What games make you procrastinate?

Im currently in school and often find myself putting off work to play games. I remember when skyrim came out I couldn't stop thinking about it and often rushed through or didn't complete my work. So what games have you ignored your work for?

Pretty much all of them.

FIFA 12. I would play the career mode for hours and hours.

Well I reached a place where when I procastinate, I do it because I want to, and not because I feel the urge to play games.

ALL GAMES, sometimes I will start a game up, then immediately shut it down once it loads because it takes too long to load.

I generally only play games with a story and I play them once so I don't lose much time to them. I have in the past though. Counter-Strike tournaments > Exams and all that jazz.

Skyrim often causes me to procrastinate as of late.

Honestly Giantbomb causes me to procrastinate more then games do. I only play games at school when I am done with all my work. On the other hand I find myself going here in the middle of assignments to check the forums or for new content.

This was the case for me last Nov/Dec.

Um, no game causes one to procrastinate. You may procrastinate by playing a game, but it is never the game's fault. As somebody with severe ADD, this has been something I've had to learn the hard way over the past several years. But if you were to ask which games I played when procrastinating, the answer would be "most of them."

Any game that is good

Thats exactly what they want you to think.

  Burn in hell, its definitely the games fault for being good!

Currently The Saboteur.

Often MMO's, I spend many a school hour thinking about WoW and Lotro.
Even better was Zelda Ocarina of Time though, I was mental with that game back in the lower grades, near obsessed.
I was just humming the Hyrule field theme all day in school.

StarCraft II. It's always so easy for me to say "one more match before I start working" even though that's not the case, and matches last so long that when I realize I should really start working, it's really late.

Starcraft II and now Counter-Strike Global Offensive

TV, gaming, and the internet are the reasons I don't have what it takes to do a PhD program. I will never get anything done.

If I get home and all my friends are playing TF2, no work will get done

This.

Yeah, this is what I was going to say.

Anything that isn't school work > school work.

I had to cold turkey LoL in order to work on my own game. I've played maybe 6 matches since last November.

Counterstrike still hounds me, but I'm bad enough at it that I can usually quit if I need to.

CounterStrike:Source or Skyrim. I usually just do it because I dread what the work entails (Term paper, making a study guide etc.)

I feel pretty pathetic saying this, but what does Procrastinate mean?

pro·cras·ti·nate/prəˈkrastəˌnāt/

No idea why it's so big.

Currently it's dota 2 for me and boy when I really get into it with friends I can kiss whatever remaining hours of the day left good bye!

The Video type of Games.

All the games?

If my current games don't make me want to procrastinate I will buy a new one that will... Currently it's the Witcher 2 and Trials evolution.

The video kind.

i've found the assassins creed games to be intense time dumps

most games i'll play a bit every so often, i've spent 80 hours in Skyrim but thats divided into 1 - 3 or max 5 hours sessions over months

but theres something about the assassins creed series that makes me disregard everything else until its complete

internet creeping tends to eat up more procrastination time, or listening to music
