For me, counter-strike no doubt. Never spent so much time total and playing straight than this wonderful mod.

The most addictive game I've ever played is an online RPG text-only game called Gemstone III. Back in high school, I used to play for hours. It was so much fun. I met some cool people and later became friends in real life. Thinking about it, perhaps I should go back. I'm bored with Diablo II already.

I played a game that sounds similar to that when I was in high school. It was called Ishar. By far the most addicting game I've ever played in my life. It too was all text based...the only thing you needed to play was a telnet program. Luckily, after a year and a half, I finally managed to kick the "habit"...but I still remember waking up 2 hours before school to try to get a headstart on everyone else or snag that eq that everyone was looking for at the time.

another very addicting game was the original dragon warrior for the nes. i remember staying up until 2 or 3 am on a friday or saturday night (that was late when you were 10) lying on the living room floor in front of the spread-out maps. ah, those were the days.

I thought I was the only person in the world who loved Worms. Man, that was some fun gaming time. The little noises they made, their little sayings. Makes me crack up just thinking about it now.

Oh man Ogre Battle is a great classic for nes. I think I spent a lot of time playing duck hunt though for some reason.
