I don't care about Multiplayer, but for influential, longevity, and repeat play-ability, I have replayed Dues Ex, baldur's gate, and Dungeon keeper in the last two years.

Those games are like good books, I could almost play through them once a year.

And I spent an entire year only playing Civ 4 with Rise of Mankind mod, so yeah..... Shame I didn't have it through steam then, my hours would have been insane. (1100 hours in Civ 5 I don't think would come close to comparing.)

/I did play WoW for like 5 years, so I don't shy away from multiplayer
//Just old enough to remember multiplayer being 4 guys staring a screen yelling "Stop watching my guy you cheater!"
///wasted my freshman year of college playing Halo against the Dorm. First experience with high speed internet. It was glorious.
///First multiplayer experience was the original command and conquer over a dial up. Good times.

My college had to send out a notice to all students in the dorm that they were not allowed to disconnect their computers from the internet and use it on their Xbox instead. We were threatened with punishment if we were caught doing it.

I still did it anyway because the Blood Gulch battles were so much fun.

I'm glad MSU (SMS at the time) never caught on to that.

Cause, as you say, Blood Gulch was a lot of fun.
