... so I can feel bad about myself!
Top 10 games (I can only do Steam because I'm too lazy to monitor myself)

Rift: 1084 hours
Mount & Blade Warband: 494 hours (maybe 50 of those are my girl, so discount them if you wish)
Skyrim: 340 hours
Medieval 2 : 293 hours
Dragon Age: Origins 276 hours
Mass Effect: 235 hours
Planetside 2: 211 hours
Civ 5: 208 hours
Endless Space: 163 hours
Empire: Total War 143 hours

So yeah... that's a lot of time, and I barely broke the 150 hours mark where I really like a game in my top 10. Whatchyu nerds got?

My highest is 775 in TF2 but I don't have stats for the majority of my games. I have probably sunk at least as much time into Day of Defeat, DAoC ,World of Tanks and WoW over the years.

Officially... Borderlands 2 for 410 hours, Skyrim for 201, and still counting on both.
City of Heroes was a crazy amount of time spent, I miss it so much :( quick calculation puts it at somewhere between 3,500 and 4,000 hours...

Yeah, based on the hours spent on RIFT I can guesstimate time I've spend on other MMOs I've played and it makes my brain sad.

If you still have an account, you can just played your characters.

I had a mod that listed them all by time played (along with other info, using for tracking alts) and totalled it. It was scary.

Hmmm, just on Steam? The only one I can lay any claim too is Football Manager 2012: 210 hours and Football Manager 2013: 198 hours....

As for other games, well I reckon I've clocked up well over 200 hours on Skyrim for PS3 and maybe 100+ on FIFA '12. But seeing as I flit between most games and only tend to play them through the once then I have nothing to write home about vis Game hours in toto...

I've spent 1252 hour playing EVE Online over the past 15 months. When I get a new computer I expect that number to rise quickly.

CoD4 is my record but I've got some ludicrous hours logged (not all on Steam mind you). 470+ on BFBC2, like 700 on Titan Quest, and I must have by now put in 800 or 850 into STO. EDIT: And god. Are we counting the entire pokemon series as one game? That's gotta be a couple thousand by now.

Skyrim tops it at 313 hours, followed by Mount and Blade: Warband at 295, and then Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion at 114.

Skyrim would actually be second if I hadn't suddenly got a renewed interest in it over the past week.

Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

For me my top is crusader kings 2 at 511 hours, though to be fair I've owned it since march last year and it's the game I play when they is nothing to do. Other worthy contenders are Warband at 427 hours (about 100 of those are on the multiplayer) and 197 hours on Europa Universalis 3. Suffice to say I'm a fan of Paradox.

I don't know what your talking about *stuffs face with creampuffs*

EDIT: Though I suppose I should clarify I wasn't playing per se. i was one of my clan's servers only active admins (only me and one other person could be relied upon to be regularly present in the server). Two or three thousand (random guess number) of those hours were likely spent sitting in spectate doing other things and taking cursory looks through the server XD

Were there be dragons....

Worst Culprit I know off is Mount and Blade Warband since the April it came out at 732 and counting, virtually all online. I have no idea about the original but it must be 300 easy.
My worst ever games would be SW Battlefront 1 and 2 on the ps2. I have no record but they are well over the 1000 mark, maybe even 2. And I did not have an internet connection back then either... all on my Larry unless I persuaded a friend to play it

I think I logged about 300 hours playing Escape Velocity on my brother's Mac way back in the day, and while Master of Orion 2 didn't steal quite that many from me, it did cause me a lot of trouble during finals season in college.
