Games you've spent/will spend 200+ hours on...

Pretty much every online FPS game I've played (UT99 and TF2 being the most spent)

The only MMOs I spent 200+ hours on to my knowledge is RF Online, Dekaron and Loong.

Few RTS games, Red Alert 2, Tiberian Sun and Starcraft Brood War.

I probably spent 200+ on other games like Diablo, Pokemon Red, but I can't say for certain.
 
Definitely gone over that with a bunch of Football Manager games.

Civ 5

Diablo 3 on ps4 (platinum trophy)

Fallout 3

Probably an EA Sports game or two over the years.
 
I've spent thousands of hours on Street Fighter IV across all versions and I absolutely expect to do the same with Street Fighter V.

Guilty Gear Xrd might creep up to several hundred hours between now and SFV's release.
 
Final Fantasy Tactics. Multiple Times. Probably spent a good 500 hours on it.

Every character in my party has to get every ability from every class or I'm not done.
 
The Sims 1/2/3
Simcity 4
Final Fantasy VIII/IX/X/XI/XII/XIII
Persona 3
Baldur's Gate 2

And plenty more. I like to replay games.
 
I'd actually say significant portion of the games i own i have played around or well beyond 200 hours.

I love RPGs, and those tend to be longer. I also don't buy many games, so the games i do buy i play for a long time even if they aren't amazing.
 
HYRULE WARRIORS

Probably Bloodborne, spent well of over 200 hours on Demon's Souls. I would have spent just as much time on Dark Souls if the online component wasn't so shitty. Bloodborne should be going back to dedicated servers like Demon's Souls, so I should be spending inordinate amounts of time with that game.
 
Any strategy games such as sins of a solar Empire, civilization, Master of Orion III.

Sadly nowadays I would kill to have 200 hours to play any games
 
Games I have:
All of the Bethesda RPGs
Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Sims 2
Pokemon Gold

Games I will:
Fallout 4. I'm aiming for 100 hours by the end of the first fortnight of it being out...
 
BF3
Gears 123
Mass Effect 123
UC2/3
Skyrim
Watch_Dogs (was good for movie making I guess)
Dark Souls
Destiny
Killer Instinct

And that's just what I can be bothered to remember this early.

I'm sure Bloodbourne, SF5 and MKX will top it.
 
I don't know any for sure but I'd guess at Civ 1,2 and 4 getting close to 200 hours. I may have spent that long on Virtua Fighter 4 Evo just playing quest mode with different characters and theres a good chance thanks to playing it to completion at least once and sometimes more every year since its original release that I've played Streets of Rage 2 that much.

I need one more playthrough to get there on Dark Souls I think.
 
Destiny. Never played any other game near that much. Probably next highest was Halo 3 multiplayer where I think I managed to get past level 10 and get a silver rank. Lieutenant. I am not great at multiplayer!
 
- World of Warcraft
- Wildstar
- Warcraft 3
- Starcraft 2
- Diablo 3
- Dungeon Defenders
- Dota 2

Not really a game, but according to steam I was using the RPG-Maker VX Ace for nearly 400 hours now (and at least 30-40+ were definitly playing and testing various games). And considering I played and used the older tools more often... well, yeah.

Also, games that may reach 200+ hours at some point:

- Hearthstone
- Crusader Kings 2 (75 currently)
 
Super Mario bros
Super mario bros 3
Pokemon red
Diablo 2
Neverwinter Nights
Dark souls
Dragon's Dogma

Maybe i'm forgetting something
 
Smash Bros.
Every individual Mass Effect title
Every individual Dragon Age title
FFXIV
Halo Reach
Every individual TES since Morrowind
Fire Emblem: Awakening
Destiny(sadly)
Halo 4(sadly)
MCC
Gears 3
Fallout 3
Uncharted 2
 
Too MUCH!

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep

FFXV
FFT0HD
Tekken 7

World of Warcraft
Quake 3
Diablo 3
Fallout 3/NV

Will spend:

All three Souls games, 200+ hours each easily, three platinum trophies.
Skyrim
Fallout 3
Destiny
GT5
Civilization 5

will spend:

Elite Dangerous (less than 200 hours, but I play nothing but Elite now)
Bloodborne, of course
 
PGR 2 - my favourite racing game. Took me at least 100 hours to earn most of the platinum medals and enjoyed the online mode for hundreds of hours

World of Warcraft - wasted 2-3 months ingame-time in the first year. The reason why I wouldn't start another MMORPG

Star Wars: The Old Republic - nobody's perfect.

Disgaea DS - endless grinding, I'm a notorious completionist.

Bayonetta - at first I didn't like the crazy art design, then I loved it, got the 100% and went for the high scores.

Dark Souls - my favourite game of all time. Wish there was a PS4 version but hopefully Bloodborne will satisfy my desires.
 
World of Warcraft: Pretty sure I sent almost 3000 hours in this game and that's not counting characters that have since been deleted. I played that game in all my spare time when I was younger for yeeeears. I don't regret a single second.

The Sims: I don't even want to think about how many months I've wasted across TS1, 2, 3 and to a lesser extent 4. My playtime of 4 alone is sitting at 80 hours but that counter froze back in November. Note that I've played 4 far, far less than 3. And then I've played that far, far less than 2.

