What's your guilty pleasure in gaming?

Game Trailers made a list of videogames involving some degree of guilt.  
 
See it? 
 

Eh, I'd say Romancing SaGa. I know the game is maligned in the West and the gameplay mechanics are stupidly rough, but I think I'm starting to like the damn games.

The list was okay. I could defend a few of those (DOAX, I kid you not, actually had some really fun and surprisingly deep volleyball for using only 3 buttons) 
One I'm willing to admit is The Sims 3, which I too can defend (but no one will understand, as 90% of the people I tell this too give me a confused look) : I play it for the simulation bits. I love seeing how a simulated town of people will act, especially when a few people with some extreme behaviors come into play.

Mine used to be free-to-play MMOs. It's been a while since I've picked up any of those seriously, though.

kingdom hearts ugh!! Im sorry its TRUE!!!

I don't feel guilty about playing anything. You should feel guilty if you feel guilty for playing something. You know what i mean?

Why would you feel guilty about playing KH? :O "

Creating skimpily clothed custom female characters in Soul Calibur is a big guilty pleasure for me.

Because of social pressures, as "Aren't you too old for playing disney games?" or "That's sooooooo childish!". "

World of Warcraft. 3 good years of my life I'll never get back. (It was pretty awesome, though)

DOAX.  
 
 
dude, that game was a classic on the xbox. <3 Ayane

Ar Tonelico 2, the game was so bad, but i couldn't help loving it.

The Pokemon games. THEY JUST KEEP SHOVING NEW POKEMON IN MY FACE!

I don't actually know since it's a little hard to see myself objectively in terms of guilty pleasures in games. I'm thinking hard but I've got nothing to bring to the table.

I'm not guilty of any fun I can have regarding a video game.  I'm sure I'd even enjoy a good dating sim, if I ever played one.

Then that's my guilty pleasure too. Not that I've ever run into anyone who've said that, yet. Most people just go "Really? Mind if I watch a little?" and then they went out and bought the games.  "

Too Human
 
Say what you will, they did so many things wrong with this game, but when you get into the groove of just sliding around, bashing dudes, tossing them around in the air, juggling them with guns, unleashing super powers....that game is AWESOME!!!  The core gameplay is so good, everythign else is terrible, needless to say I have absurdly high hopes for the 2nd one.

Wow! Pokemon, Kingdom Hearts, GTA, Animal Crossing; I Should feel really guilty! But I don't.

Does spending $1000+ in the GTAIV strip club count?

I don't understand the question. I don't feel guilty for doing/playing anything.

I liked GUN a lot, and I guess most people thought it was pretty bad.

" I liked GUN a lot, and I guess most people thought it was pretty bad. "

" I play Kingdom Hearts cus its actually a good game I played Pokemon cus its actually a good game I play DOAX cus im a pervert. the real question is...  SO?!! "

Gunz and pokemon are high on my list.

Pokemon and the Persona series.

Sneak King and anything Katamari.  I enjoy the hell out of them.

RapeLay. Just kidding.  
 
For me, it's the recent Tony Hawk games. Hell, I even have THP8 on PSP.

I definitely agree with them putting that as #1, as that is one of those games everyone knows about and those who aren't into it tend to roll their eyes when it's mentioned. 

I also forgot Elebits.  That game was fucking sweet!

" Pokemon and the Persona series. "

The first DOAX on the original Xbox.  I put in hundreds of hours on that game just to make sure everyone had some of Lisa's suits.   If you played the game, you know why Lisa's.   The original game had less game play options than the sequel, but the games it did have were more...obsessive.  Timing was everything in the pool or on the volleyball play field.  And, timing was also important in gift giving.  Ah, I know too much about this game.  I doubt Koei Tecmo will make another, though.

This game owns and I would gladly play it right now, but probably feel a little guilty about it. Also got a lot of mileage out of Crystal's Pony Tales as a kid, which I'm not proud of, but I doubt that one stands the test of time. Other than that I can't really think of anything else... besides maybe enjoying to play the Staind song in Rock Band 2 way too much.
 

My favorite song to drum in Rock Band 2 is the Paramore song.

Yikes. Pokemon I can understand, but how is Persona a guilty pleasure?  For me, recently, I guess the Wallace and Grommit episodes. "

I liked it too. Then again, I love westerns. "

It's a very much Japanese RPG series with angsty characters and dating sim elements. How is it not a guilty pleasure? "

Westerns are the shit, I'm waiting for a western MMO. "

Eye of the beholder I guess. Persona is strange, but never would I feel embarrassed enough to call it a guilty pleasure. Look at it this way: People like watching Persona, crap, look at the Endurance Run. Angst ridden characters is something you'll find everywhere. It's good entertainment. As for it's weirdness for being Japanese, it sure got nothing on Katamari.  "

I used to play Maple Story and liked it even when not under the influence of narcotics.  *hangs head in shame*

Job interview. You somehow get on the topic of video games. Guy talks about how much he loves that Call of Duty and asks you about what you play.  
 You say that you've been playing a game called Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4, recently. 
He then asks what its about. 
You then say you play as a teenage boy moving to a big city, where he gains the power to jump into TVs and use the power of Personas to defeat shadows. One shadow was a stripper. You then delve into the dating sim aspects of the game, and how you can, indeed, sleep with a cougar of a nurse, and say "Is the floor good with you?" to your girlfriend. 
Your boss is then weirded out, because you just talked about a guilty pleasure game. "

Don't really have any, if anything I'd be guilty about playing and finishing Final Fantasy X-2 three times...
