most played games of all time a rough guess list
likely 100 hours or more
likely 100 hours or more
number one with a bullet at 440 hours on switch
currently 119 but if this doesn't shoot up over 200 hours before long I'd be shocked
I'm guessing this is pretty high up as well based on how it was a go to multiplayer game for many years, plus some significant time on solo races as well
number one on my steam counter clockin in at 185 hours
139 hours
132 hours
129 hours
this time was bloated a bit because I spent so much of the game playing on a laptop that basically couldn't handle it and after a certain point the load times became so ridiculous that I started playing other games waiting for it to load. by the end I got to the point where I said fuck it and built a pc strong enough to play it.
I finished this 3 times and I believe I put at least 40 hours into each, mass effect 2 is also possible but I only finished that twice so it probably misses the cut
I recall spending so much time just wandering around doing nothing and still enjoying just exploring the world that I'd be shocked if it isn't up here somewhere, plus I've replayed some portion of it once or twice over the years
I'm guessing this could be a possible number 2 based on how many hours I spent "playing" by just running simulated seasons over and over again with the occasional bit of playing the actual baseball mixed in
I am guessing this is somwhere up here
these next three are the games I played most as a kid so I'm guessing they are here somewhere based on the many years I would have a random bored saturday morning where I would bust one or all of them out and play for several hours
most likely of these three I'm guessin
either this or goldeneye or maybe both probably are up here somewhere but if I had to guess I'd say perfect dark is more likely to make this list between the many hours of co-op mode vs mode and single player too
my wrestling enjoyment was fueled by how much I fuckin loved these games they gotta be here somewhere
these are the pc games I played most during the times I always had a just decent enough to run games, i don't know if I actually hit a hundred hours in any of them but I might have?
most likely of these I'm guessing
of the gtas I spent the most time fucking around in 3
there was a summer where this game was both a multiplayer main option and a single player go to for me and I've also busted it out a few more times over the years it's still so fucking good
about 120 hours each for these persona games if I recall, and that fucking blows up if you add the time spent watching the endurance run for 4
109 hours
hundred something hours
I certainly wouldn't be surprised if this made the cut at over 100 hours, though it's not a sure thing
between finishing it once almost finishing it a second time and having to restart one of those playthroughs after getting about half way and having a bug making me unable to progress I definitely dropped over 100 hours on this one, not to mention the times i started other characters. one of my playthroughs hour counter bugged out and says I've been playing the game 24 hours a day every day since the mid 1800s if I recall
put in 112 hours but this game gets the distinction of being the game I least like on this list. It's good, just not the all time favorite most of these others are.
so much golf, bowling, and a bit of baseball solo and multiplayer could have this up here
maybe
very possible
this is maybe my most played multiplayer game of all time? certainly very possible it's up here
