Doom 3, Baldur's Gate 2, Morrowind and Noone Lives Forever have each had a fair number of playthoughs. (I feel there should be another one or two mentioned here, but I can't seem to remember what they were.)

I haven't been a console gamer since the days of the N64, but boy, did we two have some good times. That was... a lifetime ago.
He was in the super ulta mega pre pre pre pre pre alpha in the 1800's when it was just an incomplete story passed on from generation to generation. (lol i know what the op meant but 102 years is a bit of an over exageration.) But i know what you mean I played that game on and off for years. There is only one other game I have played equally as much that I seem to play every couple of months and I don't know why. I don't even know how many times I have beaten it now but that game is Earthbound. Love that game.

These are my main ones in order of time played

1. Sacred Underworld
2. Sacred 2
3. TQ:IT
4. Diablo 2
5. Skyrim
6. Oblivion

As you can see, I'm a bit stuck in the same genre

Sadly my most anticipated game D3, has only managed just over a month

Hard to tell, as I can't look it up. My bet would be:
1. League of Legends
2. Heroes of Newerth
3. Diablo 2
4. Titan Quest
5. Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory

LoL and HoN were really miss or hit games; most of time per game I'd bore myself in laning phase - and at least 75% (probably much more) of games were absolute crap, but when you got a good game, it seemed all worth it. Well, in the start. I ended up playing those games way too long.

Other contestants (don't know the amount played anymore) would be:
UFO: Enemy Unknown
X-Com: Apocalypse
Transport Tycoon
Rollercoaster Tycoon
Unreal Tournament
Team Fortress 2
Dungeon Defenders

My top would be:

FFIII (150 - 200 hours for playthroughs)
TF2 (1k+ hours)
D2 (3k+ hours I'm sure through vanilla and mods)

Dunno really.. but D2 has been my most played game by a long shot.

The longest for me would be without question Titan Quest & its expansion (Immortal Throne).
I still play it to this day.

Other games I have played for long periods of time (over & over again) are...

Diablo 1 & 2
Dead Island
Demons Souls
Dark Souls
Resident Evil 1, 2, 4, 5
Dead Space 1 & 2
Dragon's Dogma
Borderlands
Sacred 1

^ That's all I can think of at the moment.

PS
And I am confident that Grim Dawn will be added to that list soon enough.

I play a mix of retro and new games. Some of the longest games I've played and still playing to this day.

Whole heap of Atari 2600/5200/7800 and C64 games. 20-30+ Years

Pitfall II Adventurers Edition for the Atari 130XE - 27 Years and still trying to finish it. The rope is the last item that I need for the Snake Charmer to finish the game. The rabid bats are almost impossible to get past.

Super Star Wars (SNES) - 20 Years
+ a whole heap of SNES games

Command & Conquer - 17 years
Red Alert - 16 Years
Diablo - 16 Years
Fallout - 15 Years
Baldurs Gate - 14 Years