FPS games: All I did for years in highschool with my friends was play shooters. COD, Halo 3 to ODST to Reach. So, so many months. Then there are things like Gears and Mass Effect that we all spent a ton of time playing. Good times.

More recently, I've probably poured over 200 hours into Persona 3 and 4 across all versions each, with way more to come when I replay them more. I'll probably end up spending over 200 hours in Persona Q when I'm done with absolutely everything as well.

Possibly Wind Waker too, considering I've played that game about 6 or 7 times...

Oh, and Skyrim which I always forget about. I apparently spent something like 300 hours in that game but I can't even remember playing it that much. It didn't feel like I did anyway (and not in the good way).

Edit I WILL GIVE MY LIFE TO PERSONA 5 WHEN IT RELEASES. ALL OF MY TIME.
 
Most MLB The Shows, and I expect 15 to easily drain 200+ hours. Final Fantasy VII would have easily taken 200+ . Destiny looked like it was on track, but I kicked that a few weeks ago and it would take an awesome update to get me back in.
 
There are a lot of games (mostly rpgs) i've spent more than 100 hours on, but only a few with more than 200...
I can only think of Mario Kart because i play it for the whole gen until the next one comes out, Monster Hunter games with tha insane amount of content and all those monsters to hunt in single player or online, and Destiny because i don't know.
 
Dota 2- 720 hrs
Skyrim - 200 ish hours
Original xcom - dunno, hundreds for sure
Fifa 2014 - 300 hrs
Hon - 200+ for sure
Starcraft 1 - 200+ for sure
Unreal tournament 1 - 200+ for sure
Tekken 4/5DR - 200+ for sure


...there is probably more...
 
I probably forgot some games, but it's hard to keep track of this.

Spent
- Tekken 1, 2, 3, 4, 5:
6 is when I began to slow down on it. That series is probably my most played of all time.
- Final Fantasy 9:
Finished it 5 or 6 times I think. It is the best fantasy rpg.
- Goldeneye:
This was the go to game for many years, be it solo or multiplayer.
- Perfect Dark:
Not near my insane Goldeneye playtime, but it did go over 200h easily.
- F-Zero GX:
Been playing regularly for a few years.
- Castlevania Rondo of Blood:
This game never ever gets old, I start playing anytime anywhere and great time ensue.
- Time Splitters 2:
Getting all of the characters and making maps for it, it easily accounted for 200+ hours.
- Resident Evil 4:
Every time I casually start a run, I end up finishing it, whether I intended to or not.
- Devil May Cry 3:
This game had me coming back a LOT, PS2 version, PC version, PS3 remaster. I know it by heart.
- Team Fortress 2:
It's more credit to an amazing server with a great community than to the game itself. My most played online multiplayer game, until...
- Dota 2:
1800 hours over the course of 3 years. I was in the beta in 2011 and stopped in early 2014. As I had learned most of what was to learn, the game became all pressure on perfect teamplay and execution, annihilating the little fun I had left playing it. Still had some great times, but the dedication required was too much.

Will Spend
- Heroes of the Storm
This game is my multiplayer surprise of 2015. I never expected to even like it, and didn't expect to get in the beta in the first place. I accidentally discovered I was in when checking my BNet account for other reasons.
I've been playing non-stop ever since, it's kind of like Dota, except fun! The fact that playing the objectives is more important than individual hero growth really hit the right nail for me.
- Smash Bros 4
My first smash bros, and I like it very much. It's different from the high execution barrier of other fighting games, no retard combos/juggles, not just-frame button presses for maximizing damages, no bullshit comeback mechanic. It's just plain outsmarting your enemy that make you win. And I love this. That and the online is very solid.
- Skyrim
I got into modding skyrim last year, and I got myself a pretty crazy game out of it. It will pass 200h very easily this year.
- Metal Gear Solid V
First I'll play the hell out of the SP, but if MGO is good, I expect to log in a lot of time. I'm craving a multiplayer game with some proper infiltration mechanics, and if a Battle Royale mode exist (as the game would be perfect for that) it would blow way past 200h in no time.
 
Spent:
Dark Souls
Tactics Ogre
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
Diablo 2
WoW
Persona 4 Golden
Dota 2

will spend:
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate
Bloodborne
tbc
 
I've probably gone over 200 hours with Dragon Age: Inquisition, as I spent 182 hours with the campaign, and I've played the multiplayer a plenty of times after completing the story.
 
I have over 2000 hours spent on FFXIV and I don't see that stopping anytime soon.



This. It's too easy to spend ridiculous amounts of time in MMOs in general.
I think I can easily get 200+ hours in an mmo I don't even enjoy particularly (a.k.a. TERA, pretty sure I'm on 500 hours)

non-mmo games I've spent a lot more than 200 hours on would be any Persona and SMT game.. wait, make that any Atlus game that's been release in EU. And most FF games, apart from the XIII series.
 
League of Legends. I am so lucky that the game doesn't count my time. Would go in 2000 hours+. In my earlier days it was Warcraft 3. Custom maps in battle.net were so much fun, I played this game for years.

Pretty sure I also played a lot Dawn of War with friends.
 
I can only think of two

Starcraft II
Europa Universalis IV
 
There are too many games I spent 200 hours on.

I know that these upcoming games will follow suit:
Persona 5
TES VI
Fallout 4
Mass Effect: *******
DayZ on PS4
