    Hmm, of all time? Thats kinda hard, the best fitting one I could say would have to be a series and not an individual game. The series being the excellant Civilization series of course.

    Counterstrike is #1 all-time( a mod for Half-Life, for all you n00bs )
    But M:TW and S:TW come in a close second, very close.
    I don't wanna get off on a rant here but............That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

    Command, come in. Have arrived in Venice, streets filled with water. Please advise.

    No discussion: There was no game which I have played for so a long time like the Total War series. I am an TW maniac.

    1. Panzer General

    2. East Front & West Front

    3. MTW

    Just never have been much of an RTS fan I guess. 1 & 2 are dated but I still dust them off and play them once in awhile. Man, if I could get back all the hours I've spent on just these 3 I probably could have earned several degrees by now.

    Harpoon - the classic naval warfare strategy game. The older version first made for the Apple Macintosh was simple to learn and fun to play. The later versions for Windows just made the user interface more complex and took the fun out of playing the game. I have seen articles that a new version is in development, hope it goes back to the playing experience of the original.

    My favorite (base on the amount of time i spent for the game):

    1) Romance of the Three Kingdoms 3. From 1990 to 1999 (when STW came out). I still have a 486 PC to run the game but haven't had extra time to go back. Actually, the time I spent on it decline a little when XCOM: Apocalypse came out in 1997.

    2) STW + MTW: 1999 to now and keep on going. Looks like this series will take the first place soon. One of the only 2 games (or game series) that I join a forum and play MP.

    3) Operation Flashpoint (CWC/RH/RES). 2000 to now and still going but way behind MTW. Also so join a forum and play some MP but not as much as STW. However, I play lots of LAN games (co-op) with my brother and my cousin.

    4) XCOM: Apocalypse. 1997 to 2000 (when Op Flash came out).

    I played many other games, but most of them are forgotten once I am through. Somes, I even abandoned half way through.
