Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings Europa Universalis III Victoria II All the above games were also played with their respective expansions.
The first one takes the crown without a doubt, since I played it to exhaustion. And I would continue to, if it played better than it does in Windows 7.
I also played a lot of other games that deserved to be mentioned, but these are the ones that I constantly played, and kept coming back to due to their repeatability factor.

baldurs gate 2 - the first single player game that REALLY grabbed me by the nuts and held me down for hundreds of hours
rome: total war - i have sunk countless hours into several of the total war games, but choosing this one as its my all time favourite
dragon age - when it came out it felt like a renaissance of crpg to me, i skipped more than a week of uni, just to play this game from dawn to dusk, each day every day
i think you underestimated just how much games obsession goes on with the users of this forum, the 3 game rule made the choices so hard. there are so many other games i wanted to list.
Battlefield 3 still rocks my shoes and about a year ago was really an obsession.
Severance (still waiting for an updated sequel)
Commandos (hard as fuck but really satisfying to finish)
Honorable mention:
PUSHOVER - That fucking game almost drove me mad, I recall even dreaming about it...
Other than various MMOs, my highest play times were 150+ hours in New Vegas and Dark Souls. I do have 230 hours in BF3 but I don't consider myself obsessed since I only play 1 or 2 rounds a day.
What the hell do You do in Dark Souls for 150hours?
I was done and finished with everything in that game in 55
3080, ps5, lg oled
Sin317-"im 31 years old and still surprised at how much shit comes out of my ass actually ..."
SteamDRM-"Call of Duty is the symbol of the true perfection in every aspect. Call of Duty games are like Mozart's/Beethoven's symphonies"
deadpoetic-"are you new to the cyberspace?"

I kept restarting, I'd get halfway through the game and think "I don't like this character, let's try something else". I used to have the same problem in MMOs where I would get to mid to high level and then delete my character on a whim.
The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.
It's been many years since I obsessed about games. I think the game I was most obsessed with was Daggerfall (before release). The way they made it sound in previews was just dreamy. I remember having the entire summer off - and I just spent the majority reading PC magazines and usenet groups about Daggerfall. I listened to MIDI music previews and all kinds of crap.
I ordered the "super" edition from overseas which came with a huge guide - and I lit some candles and turned down the lights so I was ready to take it all in.
Unfortunately, the game was extremely buggy and it just didn't live up to the hype for me - at all. But it gave me a good week or so of gaming heaving - until I discovered how broken it really was.
Yes, I've wanted TES to get back to the "entire" world for a while - but I know it's all but impossible to do and get a good result. Maybe one day when procedural technology is at the right level - we'll see something like that.
Then again, we could also wait until they've created a TES game for each region - and just make a game with all of them
