What games have you sunk hours into?

We've all had a game, or games which we thought were so awesome that we sunk hundreds of hours into them, getting everything we could out of it.

One of these games for me was Final Fantasy Tactics: Advance. It was an okay SRPG, but what really hooked me was the job system. I spent over 150 hours just messing around with the job system, combining classes, mastering them and levelling them. I had a Viera with all her jobs totally mastered. I had a Gunner/Thief who could totally break the game with a 100% accurate Stopshot/EXP Steal. It took me ages to build him like that. It's not like I had anything else to do, having screwed myself out of being able to get Cid.

The other game was Jump Ultimate Stars. The combination of deck construction and online play made me put so many hours into it that I broke the game's playtime counter. (It stops counting after 99 hours). Using different combinations of koma and layouts and getting the perfect support/special combo was just addicitive stuff. We need more NPF people playing this.

Well I've gone on enough. Share your stories of games you spent hundreds of hours on for whatever reason.
