Re: Which games have you never get tired of playing?
I've played through Final Fantasy VI, Chrono Trigger, and Earthbound about 7-8 times each. So I've guess I've sunk about 250 hours into each game.
I really have a hard time playing the same game over and over. I have this mindset that basically amounts to: "why play something I've already completed when I can try something new."
So that's why I love it when games have multiple ports and reissues. So instead of playing through the typical SNES version of FF VI (III) last year I played the Super Famicom and GBA versions instead. Later this year, I'll probably tackle Mother 2 on the GBA instead of SNES Earthbound. That way I feel like I'm not playing exactly the same thing over and over.

Re: Which games have you never get tired of playing?
When browsing my collection, I think it would be easier to list games I do get tired of playing:
Superman Returns (PS2)
Final Fantasy XII (PS2)
Sword of Sodan (Genesis)
Dracula (Genesis)
Rampage (NES)
Where's Waldo (NES)
Dash Galaxy (NES)
Rollerblade Racer (NES)
Batman Dark Tomorrow (oxbox)
Prize Fighter (sega CD)
Tomcat Alley (sega CD)
Cliffhanger (sega CD)
NHL All Star Hockey (Saturn)
Doom 64 (N64)
Pit Fighter (snes)
...and I'm sure there are others. But in all honesty there aren't many games that I get tired of playing.

Re: Which games have you never get tired of playing?
The Legend of Zelda (NES) and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (NES) - I replay each of these about once a year.
Mega Man 2 - I love the music and the challenge. I still have the copy that I purchased at launch (or, rather, that my parents purchased for me at launch), and I still play through it about once every other month.
Ninja Gaiden (NES) and Ninja Gaiden 2 (NES) - Again, I still have my copies from my youth, and I still play them a lot.
Super Mario Bros. (NES) and Super Mario World (SNES) - Again, I still have the copies that shipped with my NES and SNES, and I still play them with some regularity.

SimCity 2000: IMO, the best version of SimCity ever made. I am beast at this game.
Command & Conquer Generals: My first RTS ever. I've probably spent more time on this game than any other I own. The skirmish mode and multiplayer (via LAN, of course) has infinite replay value.
Commander Keen: Episode 4: One of the best 2D platformers ever made for the PC. Classic pre-Doom id Games feel to it. It's decently long, lots of secrets, has a sense of humor, looks great, and the difficulty is just right.

Sonic Spinball. I'm not sure why I find that game so satisfying to run through, but I get sudden cravings for it at least once every year. Made all the more hilarious by the fact that 1) I hated it when it was first released and 2) I am so bad at actual pinball.
TMNT: Hyperstone Heist. This game is an instant pick-me-up. What I love most about it is getting fancy with the moves and making it cinematic for myself: sliding across the screen, doing backflips, using every jump variation, etcetera. I also sing along with the BGM practically the entire time. It is an impossibility for me to play that game and not be happy.

Re: Which games have you never get tired of playing?
- Zelda 1 - NES
- Mario 2 - NES - My favorite 2d platformer.
- Bubble Bobble - NES port - I prefer the NES to the Arcade version because it is the one that I had growing up so my brother and I played the crap out of it.
- Tetris - any 2 player
- Mario Kart 64 - N64
- Goldeneye - N64 - I still prefer it to Perfect Dark because it is simpler and more universal (Bond theme and all). Ive sunk more hours into this game than I care to admit and have played alot of cash matches for it. I have a side N64 just for this and Mario Kart... Ive said alot about Goldeneye that all of you already know, but loading it up and running around in it every year is just fun to me. And multiplayer in Temple, well thats where its at.
- Baku Baku - Saturn - My favorite falling block puzzle game.
- Indy Fate of Atlantis - PC - My favorite adventure game ever, the talkie just makes it better. My iMac G3 boots into this game.
- Half Life - PC - TFC and HLDM specifically. I will always have a version of Half Life installed on all of my pcs. I have three cds of it so I can play deathmatch with people at random - or TFC or CS with Bots. Or we can hop online and play some NS.
- Red Alert 2 - PC - My favorite RTS of all time. Its arcadey enough that 90% of matches are over in under an hour (most under 30 minutes), but deep enough that there are still a couple dozen strategies for any situation. My favorite was always to mine control a random car on the map to do scouting. I remember a tournament I entered and in the finals the other guy was alot better than I was so I decided to buck the tiger and ride it lean. I played random and got Russia, so I did the best Russian strategy I could think of while yelling lines from Hunt for Red October. I made nothing but Conscripts and played an attrition game with his base. After five minutes of screens of infantry attacking his base, the game was over. He was so pissed.
Im sure there are more, but those are the ones that stick out to me.
