When i first bought Warcraft III; i played it 40 hours over a three day span.
Blood is driping from the veins
Of all the enemies that I have slain
As I see their eyes turn to black
The remourse for killing is all I lack

Warcraft 2 was much better in my opinion.

No, the worst Pc games ever are, collectively, universally, and absolutely, the Battlecruiser series. In my foolish youth I purchased one, and the spinning cd created a sucking so powerful that it ripped the fabric of reality asunder. Nothing I tried could stop it's sheer negative force, until in despair I sacrificed my Tie Fighter Collector's cd into the void. Pure good cancelled pure evil, though the resulting matter/anti-matter like explosion rendered me a vegetable for months.
Maybe if you know your true love is about to move away to college or something, you can stick this shit in the stereo and make the moment last while at the same time listening to pussies whine about bitch shit. Just like you.

Ok, so maybe it's not the worst, I'm just saying I didn't like it, and I'm not saying that because I suck at it because I don't.

You probally do, because if you don't like it why would you play it more and get good at it?

Anybody ever play Impossible Creatures?

I think the limit is set when your hours spent are inversely proportional to your GPA due to your lack of studying.

lol. This week I nearly failed to hand in an IPT assignment because I bought Sudeki on Sunday night, and spent from 4pm to 11pm playing it everyday.
It was fun, but it leaves you disapointed when you buy a game and finish it in 4 days.

I spend about an hour a day on weekends and 2-3 hours a day on weekends. When I first get a game I play them whenever I can but other than that, I don't spend much time gaming.
