I keep coming back to Smite, to Binding of Isaac (rebirth hype is real) and GRID: Autosport. So freaking good!
What game do you keep coming back to?

Well, if its inked in some way on my body, I'll never go a year without playing it. 
So Pokemon and Freelancer are the usual suspects. I'll probably keep playing WoT until the servers vanish and Chrono Trigger gets treated to an occasional replay as well.
I replay most of my games actually... I don't grow my collection at the rate of High School Redlin anymore due to lack of funds for the hobby so now I mostly stick with my favorites and pick up the occasional title. I still have a lot on Steam I need to go through though... Also OP gets a thumbs up for putting Secret of Evermore on his list!

Several spring to mind:
* Half-Life/Portal series
* Homeworld
* MechCommander/MechWarrior series
* Dota 2
* Halo series (notably CE, ODST, and Wars)
* Lode Runner: The Legend Returns
* Counter-Strike series
* Doom series
I'll be honest, I revisit a lot of my old favorites from time to time. More than are on this list. I'm a sucker for nostalgia trips. It's a habit that, unfortunately, sometimes has a tendency to eat into my play time for newer games.
The best you can hope for is the only known treatment. That being: playing more Dota. It's the only way to satiate the cravings.
Best of luck to you.

Sorry to tell you this, but it's terminal. There's no cure. It's a lost cause.SomeLameStuff said:

..really should stop playing that last one, it's really hard to stop c_c
Morrowind: I have literally been playing that game for over a decade and I still keep finding new things in it now and then.
Jak and Daxter Trilogy: Some old school open world platform-y fun.
Metal Gear Solid 3: I almost always have time to go back into the Jungle and mess around with the morons that Volgin keeps hiring. Maybe the plot will be more coherent this time around.

I'm pretty cyclical with my playing of games- play for a while, walk away for a few months or a season, then come back fresh.
Skyrim and The Binding Of Issac are two that call me back once and a while. Risk of Rain as well, but I've yet to really walk away from it, heh.
But all of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R games take the cake for me. Replay them over and over... I ALWAYS end up back in the Garbage or at the Scorcher, and hours bleed away...

You know, recently I haven't had anything I can keep going back to, kinda sucks. I just end up watching other people play games on Twitch now lol.
My previous go-to games are:
Dragon's Dogma- I've beaten that game way too many times, it's also the only game I've ever done a speedrun in, finished it in an hour and 30 minutes! Could do it even faster if I placed all the portcrystals at better spots.
Metal Gear Solid 3 & 4- It's crazy how there seems to always be stuff to do in them, I only recently discovered that you could strap C-4 to people's bodies, and I've had this game for years....
Dark Souls- I'm too used to Dark Souls 2 to be able to go back to it, for some reason I just can't re-adjust to DS1.
Demon's Souls
Fallout 3 & NV- If I ever get the DLC for them, they'll probably become my time sinks again.

I'm replaying Kings bounty games currently as well as getting back into playing good old Team Fortress hat simulator.
I'll never really stop playing league of legends and Dark Souls (Hyped for it's transition to steamworks). Oh and I'll always go back and do a playthrough of Baldur's Gate every now and then.

Judging on my history of replays... probably Silent Hill 2, Okami and Shadow of the Colossus. The Arkham games as well.
Let's see...
-Baldur's Gate 1 and 2
-The Longest Journey
-Unreal Tournament 2004
-Heroes of Might & Magic 3
-Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2
And finally Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic are all games I've continued to play semi-consistently since their release 5+ years ago.

Symphony of the Night. I play it once a year without Fail, like a holiday. Usually Chrono Trigger too.
Every so often, I decide that I need to replay Final Fantasy VIII, and then during the course of playing it, remember what a horrible game it is in terms of both characters (seriously, Squall, seriously, you mopey twat who gets everything handed to him?) and game design (oh my god, a boss is threatening this country, better spent half an hour sucking magic from it's ass) and end up stopping around Disc 3, every time.
Sim City 2000 also gets an honourable mention as something I always kinda liked, but since I found Tropico 4, it kinda shot SimCity 2000 in the chest and dumped it's body in a bathtub with acid.
Also, Fallout 3, but not because it's amazing. It's because my friends always talk about it, so I load it up thinking "Right, THIS time I'll figure out why it's so good" and I still don't enjoy it very much.

I have quite a few actually, but off the top of my head:
Psychonauts PS2
Silent Hill 2 PS2
Persona 4 PS2
Resident Evil 4 Gamecube/PS2
Godhand PS2
Resident Evil 2 Playstation
Banjo-Kazooie N64
Pokemon Red and Pokemon Blue Gameboy
Pokemon: Soulsilver Nintendo DS
Deadly premonition: Directors cut Playstation 3
Castlevania:Symphony of the Night Playstation
I am currently replaying Godhand and I love the game so much, regardless of the steep difficulty curve.

The one and only...
Rome : Total war (original)
No game has the re-playability that it offers , NONE !
Not even medieval 2 total war comes close . Rome is truly a masterpiece , worth to be played a million times.
I have spent more than 300 hrs on it and i still love it.
There is no rts , tbs game that comes close to this one.
The game has two expansion , each as big as the base game itself !
The graphics may be bad for some idiots but there are some excellent graphic mods.
Just check out this trailer.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5wgwMFiIaU
and this is piece of its epic soundtrack http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zj_kRsTUwJc

Oh there are so many... Quest for Glory 1-5, full playthroughs... I'm absolutely obsessed with that series, and I WANT a remake so badly. I think it could be well done in an open-world RPG setting since basically thats what the series was within the limitations of the Sierra adventure games format.
Other than that? Name any 90's Sierra game, ANY Legend of Zelda and I'll play it again just because I love those games.
ARMA 2 for some reason keeps calling me back despite the huge learning curve it seems to present me.
X-COM: UFO Defense and also the current remake
Hitman 1-4 and Absolution (Blood Money is the best but I love the whole series, even Absolution...)
Temple of Elemental Evil - There's something about this game that kills me, its difficult as hell and I've never finished a playthrough but I keep coming back to it.

First of all, even though I find not as impressive as the first, Dark Souls 2.
And there is item crafting, which is always a plus for me.
Anyway crappy tangents aside, recently I got into Counter Strike global offensive. I must say, as a cod fanboi, I am very pleased with this game. A military like shooter that requires both teamwork twitch at the same time, where has this game been all my life.
Probably gonna try to master this game for monthes to come, then give up on it and buy account to smurf.
O and you can collect skins that can go up to 300 dollar, so if I play long engouh I can get that one rare knife and make all those twelve year olds squeal of the mad jelly. (This is a Valve game, after all)
I've been wanting to try this for a while now, since I cannot get into Master of Magic because the graphics ui there kills my eyes. (And babies, unborn babies)The Madman said:
