Good lord, you're an addict!

*koss looks at his hours on payday*

...Nevermind.
I remember when I looked at the hours on my most-played Oblivion character and saw three digits. 120 hours I believe, and that was on the Xbox 360 version, so just the official expansions.

I've got about 125+ hours for my Pokemon Omicron run, though that's also possibly because the timer still counts even if the game loses focus(which appears to pause other stuff), which happens all the time when I work screenshots and typing.

Oberic was being a douche and corrupting the land around my cities. So I formed up a mob of Elite Halfling Slingers[Had an Altar of Battle in my capital] to go take out his fortress and kill him directly. Thing is, Halflings don't have access to any naval units better then a Trireme and Life magic doesn't have any way to directly cross water. But they DO have Plane Shift. So I Plane Shifted my Slingers onto the other plane and walked them over to the tile that corresponds to the one right next to his capital. Then I Plane Shift them back over. Surprise. I send them in blind, without looking to see what units he had defending his city. Bad idea. He had a bunch of giant fire breathing beetles and some magicians[Who are immune to the Halfling machine gunsslings]. I took out two of the beetles while Oberic and his magicians left me with only two slingers left. So I said "Screw it" and attacked him with the slingers in melee, after buffing them with Invulnerability and Prayer. Around 2 real-time minutes[Since neither side can deal more then one or two points of damage to each other, and that's on a lucky hit] later, all his units besides two beetles are gone and both my slingers are really injured. It doesn't look good. Then I remember that I have healing. Two spells brings both slingers back to full health. Cue lengthy beatdown. Once the beetles are finally dead, I destroy Oberic and win the game.

The trick is adamantine halfling slingers. They slaughter everything.  :D

I managed to seize control of Alaska  with my army of robots and rebuild it into a highly-efficient utopia where robots and humans live in harmony. I became hailed as a visionary leader and there were multiple revolutions all over the world following my example of a robot based government.

This went much better than my line of anatomically-correct sexbots that became overly self-aware and enslaved the human race. Ended better too.

I have 136 hours logged on Magicka, and 91 hours on X-COM: Enemy Unknown/Within.
Everything else I rather short. Under 30 hours, usually. (For the ones I actually enjoyed, that is. I have a bunch of games with less than an hour on it, or maybe up to 2.)

Granted, the Magicka one was because it was the first game I ever got on Steam, so it was pretty much the only thing I had to play at the time.

Skyrim. My favourite play style in Skyrim is stealth hunting. Damage bonuses from stealth are pretty OP, because you can basically one-shot most people even at low levels.

Anyway, I shoot a bandit in his own fort. Instant kill. His friend ran up to the bandit's corpse. Twang, dead. His friend runs up. Twang dead. A few bandits later, I ran out of things to shoot.

That reminds me of how my brother beat the Goblin Aristocrats.

We always just did perfectly timed stream crossing in the center as they warped in, Ghostbusters style. :P

And yeah, my current XCOM Long War run is at something like 120 hours (with 80 from the last one) and it looks like I might actually finish the game this time! :)

I prefer SAFE mines. The fire does ridiculous amounts of damage for some reason.
