Despite all the bugs this game continues to be one of my favorites that has me hooked. Tons of hours and it has something that keeps me coming back. Here’s a top 3 list of those special games that had me from the start.

1. Gems of War (obviously)
2. Diabo 2
3. Phantasy Star Online (playing online with dial-up internet never felt so great)

Anyone care to list some games that stole tons of hours from you?

Your paltry lists of 3-5 games make me feel truly old. I could fill pages upon pages of games I’ve been ‘addicted’ to starting from the late 80’s Commodore 64 era. Admittedly most of them are RPGs which is my favourite genre of game. I’m currently sinking hours into Divinity Original Sin 2.

So am I! I’m having a great time in Divinity. The first (Original Sin, that is) was a blast all the way through, and this one is similarly enjoyable.

@moons I never realized your profile pic was a selfie! 😉

I too could fill pages with addictive games my first being Pitfall, but here are some favs:

1. Final Fantasy
2. Final Fantasy Tactics
3. Final Fantasy 7
4. Mortal Kombat 2
5. Fallout
6. Shadowrun (Genesis version)!!!
7. Saga Frontier (This game was brilliant but got very little love. The sequel was not as good imho. But if you can find this somewhere, do yourself a favor and play it!)

If I’m being truly honest I spent entirely too much time in my early teenage years learning every thing I can about relationships from Leisure Suit Larry!!

Needless to say, I continue to disappoint my wife on the regular!

Lmao 😂
