Most ridiculously adictive games you've ever played... especially stupid ones! Pages PREV 1 2 3 NEXT | |
Earth Defense Force 2017. There's just something about killing giant bugs with rocket launchers and sentry turrets that never fails to entertain. Too bad Insect Armageddon didn't capture the mystique nearly as well. | |
A bunch of Sega ga
Is that game related in anyway to Eco the dolphin on Sega? Might have been Super Nintendo actually... | |
A little game called Heroes of Might and Magic III. Half an hour, 12 hours hours, time has no meaning with that game. If I were to play only one game for the rest of my life that would be it. | |
CoD, i know, i know, but the game is incredibly addictive and frustrating at the same time. | |
QWOP | |
Tetris, I dream about falling blocks in my sleep | |
Minesweeper. I just downloaded it for my phone, and spend at least an hour playing every night before I hit the hay. | |
Fallout 3 and New Vegas. there's so much to odo!! | |
The Sims, Plant vs Zombies and Civilization are probably some of the most addictive games ever! | |
Hear hear! It's the original one-more-turn-before-bed-oops-it's-4-a.m. monster. The civilization games have a similar reputation but honestly they don't even come close. | |
Disgaea. | |
Rock Band - Drums Unfortunately, no stupid ones in my list. Just games that were addictive at one time or another. | |
Fallout 3 and New Vegas, ANY monster hunter game, Katamari games, Minecraft/Terarria. I was writing a quick paragraph to describe why I play so much monster hunter (more than 2000 hours logged on MHP2G), when I realized it had turned into a full-out rant. If you're interested on my opinions on the best game ever made, check it out. Fellow fans, make yourselves heard! | |
Puzzle Quest | |
Any main Pokemon game. | |
Towns. I start that game, and the next thing I know, its tomorrow. | |
Captive (By Tony Crowther), back in the early 90's, on the Atari ST. It was this huge, corridor/dungeon crawler, like Dungeon Master or the new Legend of Grimrock. Now DungeonMaster was cool, but Captive was more sci-fi - rather than finding armour, you'd buy yourself some new legs for your droids, instead of bows and crossbows, there was handguns, machine guns, rocket launchers and even lightsabres instead of swords. It was a very technical and challenging game, but addictive as hell. I must have clocked up about 1000 hours on that game, it really had no end - apparantly it would take 50 years of continuous play to get through every level. Grimrock is fairly addictive but pretty difficult, been playing that recently, and I hope that we see more games like it, RPG games that are more tactical, and less about mindless slashing. I spent a lot of time on Harvest Moon on the Gamecube as well, that's a pretty unique game, really feels like your part of a little community. | |
Fallout 3 and New Vegas had me hooked for a good long time, I rinsed through all the DLC too. In a similar vein I loved Oblivion, although Skyrim never seemed to draw me in in the same way. Most recently though I played Deus Ex: Human Revolution and I just couldn't put it down until I'd finished! I love the original and while the second wasn't quite as good, it was still so addictive and satisfying :) | |
Oblivion and now Morrowind :/. Oblivion was great because it was one of the first games I played on the 360 and since I missed the XBOX/PS2 generation and I had no IDEA these kind of games could be possible. It was a summer where my dad left for 1 month in August for his work, so my brother and I were living alone ^^. Sometimes i played 2 days in a row. Hygiene was low :p. It was funny because my brother had to get up at 4 a.m sometimes for his work and I ended up waking him up ^^. And 2 weeks ago i thought i'd give Morrowind a chance, modded of course... I fear for my exams in june now. | |
I still play Phage Wars by Armor Games and have been for over a year, very addictive. | |
Fallout 3 and New Vegas here aswell I just got sucked back New Vegas again | |
Dwarf Fortress is just about the most addictive game i've ever played. Seriously. I might not play it for weeks at a time but when i do it's for 3-4 12 hour stints each day. | |
Got to try this and it is very fun, would be even better if it is an android app. Reviewing! | |
Monster Hunter Freedom series for PSP. This game. My third period Geometry class my junior year of highschool consisted of sleeping and ADHOC Monster Hunter with a friend mid-class. Kill monsters, get mats, get gear! Torchlight. I must've dumped at least 50 hours into that game the first week I had it. Felt like a more cartoony version of Diablo 2. Diablo 2. There went my home/social life circa highschool. 'Nuff said. | |
Torchlight. I've spent probably 15 hours on it in the last 3 days alone, and since I work full time that's a big deal. WoW. I paid way too much money and heaven knows how much time on that stupid skinner machine, until I realized that the "fun" of following other people's instructions to the letter in order to fight over raid loot was over rated. In two weeks I just know that Diablo 3 is going to be added to this list. | |
League of legends has been eating my life since before it was released. They give me a game with reasonably deep mechanics, teamplay and a little number that tells me how much I'm improving... It's too much must... make... little number bigger in tiny increments gaaaahh! | |
For me it was Minecraft and any Civilization game (I started with Civ 3). | |
I got stupid addicted to Just Cause 2. And Dead Island is strangely addicting...and it's not even good! | |
I suppose Just Cause 2 is, but the novelty has since worn off. | |
Civilization 5 looks good: any one know if I can save the game on the fly? What can anyone tell me about saving the game? In a life like mine, I never know if I'm going to have much time at a whack. Could be 2 hours. Could be 5 minutes (which I use as well as possible.). | |
Just Cause 2, i never finished the storyline, but i continue to return just to mess around on Panau. And it's still my Spider-Man 2 of this console generation, endless joy. | |
Mount & Blade: Warband by miles. Pre-Warband, Mount & Blade took up a stupid amount of my time (over 20 hours, which is a hell of an achievement considering I usually play for 10 hours per game on average). Warband then came along and stole my sleep while it was at it. During summer holidays, it was pretty common I'd start playing Mount & Blade: Warband at some point between 11pm and 1am and stop as I notice the sun rise. It was stupidly addictive and had the large problem of "just a little more". "Let me just get to town. Let me just get some equipment. Let me just make a bit of money and get off". I'd quickly forget that I was meant to be off long ago as I'm going through these motions. Not to mention, the mods you could install. I played a bit of 1886, a Western mod. | |
Oh, yeah. Was a typo. It is Ecco the Dolphin, the Sega game. Found it on steam and couldn't resist. | |
Diablo 2 had me hooked pretty bad, worst part it was multiple times. First I would quit because I got sick of it, then a bunch of my friends want to play again and then I am hooked again, eventually quits, and then many years later another group of friends wanted to play again since a lot of stuff like massive updates to a lot of the old items, godly runewords, torches and chaos tristram was made since then and people want to try it so there I was again. And many months later after the summer ladder ended everyone including me quit again. And now D3 is coming out in 2 weeks, I think I'm screwed. :p | |
