Phantasy Star online for the Gamecube

I have devoted so much of my pubescent life to that game back in the day, only I played it for Dreamcast. Years later, I picked up the Gamecube version and I never did get online, but split screen multiplayer was enough to fill the void.

You may not believe this but we had dialup modems in our dreamcasts and they worked perfectly fine with only the occasional glitch or lag. [/old]

Phantasy Star online for the Gamecube
between october 02 to october 06 I logged ~450 hours on my best character. I didn't get online until I'd say April 06 because we went from dial-up to high speed at the beginning of 06

OMG I must have racked up literally around 1500 hours between my Dreamcast, PC and Gamecube versions of PSO.

I used to play 4-player split screen on the Gamecube version. Pretty fun, so long as you had a big enough TV.

As Keet says,the connection was really good for dialup. But the bills weren't good, oh no... my mum was so angry the first month after I started playing it online.

As for my 'addiction' games, Under Defeat for the Dreamcast (which I played about an hour of yesterday) and Sega Rally (Revo) for the PC.

I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever get bored of Under Defeat.

The Smash Bros series. I'm playing a borrowed copy of Melee, and I don't plan on giving it back too soon.

 

[KiiWii]

pretty much any tower defense strategy game.

Lol, amen to that.

Well I played on a private server for the Cube and a private server for Blue Burst

Rome Total War and Medieval II Total War. Yeah, I got addicted to strategy games, and the summer before last, my friend and I were so into it that a day after a rough and frustrating battle with the Egyptians, we were still jabbering away about it.
Just one province more, I mutter, on my 4th hour playing as the Selucids, charging the Egyptians on the marshes of the Nile, just one more, and my Empire will be complete. Two hours passed, and I was still at it. For some reason, strategy games just click for me...

CounterStrike: Source.

 

[Strafe Mcgee]

Advance wars. Any of them. Finished the campaign? Do the advance campaign. Finished that? Play through all the war room levels. Finished them? Make some of your own. The game's got near infinite replayability.

Also more addictive than crack-laced pistachio nuts.

EVE. Been playing for over 2years & see no end on the horizon (damn Ambulation has me salevating)

Super Mario. 60something levels, each demand completion

Star Fox (N64). I used to play this for hours & hours. One of few games ive tried to get all the highscores/medals in

Crackdown. "Just...one more...agility orb". Thank goodness I only rented it or id prob still be playing it trying to find all those damn things.

 

[Erana]

FF1 and 2. The remakes for the GBA in particular.
I mean, seriously. You know a game is fun when you don't notice that you are at level 94...

I feel like a spineless little person for saying this, But WORLD OF WARCRAFT.. I mean, who cant put that down when they hit 70!!! Also, the original fable was hard to put down, that along with katamari, pac-man and gauntlet.
