EVE Online, **** knows how much I spent but I started playing when it was released and only let my sub run out about a year ago.
Honestly it was like a drug...i was hooked . Also everyone was buying preloaded microsoft gamertags with 8000 xbox points / credit off this chinese web site for around £2.80 ...so i jumped on that band wagon. After 3 years i got a console ban as the hundreds of accounts i had bought over the years were all used for credit card fraud .
I had no idea . Everyone was doing it and thousands of consoles got a online ban.
The only positive from this whole ordeal was that i stoped smoking....i couldn’t afford both...
My last cigarette was may 2010
Just the full price for Skyrim on pre-order.
Considering how many hours I've spent playing, worked (and still playing ATM) cheaper than my TV license, considering how much TV I watch.
One game that would bankrupt someone easily was The Sims. As usual, EA games can be like a mortgage.
Never spent money buying items in-game, though.
But bought DLCs, which sometimes are robbery at plain sight.

Apart from 9 months on WoW circa 2006, it's likely still Street Fighter 2 Turbo for the Snes in 1993 or so, which was something like £79.99 after buying SF2 standard for £69.99 the year before. An extortionate amount back then, but it was such a good port, Turbo is still an amazing game to this day on my Snes mini. For how much worse it is, SF 2 standard was way less value for money and a bigger ripoff.
Depends what you mean in regards to spend ...
I subbed to wow from launch until 2012 so that contributed a fair old bit
Otherwise backed Shenmue 3 with £200..
But not technically out yet.
Spent £70 on LoL but over 5 years so not a massive amount really
-edit-
Diablo 3 I guess .
Had the game on PC, and also on 360.
Expansions on PC
Whole game and expansion combo on PS4
Whole game again on switch
Not pc specific tho

Street fighter 2 cartridge only £60 off someone who bought the snes bundle. I think the bundle came out before you could buy game only in shops.

For me it's probably Warframe - at a guess, probably something in the region of £150. No regrets though, enjoy the game and happy to support the developer.

Sims 3 and all expansions as and when they were released. All for the missus too.
Probably Tropico 5 with DLCs. Should have waited for the sales. Have learned my lesson.

Either elite dangerous. Bought game, Hoyas, and then rift. Played hard for about 3 months then sold rift. Total about 200.
Or world's of tanks. Played solidly since beta. Bought e25 and type 59. Plus premium account for about 4 years. Total maybe 300. Play on FTP account now and have done for last year or so.

Mhm, I just dropped $99usd on Borderlands 3 super deluxe edition + season pass which is up there for me.
The most would be WoW and World of Tanks - WoW includes all game and DLC until Mist of Pandaria + $15usd month/sub = hundreds of dollars.
World of Tanks I dropped about $200usd over a year buying DLC content and currency.

£50 for guild wars 2
About £20 for each expansion (2)
Then I've probably put up to £100 in to Gems over the last 7 years. So about £200 in total.
Not sure if I've spent more in any other game.
Edit: I guess if we consider hardware changes for a game then cs would have cost me £1000+ over the last 15 years.

WoW £10 a month and I played it for 10 years plus the base game and the deluxe expansion packs it's well over a grand I also had a few race changes/ faction changes etc but I don't have a single regret I enjoyed wow when I played it and had loads of friends on their etc so well worth the money spent for the memories gained that'll last a life time

I mean World of Warcraft right? There's probably been 20 months in the last 15 years I haven't been subbed.
So base game plus all expansions (not BFA) and 8.99-9.99/month. Not included brief periods I had multiple accounts.

BF5, can’t remember how much it cost though but remember at the time it was the most expensive game I’d bought. Not full price mind you, VPN’d it. So probably £50?
Worst game purchase ever.

Whatever the PlayStation cost back in the 90s as I bought it for one game only, Metal Gear Solid.
