What Game Can Make You Lose All Track Of Time?


The windwaker had the biggest effect the day i got it i started playin at about 11 in the mornin and didnt come off till 8 in the evening
I got that effect too! Shortly followed a few days later by 'I can't be bothered to play this crappy game any more' effect ;) after Hyrule Castle part 2 :)

Games I play for a long time... well, any RPG, really - most recently Neverwinter Nights - and other than those, Tyrian did, as did the SCUMM adventures of yore.

Games, however, that make me *completely* lost track of time are rarer - Deus Ex, Anachronox, and Baldur's Gate 2... and possibly Arcanum being the only ones I can think of really. All the others I know I might play for a long time - but I do at least keep track of time during doing so.

Then I decided to get all the statues, the i got bored coz u could only carry 3 pics at a time and the statue maker was so far away

Final Fantasy VII and Alundra are my classic time killers, but I've just recently aquired House of the dead 2 and a lightgun, which has just whiled away alot of my time.
 
PS/ps2, final fantasy 7, jak2, gta vice city
PC Command and conquer red alert 2, black and white (one of my favourite games eva :wub: )
GC/N64 ocarina of time, majora's mask
Xbox ninja gaiden if it wasn't so hard that i get pissed off and sling the joypad at the wall swearing my head off :p
 
i play windwaker 72 hours straight
its my favorite game of all time

i finally beat it after a while
i thought the cell shading fit it perfectly
 
Mixed reactions to Windwalker eh? I really need to start playing on my cube more so I can finish Zelda Ocarina Of Time and Majoras Mask and finally try Windwalker!

Back on topic:

PC: Diablo
Diablo 2
Daggerfall (Edler Scrolls Part II)
Star Wars Galaxies
Baldurs Gate (the original one - with null modem and my cousin)

Xbox: Knights Of The Old Republic

PS1: Final Fantasy VII
Ultimate Doom

Snes: Zelda A Link To The Past
 
Oh yeah, on my old 100Mhz(Or some shit) PC I used to spend whole days playing Doom. Well the shareware WAD :lol: , I didnt know there was any other.


I had a dream that I stole a GC last night.
 
Diablo, Dungeon Keeper, bs1, bs2, full throtle.

Me missus played the Sims for 12 hours one day....

Sad!
that does seem to be a game that appeals to the ladies. The most annoying part is mys sister and her little friend don't even try and challenge themselves! They just cheat and try and make a family they know irl or something. :angry:
STUPID

I once cheated on the Sims and sadisticly surrounded the house with a swimming pool. Guest Sims like Pizza Delivery Guys or people who need to go to work would just swim forever until they died :p
 
PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER 3. i woke up at 8 30 and didnt stop until 1:20. good game

oh and halo. i played that game for too long (borrowed from a friend). the multi player and single player is so much better than unreal 2004
 
Pro Evo 3
Champ Manager 03/04
Project Gotham Racing
Top Spin Tennis
Counter Strike
Starquake
Armalyte
Impossible Mission
Dungeon Master

All top games and i've lost many hours playing these ones, thanks to the GP32 can play the oldies again now without booting up my pc (I wish I could get impossible mission to work on Frodo) But I think I've lost the most time on Dungeon Master, I cant remember how many times i've replayed that.
 
each and every final fantasy game :), except for the first 4 ^^

other than that GTA: Vice City, Frequency, Sonic Adventure 2
 
My little bro bought this game Metal Arms: Glitch in the system, hes had for about a week and i found out he had yesterday so i started a game up on it and ive barely stopped playin since i love its amazing, the vehicles the weapons, the tether gun which allows u to control enemies (especially satisfying controlling a huge titan robot), anyway enough rambling has anyone else got or played this game i know its on xbox aswell as the cube.
But in answer to the question of this topic this game definately does make me lose track of time.
 
Wonder boy 3 Dragons trap (SMS)
Final Fantasy VII (PC and PSX), Started playig on the psx (the only reason i brought a PSX) and played for over 40+ in-game hours (about 2 weeks real time). I found out that it was available for the PC, So i sold the psx and bought FF7 for the PC and started all over again. One day me PC went tits up, So i backed up all my important stuff and reformated etc. But i forgot to backup my FF7 save game files (FU*K!), Never played it since, Can`t be arsed to start all over again (too gutted).
Super Metroid (SNES)
Baldurs Gate (PC)
Skies of Arcadia (DC)
Zelda Links past/awakening (SNES)

Trooper
 
Wacky races. OMFG me and a mate played this for 14 hrs straight...we were addicted.

Recently Shenmue has taken my soul, for some reason I've developed the patience for it.
