Games you just return to-

Persona 3, for sure. The game is pretty long on its own (and the FES expansion adds about thirty hours to the ~100 of the original), but there's so much to do and so many ways to do it. New things happen every time I pick it up!

... I sound like an ad.

KOTOR 1+2
Half Life 1+2
The Longest Journey.
Oblivion.
Neverwinter Nights 1+2
Peggle (what? )

Thems the biggies.

Mount and Blade.

Its just...so COOL!

Downloaded the demo of that on Steam but never actually played it. Worth a go then?

The original Neverwinter is REALLY cheap now. A friend bought a copy on Amazon recently for about £2 + postage.

Worth the money.

Mount and Blade is an AMAZING game...

IF you get the right mods for it.

Its like Oblivion and Morrowind and Fallout 3, in that way...

I just got the Brutality mod (which does nothing but add better sound effects and fifty times more blood), and then its fun.

OH!

And there is a new expansion pack coming out that's going to improve the graphics...AND ADD MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

winwinwinwinwinwinwinwin!

I'd better give it a go then.

Diablo II and Civ IV are my biggies.

Occasionally Stubbs The Zombie if I want a good laugh.

You know, this rarely happens to me. Once I've played through a game two, maybe three times, I'm done with it. No going back.


BUT, I did play two games for a very long time- Starcraft and Battlezone II.

Both are good times.

The Final Fantasy series for me. Yeah, pretty much all of them. They're basically comfort games to me and much like a favorite book, I love returning to the stories again and again. Tales of the Abyss is also a game I've replayed at least a few times.

I never finished FFXII - I got bored half way through and didn't pick it up again - I love 7, 8, and 9 though, and have played each more times than I care to remember.

For others, Baldur's Gate, definitely, and Dungeon Keeper II - dang I love it when my minions can't play marbles.

Halo 3!!!!!!!!!!!

A lot of people didn't like XII, but I think it's partly because of the development (they added Vaan and Penelo into the story very late; Basch was originally the main character) and partly the battle system (borrowed heavily from XI, which I played for a good two years or so). I really like it myself, though I thought the Gambit system did make it a little too easy. But then so does the Zodiac Spear hah.

I can't wait for XIII, the trailers just keep looking more and more awesome. Versus is looking a lot like VII though, which I wasn't overly fond of.

VIII is actually the first Final Fantasy I played so I'm rather heavily biased in my opinion of it. I even have a replica of Squall's Griever necklace that I wear. Yeah, I'm weird. >.> The Dissidia trailer with him fighting Sephiroth made me squee like a little girl, I admit it.

Star Control II (Downloaded for free at the Ur-Quan Masters site)

Best. Game. Ever.

Mario 3
Myst (There are still a couple Myst titles I've not had the pleasure to play...)
Anything Zelda related
SSX (the first one)

I remember Lords of the Realm 2, but I wouldn't say it's a game I replayed much.

However, I've replayed Far Cry, Half-Life 1/2/ep1/ep2, Fallout 1/2, PS:T, and Baldur's Gate 2.

I like soloing BG2 and NWN.

Rise of Legends / Rise of Nations.

Rise of Legends was 1/3rd awesome, 1/3rd pretty cool and 1/3 all right.

Rise of Nations was like what Age of Empires III SHOULD have been.

I've played games since the mid 90's and rarely played one twice except for the Civilization series.

Neverwinter Nights. I created a series of mods for it that are rogue-like so I pretty much just play my own mods.

Diablo II/Titan's Quest. I just recently went back to these because I'm looking forward to D3 and I had to get me some hack and slash fun in while I wait.

I constantly play the latest NCAA Football on Xbox, so I don't really ever 'go back' to it so much as I'm usually in the middle of a dynasty.

Moria. Yep, text-based Moria. Still holds up as far as I'm concerned.

Master of Magic. The best 4x strategy game I've ever played. Also sometimes pull out the Master of Orion II CD.

Everquest II. If it weren't for the graphics, I'd probably go back to Everquest.

Diablo II. I cannot WAIT for III.

Ooh, I'd forgotten that was coming out!!!!

*Happy dance*
