Gaming Game(s) that lasted you for a long time.

With the lack of new DS games, it's hard finding games nowadays that won't bore me. What games have you guys played for a long time? Definitely the Professor Layton series imo. I love replaying the puzzles.

Phantasy Star Zero is the only one I can think of.

Mystery Dungeon - Shiren The Wanderer

I think I put about 100 hours into the first DS game... And I still haven't finished the last 2 bonus dungeons.

Dragon Quest IX took a long time too..

Vulpes Abnocto · Jul 13, 2011

Dragon Quest - Rocket Slime
Disgaea DS
Final Fantasy Tactics A2
Rune Factory (1)
Plants Vs Zombies

I logged 100+ hours on all of these games.

Smash Bros Melee.

Last time I checked the statistics (shortly before getting brawl) it had over 700 hours played (almost exclusively 3-4 players). And that's only counting MY savegame, not when we played somewhere else on someone elses console/savegame.

Obvious early pokemon games also.
My Red and Silver savegames each have 200-250 hours on them (glad I never lost those savegames).
The ones afterwards I only played through once, though.

There might have been a few games that also got to the three-digit hour mark (Lufia II for SNES, Secret of Mana for SNES), but I don't remember many of them.
Also I'm not going to count any mmo's I played because I have simply no way of measuring how much time I actually spent playing them over the time that I had an active account there.

We're talking about DS games.

soma bringer...i played the shit out of that game

yuka001 · Jul 13, 2011

DQ Rocket Slime (50hours+), PS0 (80 hours+) and DQ9 (150hours+).
And Tingle, can't say how long exactly since there's no in-game timer, but definitely a loooong time (what with all the items to collect for alchemy, pretty much like Rocket Slime actually).

The Catboy · Jul 13, 2011

I've been playing the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games for quite some time now.
As well I clocked in countless hours playing Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor.

Ikki · Jul 13, 2011

Pokémon Soul Silver, definitely.
Last time I checked I had 300+ hours and I kept playing for a while after that.

Other than that, I have no idea. I have very little notion of time when I play, and I don't check often.
I know I played Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days for 100+ hours and Re:coded for a bit less than 100.

bahamut920 · Jul 13, 2011

I'd say the only DS game I've clocked a huge amount of time on is Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey. About 90 hours and 1.5 cycles before my DS Lite broke.

Super Scribblenauts may also count, but I have no idea how much time I clocked on it, both because there's no in-game clock that I know of, and because I beat it on flashcart before buying the physical cartridge, and I no longer have that save file (I think)...

As for non-DS games with DS ports, I've spent a ton of time on the PS-X Chrono Trigger and the PS2 Disgaea. Chrono Trigger I can definitely recommend, because they added a bunch of stuff to the Chronicles enhanced port, not to mention the SNES original. The only reason I haven't bought the DS version is because I've clocked so many hours on my Chronicles version, that starting over from scratch doesn't appeal to me. Disgaea is much more of a personal choice, because they had to fudge the graphics and especially the sound to fit it on the DS, but they did add a bit of new content, mostly some stages and new playable characters.
