What are, or have been, your ultimate time wasters? These would be non-multiplayer games you play for months or possibly years. For me, it's:

Video Games:

- Final Fantasy 1 for the NES
- Dragon Warrior 4 for the NES
- Star Control 2 for the 3DO
- Final Fantasy Tactics for the PSX

I played all of these games over and over again. Not exactly say they are the best RPGs in existance, just something appealed to me about them and I couldn't stop replaying them.


Computer Games:

- Rogue for the PC
- Loom for the Macintosh Classic
- Masters of Orion 2 for the PC

I didn't have as many time wasters for the PC because I played a lot of MMORPGs, which are indeed my biggest time wasters. However, some of the games here, especially MOO2, come pretty darn close.

Feel free to post your own!
