I see I'm not the only one. I need at least 400 more levels of grinding until I get Laharl. The wait is killing me. >.>Sober Thal said:
OT: Persona 4 - 128 hours in, still have another 40 to go to finish the second playthrough.
TF2 - Too much fun online. (78 hours as of now)
Obligatory Skyrim - Don't know how many hours, but it's starting to turn into a grind.
Pokemon: Silver - Found it for my color not too long ago. Started playing it again. Sweet memories...

Think about it, k? :3
1. Gears of War 3(150+ hours)
2. Fallout: New Vegas(120+ hours)
3. Halo Wars(50+ hours)
4. Dead Space 2(40+ hours)
5. DOOM II(20+ hours)
Gears of War 3 is probably one of my all-time favorites.
I bought the ultimate edition of New Vegas, and I have lots of fun with it.
Halo Wars is great with friends, and I have 5-6 friends to play it with.
I just bought Dead Space 2 after renting it once. Totally worth it.
I got the sudden urge to plow through DOOM II on ultra-violence one day, and I'm almost there.

I'm glad to see someone played (and hopefully enjoyed) Tales of the Abyss as much as I did. Also, just curious, but which did you play first, the PS2 version, or the 3DS version? Anyways, OT:NEDM said:
1. Disgaea 4(Beat the game back in February, but am just recently playing the post game)
2. Tales of Graces F(On and of playing, but love it when I do play it)
3. Skull Girls(Only picked it up because an artist I like did art for the game, and it was actually pretty challenging and I sunk a lot of time into it)
4. Sonic Adventure (Dreamcast version downloaded from PSN)(Also, it's my favorite Sonic game of all time so far, still haven't tried Generations yet)
5. Persona 3 FES/Journey (I've spent roughly the same amount of time on both)
wow lots of ppl inc myself really playing skyrim. 2012 year of the dovakin. Just shows you how mediocre games this year have been because even though skyrim is fun, it drags on a bit at the later levels.
1. Call of Duty 4 - will remain my most played game until a better shooter is released (lol yeah right) or they shut down the servers on 360.
2. Starcraft 2 - Nexus Wars!
3. Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
4. World of Warcraft - Don't play that much anymore, but it's still the best MMO out there, sadly.
5. SWTOR - No longer play this game, but for the first part of the year I was playing 6+ hours a day. It was a ton of fun until I hit level cap and realized there literally was no end-game.
Also played a lot: Diablo 3, Mass Effect 3, Modern Warfare 2

1. Team Fortress 2 - This is the game I just play. Got time to kill, play TF2. At a friends playing games, TF2.
2. Binding of Isaac - My go-to when I've had enough TF2. That said, this year, I've probably played them both about the same.
3. Saint's Row 3 - I lovelovelove this game. I'm close to my second 100% file, this one on the hardest difficulty.
4. Oblivion - Played it forever when it was new, picked it up cheap on Steam not that long ago and immediately poured about a day and a half of playtime into it over a month.
5. Duels of the Planeswalkers - Huuuuge magic geek, and I find these close enough to paper magic to be fun for me.

Got through the first page and wondered where the MMO guys were. Found a few on this page though.
1) SWTOR First MMO I've played since I was into EVE a few years back, but it got me for 6 months or so. Recently let my subby slide though, might play againif when it goes FTP.
2) Rock Band 3, have something of an addiction to the drums. Rock Band has rated in my top 5 games played for like 5 years now.
3) Diablo 3
4 and 5... tossup between Skyrim and ME3. Skyrim I played a shitload of LAST year, not really this year. Stopped playing it almost entirely once SWTOR released and only recently started playing it much again. Total, probably less than 15 hours into it in 2012.
ME3 I bought because I loved the first one and sort of liked the second one, figured hey why not. Made it less than halfway through before I stopped caring. I think it was the level design. Every level felt... TINY. The dialogue felt really cheap too. Dunno if I'm just doing the whole "meh, original was better fnah fnah hipster hipster" thing but I really got into the storyline of the first couple and just can't give two shits about the 3rd one.

1. Skyrim (Xbox 360, 120 hours)
2. Mass Effect 3(PS3, 3 playthroughs at 30 to 35 hours each.)
3. Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning (PS3, around 60 to 75 hours.)
4. Tales of the Abyss (3DS, around 45 to 50 hours.)
5. Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines (Started replaying it last week on my laptop.)

I'll bite.
1) Minecraft. What? I'm addicted to Tekkit. I keep starting from scratch and building machines en masse...
2) The Binding of Isaac (like 300 runs in... CAN'T...STOP...PLAYING....!) Also addicted to watching Northernlion play this. His commentary is pretty superb (youtube content producer)
3) EverQuest. Ever since it went F2P I've been reliving the days of my youth in this old school MMORPG. It's still fantastic.
4) Youtube. Wait, that's not a game... but it is sucking up most of my free time lately. There are too many entertaining channels now-a-days... Yogscast, Jesse Cox and Totalbiscuit, Tobuscus, CaptainSparkelz, Northernlion, Yrimir etc. The list goes on. If I don't get my daily 2 hours of YT, I don't function well.
5) Deus Ex (the original) I've been trying to get into this bloody hyped up the wall game. I recognize it has a decent story and a cool futuristic techno setting, and the controls remind me of System Shock 2 (one of my favorite games) but it plays like absolute garbage, and the game flat out lies to you at times. For example, the description for the Melee skill says you can take out "most enemies in 1-2 swings" well, I'm using the most powerful weapon I've found so far and with a Master in melee weapons, even the most basic enemies take at least 6 swings. Not very fun. Why did I pick melee you ask? Well... there's not enough ammo in the game! I know it's a stealthy game, but still! The gameplay is very lacking compared to SS2 imo, and I have found that even as a kid I just couldn't get into this game. The furthest I've gotten is where your brother *spoilers* (heh this game is ancient who am I kidding?) is in his hotel room and they have just activated his "kill switch" and you promptly get swarmed by like 8 enemies and you either fight through this horrible scenario or you 'die' and get locked in a jail cell with all your hard earned goodies taken away. Not fun
so I usually stop here. In fact I always stop here. The gameplay aint worth the tedium!
/rant ovar!

Skyrim - When I was younger I was never able to appreciate games like Diablo nor would I have been able to appreciate other dungeon crawlers or open world games.
So Skyrim is the first open world exploration dungeon crawler I have been able to commit myself to and truly enjoy and appreciate. The NPC?s are lifeless the narrative flat, but the world is really fun to discover and explore.
Yeah I tried Morrowind back in 04 when I was 16 but the combat at the time made it really hard for me to get into that game and again at the time I had no idea what kind of beast I was dealing with.
Oblivion...well bland repetitive Oblivion.
Mass Effect 3 - The multiplayer is just addicting and fun aaand all I can play of that game for now, and what can I say I feel like a bad ass playing as a Salarian.
Hitman: Blood Money - Still finding new ways to dispose of marks in that game and new fitting songs to use as background music for certain levels. And a swift head shot to a enemy NPC with a decked out Silver Baller always makes one feel like a complete bad ass.
Borderlands - Grew tired of having to resort to Halo Reach for my co-operative fix with a friend. Tried Left 4 Dead grew tired of that remarkably fast so out of desperation I picked this up and...yeah so far so good others seem to be enjoying it more than me but hey it's a game I can play with friends while being in the same room with them. That's good enough for me.
And I don't have a fifth, sorry.

Skyrim(Honestly gets boring as hell the second time)
