Addicted

I need to first off apologise for not being able to post this week…the internet was and maybe still is down at CYM and the internet at home was being a bum so sorry for the failure of my promise to post every other day. Hopefully next week I’ll be able to post as much as I like.

Anyway, this last week or so, I’ve found myself really addicted to playing ‘Football Manager 2005′ on the PC. I’ve found myself playing it for hours on end, getting really into my team, figuring out tactics and everything and getting over involved in games! It’s sad I know but it got me thinking about the games I’ve been addicted to over the years…

So here in classic hayleycornwell.com style, here’s the top 5 most addicted to games EVER!

In no particular order…

  • Championship or Football Manager (going all the way back to Championship Manager 97/98)
  • Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on the Master System (Me and my sister Tanya played it once for like 14 hours or something! It’s more addictive than crack cocaine*)
  • Goldeneye on the N64
  • Metal Gear Solid (the first one…I thought the other ones weren’t as good)
  • Tony Hawks Pro Skater (again the first one…me and my mate Matt could and would play it for what seemed like days…After one extra long playing session, Matt once claimed that he felt the pain when his skater would crash! That’s a good sign of someone addicted to a game

*BULLET POINT - This is not actually true…Sonic the Hedgehog isn’t as addictive as crack cocaine but to be fair…it is close! ha ha!
