i am sort of addicted to freelancer and morrowind. but my devotion has
decreased due to technical problems with my pc. that damn machine has
slowed down for some unknown reasons, so i will have to reinstall the whole
system and maybe buy a new graphic-card in order to enjoy my "sweethearts"
again to the fullest! :sneaky:

i forgot to mention a few games on playstation which kept me amazed for
quite awhile back then:

silent hill, final fantasy 7 and metal gear solid.

especially the first one, silent hill, was very consuming. i used to play it with
a friend of mine who was living in a flat together with some other guys. the
two of us were regularly lying on the floor in front of the television and had
all the lights dimmed down while playing SH. often, some visiting pals came
in, wondering about the strange atmosphere and asking about what we're playing -
but they seldomly received an answer. we were that concentrated of what's
going on on the screen that we've totally lost our awareness of the surroundings.
we didn't react or stopped playing until our other friends teared open the window
blinds in order to let sunlight in because the became a little pissed off from sitting
in darkness the whole day watching us killing strange monsters and stuff...

That's nice game. Thinking to get newer one for PS2, but my wife don't like me play it, as it will freak her out. :D

Not a multiplayer game but, the legend of zelda: ocarina of time. :D

Okay, for non-multiplayeer, Final Fantasy 7 takes the cake. Just thinking about all of the repetitious leveling up gives me a headache now :crazy:

Who takes the time to morph things into Power Sources anyway? I mean, c'mon...

Silent Hill :drool: .... another one of my all time favs. Love the dep story. And the screwed up monsters. It is sooo detailed!.

<SPOILERS>

For example, Silent Hill 2. The monsters were all images of James evil doing, killing his wife (A mercy killing cause she was terrably sick). The first m,onsters that walk around and make the shrick noise reprosent a woman in a straite jacket, Mary (his wife) was in a hospital. Pyramid Head reprasents James reacting the murdur James did (thats why he always kill Maria.) He is James's executionar. The doorman monster is part of Angela's "punishment". Her father sexualy abused her. If you look closely the doorman is 2 people on top of each other uhh wiggling (can't find the word)? Can't remeber the other things cause I havn't played this game in such along time... It was fun discussing these in Silent Hill Forums.

Same here. I'd go home from school on my lunch break just to feed my addiction.


I was addicted to Ages of Empires and i've been addicted to Counter Strike since i first started playing it.

Sure have, but I'm starting to pick up the warning signals, like when all I see when I close my eyes are screenshots of that particular game and when I feign sickness to cancel plans friends because I simply CANNOT STOP PLAYING
