Fairly obvious question. Thought about it since I just started playing Serious Sam HD, and I'm using the quicksave key more often than my left mouse button. Great game, still.

So what game do you use the quicksave button the most?

Dragon Age: Origins. Unless you count the "Save State" feature on ROM emulators as a Quicksave.

Well, its not "quicksave" on the Xbox. But I have 20,000+ on the manual save counter on Oblivion. No, that does not count autosaves. It used to freeze like crazy, before I got online to get the patch, so I'd built up a HUGE save count.

Not really a quicksave, per se, but..
Raidy Lightning Warriors.

Walking through the wrong door will get you killed. In that game all doors are identical, so the only way to tell if it is the wrong door, is to walk through it.
Saving before opening any door, at all, is a must.

Either Neverwinter Nights 2 or Dragon Age: Origins. There's nothing more annoying than beating a tough enemy, going "Oh well, that had to be the las... ARGH!" Untimely death. Oh, the frustration I suffered at those two games for that...

Half life 2. I totally spammed quicksave. I got sick of dying and having to repeat the last 5 minutes of play.

Oblivion because thats one of the only games I've played that had quicksave.

It has an autosave, though I almost got stuck because I was entering and exiting a building during a fight and kept dying there for a while until I got a lucky block and was able to run to get help from different towns people. I think the mission would have been much more difficult without their help.

Far Cry 2.

The consoles version was a hell of a lot more difficult because it didn't have quicksave.
I also just started playing Far Cry 2, hadn't noticed the quicksave button if you didn't tell me :p

Oh that sucks.

The damn auto save almost corrupted one of my save files.

I would have been sooooo pissed.

Thief deadly shadows and Condemned criminal origins. In theif, I spammed that baby till the cows came home, especially on the Abysmal Gale and Shalebridge Cradle.

I'm sure the internet cares what I have to say.

Fallout 3. I use quicksave on these occasions:

Before entering a door
After picking a lock
After each encounter, no matter how small
Before quest-related dialog options (then make a proper save on another file after the quick load)
After Fast-Travelling.

Basically every 5 minutes.

Morrowind. You can only fall screaming to your death through the floor so many times before quicksaving every couple of steps becomes compulsive.
