Everytime I see a new Dark Souls lets play, check some cheeky breeky meme of Stalker or hear the intro of Morrowind theme I get this very serious itch to replay them; its like surfing channels and finding Goodfellas, Almost Famous or Blade 2 and I have to just watch the movie regardless of the fact it just started and it 2 am.
I have a big videogame backlog and feel kind of guilty replaying a game many times but I just cant help that feeling of just knowing every inch of undead borrows, rushing to get the AKM from the boat near the cranes in Call of Pripyat or hearing Shodan's "run through my corridors" intro to System Shock 2....
I bet I am not the only one

Civilization. Pick your poison throughout the years, each iteration has its advantages and drawbacks, but for the past 20+ years it has continuously brought me back for one more turn. It's kind of disgusting how much time I've put into these games, and wonderful.

Nox. I think I know every map by heart at this point, but I just can't stop. Same with FEAR.

Single-player story based game? New Vegas, I replayed that game to death and back several times, every so often I'll see something related to it and will fire it up and play for few hours.

As a skirmish type of game, I have been playing Age of series since they have been released basically, same with RA2 and Cossacks. Played loads of Civ and grandstrategy too, recreational strategy games are very replayable.

Trials series, Fusion and Evolution. I can play that shit anyday. Still gets alot of user content but I always like to go for better leaderboard position or a new platinum medal.
Got an hour to kill? Play Trials.

Usually when I buy a new game, I get bored halfway through it and start one of those four for the millionth time.

I haven't replayed my go to games in years, so it is definitely long overdue.

Good strategies (and some other games with strategical elements) differ so much between plays, so it's not really "re-playing".
 

Got bored and left

Football. Fucking. Manager (and Championship Manager before that). Jesus Christ, it feels like I spent half my life playing those goddamn games over and over again.

And as for story-driven games, it's Morrowind and the two first Gothics for me. Played the shit out of them as a kid and I keep coming back every now and then, love those games to death.

This. I've been clean for a while, but I hear it calling every now and then, which fills me with both dread and excitement.

Deus Ex isn't my most replayed game (that would be Max Payne which I probably finished like 20+ times with different mods back in the day), but it's one that I've been regularly replaying after its release.

Civilization (no mods, mostly V with all the DLCs and stuff), The Guild: Europa 1400 (gold edition), Baldur's Gate 2 (no mods, just normal gog.com version with expansion).
Morrowind, Skyrim and New Vegas get some replays too.

Used to replay Dark Messiah of M&M at least once a year since release, but stopped this year.

Same with NFS Underground 2.

Used to be paradox games, in particular EU, but I am burned now and have an hard time enjoying them (except CK).

Still, Civilization games and football manager, always come back.

In high school I got badly hooked to Fallout 2. Beat the game like 9 times in a row and almost failed several subjects because of it. This last couple of years I played a ton of NWN modules. And every year I get hooked to Sengoku Rance for a few weeks.

Homm 3. I play at least 1 game a month and some times just do the campaigns for fun. I don't even want to know how many hours I have in Homm 3 overall.
