Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 - infinite replayability
This game is 20 years old. And yet, every year I buy another copy and play it again. Why play again? Because the game design is such that no two playthroughs feel the same. You move forward with different strengths and weaknesses, there's a lot of randomness in what you discover and explore, and there's a constant feeling of growing stronger and doing better by a path you've never taken in quite the same way before. Finally, the collection process is long-lasting and satisfying. Why buy again? Because I don't like discarding all the work I put into building a team and a collection, so I don't want to reset a cartridge!

An old game - but the best to date
I would have been happier if EA had continued this series for the PC platform rather than switching exclusively to consoles. The game is now old enough, it won't run on Windows 10.
It has some flaws (e.g. the PGA Tour mode has both a very high standard of performance for advancing, and a very slow rate of performance improvement). Still, the graphics, sound, and physics are compelling enough to provide an immersive experience. The other golfers have distinct skills and personalities, and it isn't long until you feel you're golfing with friends.
The experience accumulation and confidence gauge (the longer and better you play, the better the outcome for a given actual player performance) which were introduced in this game even gives it a little RPG feel. You can even improve your "confidence" by taking free training lessons.
You get a choice between traditional two- or three-click control and a new "trueswing" mode where you use your mouse something like the motion of your golf club. People with high dexterity may get more fun out of it - but it was hard for me.
You have enough in-game money that even if you struggle to develop skill, you won't run out, and it's fun to see the side-bets, skins, and other winnings pile up.
Game modes include practice, PGA Tour (which pretends your golfer works his way up to pro status and the FedEx Cup), "Tiger Challenge" (beat enough pros to earn the right to play against Tiger), and "Custom" (set up a game or tournament to your liking.) I don't do online play - but the option is available to play other real-life people.
The documentation leaves a lot unsaid - you really need to poke around at the UI and figure out all the things you can do, or you may get frustrated at your poor scores and slow advancement. There used to be a web site with more information but it's been taken down.
Overall, you can get hundreds of hours of golf simulation fun from this - it's worth much more than you're likely to have to pay for it.
