I tend to have an MMO at any given point of time that can take over whenever I hit a lull in more single player games, though I switch MMOs pretty regularly too. However, for probably more years than is reasonable, every few months I seem to fall into a period of dwarf fortress obsession where I play it solidly for a few weeks at least almost nonstop and then manage to get the needle out of my arm for a while at least.

Right now me and my buddy Have really gotten into Path of Exile. It's a really good D2 clone almost what D3 Should have been. Also mine craft and Fallout: New Vegas got to love hardcore mode.

Hitman: Blood Money is one. Left 4 Dead 2 is another. Both have been on my various hard drives for years.

I've been a big fan of Assassin's Creed from the very beginning, and I'm also insanely good at multiplayer (its the only game im good at as well). It usually goes that if i want to play, i'll play anything. But when i want to win, its Assassin's Creed every time.

Everybody's Golf for the Playstation Vita.

I've been playing it every day for almost a year now, with no signs of stopping any time soon.

I just absolutely love the gameplay, nothing else compares,
also
Halo 1,2,3,4,odst and reach singleplayer and multiplayer.
I have such a big steam backlog that it isn't a problem (that is truly first world problems, having too many games to play, and not knowing where to start)

Well, it used to be halo 2. But, unfortunately it is no more. I played a fair bit of halo 3, and it was good, but it wasn't quite the same. I had a lot of problems with halo:reach, and don't even get me started on halo 4. So, the last time my xbox live subscription was up for renewal, I just let it go. Basically, leaving me without a go-to-game.

Generally, I'll play though a game, then just move onto the next one. Now and then, I'll go back to something from my childhood, like spyro, or crash bandicoot, but I rarely replay a more recent game. It would have to have been something I really enjoyed.

Depends what I am in the mood for. If I just want to kill a few minutes it is Risk on the PC. I don't have a console so all my games are PC based. If I want a good RTS its either any of the Warhammer 40k Dawn of War series, Master of Orion 2 ,Star Wars Empire at War or Star Wars Rebellion. I love Rebellion just because I love to have a huge fleet to fleet battle in the Star Wars universe. I am just getting into RPG type games in the last year or so. So I am switching between Borderlands 2 and the Mass Effect series a bit. I am not really into sports, fighting or Action games all that much. Left for dead 1 and 2 for a shooter or multiplayer game. I love RTS the most so they make up the bulk of what I play.

My go-to game is Kingdom Hearts II. It's one of my favourite games and just something I can easily and happily while away the hours on when I feel like playing a game but don't know what to play. The Pokemon games, especially the original Red/Blue versions, as well as HeartGold and SoulSiver are those kind of games for me as well when I'm on the move, along with Final Fantasy: Dissidia [duodecim] if I have my PSP.

On the PC, it's "Sid Meier's Pirates!" because it's just so simple yet addictive. And "Diablo II" for pretty much the same reason.

On the console, I like the old "Prince of Persia: Sands of Time" because of the fluid gameplay and lush, storybook setting. I usually wind up playing that at least once a year.

Back in the day Jedi Academy multiplayer MBII mod was my go to. Now days my go to game is Zombie Panic Source. Both were for the same reason the game was great and so was the community.

Team Fortress 2. I know no other game that can allow you to dominate a server by shooting piss at people.

My current go to game that I play when i'm bored is Civ V, I got back into this game again and keep telling myself just one more turn. Then I realize its midnight.

some older games I have gone back to recently are
Startopia
Earth 2150: The Moon Project (amazed this still works on a modern pc)
Sid Miers Alpha Centuari (and alien crossfire the rare expansion)
Xcom (the new one)

That one title which you most commonly tend to put on whenever you feel like playing a game.

Way back a couple of generations ago it was Jedi Academy multiplayer (who else remembers those days?).
I certainly do! it was always jedi accademy, that or Starwars battlefront.

However even back then I devoted more time to pokemon and I still do now its definitely my go to game.
