=jelly, o=orc...), townspeople (t).... etc.

Angband is based on Tolkein fiction, so you can choose to be a Hobbit, Elf, Half-Elf, Human, Dwarf, Half-Orc, Half-Troll, Dunadain (Westernesse), High Elf, Kobold or a Gnome. You can choose as a class (i.e. job) Warrior, Priest, Mage, Paladin, Ranger or Rogue.

The stats (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Wisdom, Intelligence and Charisma) are basically the same as AD&D with 18/100 being the highest possible.

There are MANY variants on Angband, each with a different theme. For example, ZANGBAND is based on Zelazney's Amber series instead of Tolkein.

I always return to this game. When I get tired of it, I stop playing, but it's always on my hard drive, or two clicks away from downloading the latest version. It will fit on a floppy disk to this day.

----------------------------------------------

As for modern games, I played the original Tribes for a long, long time. For a time, I played several hours a day. And I played at least on the weekends for, I don't know, at least a year and a half. I was mostly into the shifter_v1 mod. I was very active on alt.games.starsiege.tribes during that time.

At the moment, my addictions are GTAIII, and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. I have plenty of other games, but those are the ones that I consider addictive.

 

[blakeatwork]

Quake II and Diablo2, which is hands down, the most addictive, yet frustrating game I have ever played....

CS and Brood War.

 

[Syran]

Currently: Everquest... 61 Ranger, still addicted
Previously: Muds (Lost Realms was my favorite)

And one can never forget Tetris, great for downtime 🙂

 

[LAUST]

Real Pinball machines, the one's without all the plastic junk toys all over it.

 

[Dudd]

Deus Ex for me. For the week or two that I played it, it was pretty much all that I thought about. Good thing multiplayer sucked, or I might have never moved on.

Magic:The Gathering, now online as well.
