in chronological order:

Roller Coaster Tycoon
Age of Empires 2
Tony Hawk's Underground
Runescape
World of Warcraft
Counter Strike: Source

but I pretty much stopped playing video games altogether towards the end of my sophomore year of high school. I try to play WoW occasionally now, but it doesn't really keep me entertained for more than a few weeks of playing here and there.

Same here, except I never got through the fucking legion since I hated how they all had those stupid voices and looked so lame, I never got through the legion playthrough. Contrary to popular belief, that game was so much better than Fallout 3, by far.

Runescape. God I spent way too much time on that game. Still have my level 126 main account, and about 3 level 90 pure accounts. Like I said, waaaay too much time.

Also, Halo series, and I will probably lose my life again once Halo 4 is released.

This for sure. I remember like 5-6 years back I was addicted as fuck.

Haven't played any computer games for more than an hour at a time the last 4 years though. So boring.

Battlefield 2 I think I have something like 4000 hours over various accounts in pub servers and probably the same in private servers.

Probably around 1500 hours over Dod:s CSS, 1.6 and COD4

I am so happy that I have given that shit up though. Seriously massive waste of time.

Pokemon Blue when I was 8. I had months played..
Pokemon Ruby was a bad bad addiction. Me and my pokebuddies would get together and play.
Runescape has been an on and off addiction since I was 13, currently 18..

Around the age of 15 I discovered what an Xbox was. Oh god

Halo 2 & 3. Iv never had such an addiction comparable to Halo 3, my meth addiction wasn't even as bad.
Black ops im sitting at 34 days played.
and recently its been Assassins Creed. The 31st when AC3 comes out im seriously not going to leave my house for a week straight.

honestly, i spent so much of my later days just being an ass in trade. anytime peopel would start talking about accomplishments i'd be all s4-s5 glad, top 50 us raiding bla bla blaaaa and just fly around on my sweet mounts and shit. play the occasional RLS, RPS, and even did a few rogue/arms warrior comps which were pretty stupid good before warriors got nerfed all to shit, but yeah. still think about it, miss it a bit, but am glad i've moved on.

Age of Empires II. I played the shit out of that game back in the day. I'd do weekly LAN parties with my friends.
I just bought the HD version on steam the other day and it is GLORIOUS!

for me its a three way split between timesplitters 3 (i think it was the third one), halo 2 due to the massive amount of easter eggs and glitches you could do, it was awesome, and cod 4 because that game is the shit. i still game a ton but i wouldnt say im addicted anymore
