I have found 2 games that I can't seem get enough of, no matter how much I play.
1. MTW tops my list by a huge margin. The time I've spent on it is extreme, but far from wasted. Strangely, although I loved STW, I couldn't play it as much as MTW and always needed breaks from it.
2. Counter-Strike is the second. I can go whole days in one sitting while hardly tiring of it. After a good night's sleep I'm hungry for it again and I've been playing it for 4 years now.
Honourable mentions would be:
Civilization II
Alpha Centauri
Master of Orion II
The Manager (on ZX Spectrum)
Capitalism II
X-COM: UFO Defense
MUDs (online text based RPGs)
These honourable mentions have each received hundreds of hours from me (literally, Capitalism II logs the time on each game and there are several hundred hours there) but still are nowhere near MTW or Counter-Strike in time spent. Life is great.

I can't really recall from when I was still playing on the SNES, but on the PC (of which I can remember it a bit better) I played the following games for a lot of hours:
- Warcraft II + first expansionpack.
- Diablo II + LOD expansionpack.
- Starcraft + Broodwar expansionpack.
- Delta Force 2.
- Delta Force: Landwarrior.
- Medieval: Total War (Although I started with STW, STW didn't work properly on my old machine. So I couldn't play it all that much. When I got a new PC MTW already came out and by the way I had bought it before upgrading).
- The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind + Tribunal & Bloodmoon expansionpacks.
- Counterstrike.
- Jagged Alliance 2.
- Close Combat IV.
Can't really remember any others I've extensively played, but there must be some others, especially SNES games.

This one is the most recent. Then BGII (roughly 5 games finished), X-Wing Alliance, and ,probably the big hitter, Heroes of Might and Magic III.
