Games in general last me an absolute maximum of 2 weeks. Even Oblivion took less than that.
UT on the other hand I played from day of release intermitently until 2003 came out. I played that until 2004 came out, and currently still play UT2004 - although from time to time return to UT99.
I try to branch out into other games and other genres but always find myself come crawling back to epic's masterpiece.

True, I've moved several times (Guild Wars, World of Warcraft, CSS), yet always end up back in UT2004. The players are just... different there, that's why it's more enjoyable.
2k3 was lame w/o assault, so i didn't bother buying it.
Wasn't the best but it was good enough for a fix while awaiting 2004 if you're a connoisseur of curiosities and just can't leave the UT universe alone.
I have them all, even though I'm in fact more of a console/rpg/adventure gamer.
I've never liked shooters, only tried out the original UT when we had just got a broadband connection and I borrowed it from my brother so I could check out online play.. now I find myself, years later, eagerly anticipating the next game in the series.
I still don't like shooters in general, spend a lot of time playing games like Oblivion, FFXII and Tomb Raider: Anniversary atm, and if I end up not liking UT3 (I will get it either way, for modding purposes) I will probably quit online gaming and end up not touching another shooter for years.. but somehow I doubt this will happen, it's kinda unreal.
I remember downloading the UT99 demo overnight from a slow as dirt dial up modem. After that, I was hooked like crack. Went back and played the original Unreal somewhere in there as well.
My favorite game in the series was UT2k3, but they are all great.
I played the original UT and was ranked 9th overall. I was ranked 7th in capture the flag and 3rd in Donination. I went by the name Antoski. I lost many girlfriends because of UT
