The biggest 'time-vampire' of a game you've ever played

Pretty much all the Bioware games on my first playthrough. It's like watching a thirty hour plus movie. Hard to get up from.
Oddly, some games I really like aren't like this at all, though. L4D lends itself to one or two sessions in the evening, and really that's enough. Braid (my current game) is good for a puzzle or two at a time.

KoTOR2. About 200-300 hours, I can't really remember. I just have a habit of playing it through good and evil at least once a year. The first KoTOR I have maybe 50 hours less on that.
Also, Fallout 3, although I didn't really love it THAT much. Most of the time was spent looking for every single map marker in the game, because why the fuck not? That goddamn Mothership Zeta DLC probably added too much time, lol. When you play it on Very Hard there's some guys that JUST WON'T DIE.

Games such as IL2 Sturmovik, Rome Total War and the COD games have probably clocked up the most hours but i tend not to spend more than 3 hours playing on them at once. In my childhood, i would play AOE for five hours straight- but that was probably because children have more addictive personalitys.
I have minecraft, and i occasionally play it but i don't find it to be the digital crack that everyone makes it out to be. Which is strange because i am both creative and imaginative, so you would think i would be complete minecraft addict.

Overall it would most likely be Diablo 2. Like, woah. Give me my life back, etc.
Recently it's GT5, which is nice. At least I'm not hurting the computer people.

Demon's Souls sucked up a ton of my time... and I didn't realize how much time it was wasting... A very subtle time vampire indeed.
Dues Ex: Invisible War. I was trying to beat it with nothing but a tranq gun and didn't buy another game for four months. I had to have ripped about 100+ hours into that sucker. Eventually though I ran into mechs, spent entirely too much time trying to figure out a way to not have to fight them and then it came to a point of frustration and I just went with "talk to the rocket launcher Robbie...." Of course all of that energy spent on that game felt like it went by in an eyeblink....
My sister is trying to get through DX1 using nothing but the stun prod. I think she's up to the MJ12 helibase right now.mikev7.0 said:
The last game she played before that was Halo ODST
On Easy Difficulty
Persona 3. For whatever reason, I thought I wouldn't be able to beat the final boss without being at least at level 96, and anyone who's played that game should know how long it takes to level up sometimes. Turns out the final boss was only on level seventy-something, and I only needed to spam Armageddon to beat it.
Was helluva lot of fun, though.
Disgaea, particularly Etna Mode, stole a lot of my time, too.

Pokemon Crystal. So many hours....
Soon to be Hyperdimension Neptunia. I love saying that title.
