Subject: Re:Most amount of time put into a single videogame and which one?
About a month of pure TF2. Other than that I'm gaming less and less, it takes something truly amazing to keep interested in playing video-games these days (like Fallout 3, Red Dead Redemption, Okami, Metroid Prime
Sonic, Mario, etc).

Subject: Most amount of time put into a single videogame and which one?
An atrocious amount of time with WoW - I stopped checking in the mid 100's, but it wouldn't surprise me if I totalled up my alts and ended up at over 200 *days* played (actually, I'm almost certain it's above that between just my main and my primary alt). Can't say it was all spent at the keyboard (Any horde remember the old-school flight to MC?), but it's still rather remarkable.
Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas are probably hovering between 60 and 100 hours - they're blending together a little bit so I'm not sure how much time total.
GTA's were worth an EASY 30 hour each, probably closer to 50.
Played through FF6 and FF7 several times to the tune of 20-30 hours a pop.
Ooo...Civ IV. Geeze, I have no idea on this one. Games usually take 15-20 hours a shot (Marathon ftw!) and I've played god knows how many over the years.
And you know what? I don't consider a minute of any of it wasted!

I'm not like them, but I can pretend.
Observations on complex unit wound allocation: If you're feeling screwed, your opponent is probably doing it right.
