I hang my head in shame when I see how hard everyone fails ITT. Really, did all of you think I was serious?

Please...

Baldur's Gate did that for me.
I freaking love that game.
I never relised why that game is so popular. All i've played is a GBA version which i did not like much. Why is it so good?
No no no, don't touch any Baldur's Gate that isn't on the PC.
The PC version is the game to play. A tactical RPG with a phenomenal story. The Baldur's GAte Saga (On the PC, remember) is, to me, the best RPG series ever, and the best games I've played. Ever since I bought it in '97, it has always been installed on my computer. If I got a new computer? It's the first thing installed. Always.
Great games, fantastic RPGs. That's how my love for Bioware came about.

If Bioware are able to create this level of addiction in an offline single player RPG, then what's gonna happen when The Old Republic goes live??!!
The end of the world, and it will be awsome!

Oblivion had a similar effect on me, if I wasn't working or sleeping, I was playing it. It literally sucked everything out of my life that I could get out of doing.
In the end it only got 120 hours of my life, so it wasn't that bad but those few weeks, wow.

I am currently wondering just how long I can go on 3-4 hours of sleep a day. (Now, please keep in mind that I'm a feeble old lady and not a full-of-energy young-un like most of you folks.)

it pisses me off when people don't just answer the question! the guy didn't ask for your advice, so don't give him any!

OT: this almost happened to a friend of mine. but he was able to finish the game in just over a week, so the dammage wasn't too bad.

It's good you end with should we take you seriously, and you state no.

Or else I'd tell you, it's not the game, just your personality.

I played Guild Wars a lot and I skipped a class or too to play it :x

EDIT: Before you post, ask your self; Is this guy serious? Should I take this seriously?

No, no you should not.
Darn you, I was warming up my cold, lifeless heart, and now all that effort, wasted!

No, I am not joking. I blame this game and this game ALONE for ruining my life.

Let me explain. I am/was very happy with myself, I have a great girlfriend, good grades and I'm in shape. Everything was going fine, BUT THEN! Dragon Age: Origins came as a bomb into my life killing every thing close to a social life with in a 10 mile radius.

I just can't stop playing it, it's ridiculous. So right now I'm hoping that I will be able to stay away from the game long enough for my girlfriend and grades to recover.

So, have anyone else had a similar experience with this game? Or any other game for that matter.
Actually, sort of. Dragon Age was one of those games that had me playing it effectively non-stop for about 2 weeks before I decided I needed to stop myself. I'm afraid to play it now for fear of re-addicting myself.

240 hours for me in fallout :(
It's OK, I understand your plight.

I played Oblivion last summer like it was my job. Fallout is my next victim. Or, better yet, I'm my own victim.
