  • bigmansteve, on 10/12/2007, -6/+108This is not NEW and would you stop using "addicting" in every title.
  • snurfle, on 10/12/2007, -3/+33Hi, Tony!
  • mrdudeman, on 10/12/2007, -7/+32My name is Tony, and I'm 24, single, and addicted to the internet game: Snowball.
  • trogdor282, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19More importantly, it's not polite to inquire about the size of one's ball!
  • blackb0x, on 10/12/2007, -4/+17stop being addicting
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18You may not, but everyone else does.
  • gzim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11You know people only get those "massive records" because they hack the game. Notice some fishy names? "FixYourCode"? Why are they all the same score? Because thats the highest number it can hold.
  • Sonic_Molson, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11reminds me of Ski.
  • diggmaddy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+13full screen

  • PlasticSolution, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10@ Al3x:

    Did you even read your dictionary link? "Addicting" is a transitive verb, as in, "Cocaine is addicting more people every day." "Addictive" is the adjective.
  • deadlierchair, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10SkiFree!!!
  • tpaine, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10except not nearly as cool ... buried as weak sauce
  • Al3x, on 10/12/2007, -16/+24@ SeaBass22
    "Addicting" is a word, it's an adjective...You're an idiot...

    This game reminds me of that downhill ski game that used to come with windows.
  • Tochi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Ok, world of warcraft is addictive, everquest is addictive... this... is not. When was the last time you played one of these "Addictive" flash games for two years or more? When was the last time you lost a girlfriend because she felt "she couldn't compete with that damned flash game"?
  • phatvolvo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9I'm the best snowballer in my hometown!

    uh.. that sounds wrong
  • Crass22, on 10/12/2007, -11/+18But it was on addictinggames.com so it must be addicting.
  • manzk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Ummm.....I don't think you're in the right digg story.....and your comment just looks like spam anyway
  • portilaj, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7God I loved SkiFree. Wow. That's a wierd thing to suddenly remember.
  • zodieman, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Geebus this drives me nuts.. It's "addictive" not "addicting". Where the hell you guys learn to spell anyway?
  • Scooter1974, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5They clicked the "digg it" button :P
  • geuisteses, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6flash-based katamari would be AWESOME
  • treed, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5It's like Katamari Damacy meets Skifree.
  • MrTea, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4PROTIP: eat snowmen!
  • ahdustin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+43281: here's how to get it

    You can guide your snowball over to the right side of the screen. When you get close, tap the right key until your snowball actually goes farther than the width of the game. You can ski down a long time and just keep tapping over to stay off the course. As you get really big you start to fill up onto the screen and eventually you will run into a house, but very easy way to get big scores.
  • Supertrout, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9@Ragtime333
    I found out a neat trick to turn off the sound. Around somewhere on your desk there you will find two boxes. They typically have some kind of mesh on the front. You may see wire coming out of the said boxes. You will see a group of knobs. Look for the one labeled volume....
  • DreadPirateWes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@Tochi

    Dude...that's really sad.
  • marnaq, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3(Spoiler) Loved the monster eating the skier at the end.
  • fr0z3nph03n1x, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3This game has sound track from the anime Bleach in it if anyone wanted to know.
  • poracious, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Hands up who managed to avoid the abominable snowman.

    If you avoided him for long enough, the game looped and you were set up the very top again, able to go down once more.
  • harperjs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3yeah- it's ski plus momentum minus the cool jumps and abominable snowman that ate you when you were doing good.
  • nletourneau, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4nah, only about 526 addictive things
    http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Adigg.com+intitle%3Aaddictive
  • se1zure, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3yeah, i tried this flash contest to win a ds, and the high scores were all 999,999,999,999 even though thats not a possible score to achive.

    so i didn't win.
  • evilTak, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4@Ragtime333

    If you're on windows: http://virtuelvis.com/archives/2005/04/flashmute
  • rnelsonee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Never mind - apparently "World Champion" award is not correct - maybe it's based on IP range or something.

    And you're right -- 2147483647 is 0x7FFFFFFF in hex - the highest value for signed 32-bit number (clearly they should've used unsigned to get a max of 4294967295)
  • kadio, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6@Al3x: You're thinking of Ski Free
  • dcoolidge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Stupid work and blocking of gaming sites...
  • Ansible, on 10/12/2007, -5/+7Argh, its ADDICTIVE, not addicting, people.
  • undersky, on 10/12/2007, -1/+32000+
  • dressedindecay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Sweet, I broke the national record on my first try.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I really wish it'd keep your TOP score instead of what you end with. I was up to over 2500, but then I hit trees, and only got back to 1900. Anyway, fun game.
  • Thater, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3http://www.transbuddha.com/mediaHolder.php?id=1488
  • DreadPirateWes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yeah but I'd still rather not encourage them by driving traffic to their site. How else are they going to get the point to knock it off?
  • agalis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+22199
  • anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Pft that's why you don't work, man!
  • greymaxcat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2This has got to be the lamest game ever...

    It is addicting though...
  • CobolNoFun, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1http://ski.ihoc.net/#download there is where to Get skifree.... and there are 3 "abominable???" snowman to beat before you start over
  • rnelsonee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I don't know, I currently have the record (as "beer"), and I tried maybe 5 times. But yeah, by the time I finish posting this, I'm sure it'll be gone. Unless is some thing in the game to make you feel good.... I almost never make these top 10 lists.
  • mweflen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2

    Plus, it lists "addicting" as a transitive verb, i.e., the process of addicting, not for an adjective (the quality of being addictive), as you state.
  • DreadPirateWes, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/armorgames.com

    "When we tested this site we found links to zango.com, which we found to be a distributor of downloads some people consider adware, spyware or other unwanted programs."
  • blackrainbown, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Kinda like Katamari Damacy, only, well, lame.
