. tropico 4.
did a training, but still clueless!
.
the first few levels of tropico 4 are very simple they walk you through the basics of the mission very well
garages and teamsters are very important. youll have to plan your island in advance somewhat as when you get very populated if you have traffic jams on some important roads your entire economy slows to a crawl as goods can't get delivered to factories/ports for production/sale and you endup a million dollars in debt unable to build anything0 -

Just buy 100 random games and put them in identical envelopes and place some on each table. Everyone gets a random game, could even swap with others at your table.0 -

I don't even want to think how much playtime I've sunk into WoW over the years on and off it.

It's pretty easy to calculate. Just add up your played time for your mains. For me, it would total about 150 days played time over about a four or five year period on and off. Mostly on
When you think about it, it's an absurd amount and only an MMO style game can touch time like that. Even when you aren't actually doing or playing it, you are on it and chatting with your friends and just jumping around Ironforge or Orgrimmar
The "Escape from Mount stupid" episode that reviewed WoW really summed up my experience with the game. By the end of my time with WoW, I didn't actually want to come on and play but felt I had to do it out of obligation because the raid needed me.
Ofcourse I haven't touched it in over two years so, it's a thing of the past for me. I didn't come back to try Cata and I doubt I'll be back for Panda.
I might consider trying it for a few weeks if it launches with a ready made 85....they are running a similar scheme at the moment where if you come back you get a free max level character. All of my old mates keep emailing me with the offer.0 -

I'd be confident in saying my gametime playing cs (Over a 10 year peroid) far exceeds that. Its not even funny how much time some people have put into cs over the years tbh, especially when it was at its peak (For years before wow came out people were putting in those kind of MMO hours into CS). Other than CS, no other game has come close to the time i've put into wow tho.
At a low estimate.... your talking maybe 500+ days played
Im sure there are people with with triple that aswel.
TBH.... even CoD/Halo on the console (And probably CoD4 on PC)... people put in those crazy hours, i know people on my PSN friendslist that have 50-100 days played on each CoD(Each only has like a one year life cycle !).0 -

/played tells me I've played my character for 87 days. Call it 90. That's 2160 hoursI don't even want to think how much playtime I've sunk into WoW over the years on and off it.

I think what makes MMO's unique is the percentage of the user base putting in the mad hours. Millions of people played CS quite alot, myself included. I remember 12 hour marathon sessions of CS but that wasn't every day. But only the seriously dedicated or hardcore spent 8 or 9 hours a day, everyday on it. The type of guys who played clan wars and leagues. Enemy down type stuff.
Thats what seperates the MMO's from the other ultra popular games like Counter-strike and Halo or Cod4. They are played by millions but when they are done, they go to work or go out with their friends or go watch tv. The hardcore "lifers" would only make up a small % of the user base for those games. For the MMO's, everyone was on the loopy train.
In its pomp when wow had 11 million users, I would say over a million were on the addicted train and playing it nonstop, everday.0 -

Not really tho, i played the game much more in my early public days. Public servers used to have the same ppl night after night.
150 days played over 5 years is only really a few hours a day (id say its quite low in comparison to more hardcore players, myself included).
cod has millions of people putting in more hours than that tbh. Wow probably has the highest average played time per year out of any game, but i wouldn't say mmo's are the only games that can touch it. Some shooters/rts games are right up there on the addictiveness scale
