Inspired by the thread "Most Tedious Game You've Ever Played?"

http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26342110

I found myself agreeing with a lot of the choices in that thread. It was a downer. LOL

But I was curious, what is the LEAST tedious game you've ever played? A game that had such fun gameplay, you kept going, going, going..... basically, you became the old Energizer bunny. LOL

A few games come to mind:

  • Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy... just str8 up fun gameplay, I wanted every star!
  • Mike Tyson's Punch Out... I can still play that game even thought it feels so outdated.
  • Prince of Persia Sands of Time... Can't say the same for the sequels, though. Very fun!
  • Return to Castle Wolfenstein/Enemy Territory multiplayer online.... maybe my favorite online shooter ever? Just designed for people who want a challenging yet still fun online pickup game. I still like it better than Team Fortress 2 and other team-based shooters online.

Y tu?

The Call of Duty games (in single player).....it always seems like there is something going on other then just run into a new corridor and shoot people. Airplanes crashing, bombs exploding, walls falling down or whatever.

The Metal Gear Solid series. You are too engrossed in the storyline to want to stop playing.

I've browsed my game collection, and couldn't find another game as less tedious as this.

This is actually a tough question. Where do you make the distnction between a game you enjoy and one you find so compelling that you never tire of the gameplay?

I know I'm gonna get chided for this, but I'm gonna say Dynasty Warriors. Of the games I played in that series, I never seemed to get tired of cutting down scores of brainless soldiers. Despite the fact that it was always the same thing, I would always come back for more. Craziess, I know!

I'm sure there are some better examples if I actually put some thought into it.

Quite recently,Viewtiful Joe.Already on my sixth playthrough,and it never gets old.I'll probably play it several more times before I get tired of it...and even then,I'll probably come back for more.

To me the opposite of tedious gameplay is gameplay that is to fun to stop so....a couple of games I have so much fun in its hard to stop are: Dark Cloud 2(ps2), Azure Dreams(ps1), Dynasty/Samurai Warriors(ps2)..... Yea im being a bit of a copy cat with the warrior games but its freaking true, I cant stop crushing armies until I've conquered everything either lol.

Endless Ocean(Wii)

If you get mad at that game, you need anger management lessons.
