Life-devouring games

Ah, the fun of life-devouring computer games, you know - you come home from work, have a bite to eat, then start gaming. Next thing you know, you look at the clock and discover that it's well past midnight... The latest of these I've found is Microsoft's Age of Mythology (sequel/prequel to the Age of Empires games), as fine a real-time strategy game as I've played in a long while. I downloaded the 345 meg demo the other day, and I suspect I'll be popping into town on Wednesday to pick up the full version - I expect many an evening will be lost to this game. Unfortunately, the laundry's only half-way done, so I can't get to bed for another hour or so. Time for another game ;-)
