Could be a console startup, title screen, intro cutscene, etc. I just got wired off an energy drink so I apologize in advance if this post is unhinged.
I personally associate it with Kirby Super Star’s intro, the Sega CD boot screen (non-US, I associate the US ones with Christmas), and the original Xbox startup.
Civilization IV
Baba Yetu is such a banger
Halo CE, BF2 and WoW
Definitely tf2
Usually community servers are empty but pub players are practically infinite

Command and conquer : red alert
Diablo (the original)
Minecraft, though it’s because I usually open it after sunrise if I’m still awake. most of the time if I’m up all night I’m really deep into surfing the web to the point of like, obscure sites about aliens or something.
Minecraft, satisfactory, factorio are ones that come to mind that keep me up too late as an adult. The TES games are ones I remember from my childhood. Morrowind was my jam back in the day, as was NWN.

The opening rant of Kaine refers to something in the late game and it’s soulcrushing, but I love it and how they chose to scream at you on the first launch of the game when you don’t even know who’s speaking. That sets the tone.

Civ 3,4,5 for one …more… turn. Or for the PlayStation boot sequence loading into MG:S for the 14th play-through.

None. I get hit hard by melatonin and can’t stay up no matter how jazzed I am playing a game. Latest for me was probably like 1:30a and Resident Evil or Tomb Raider. I do remember sleep overs where a friend was still playing when I woke up. Don’t remember the game though … probably Final Fantasy VII.
none. staying up past sunrise is insane. even for work
