But Half Life Mods on Dreamcast are singleplayer. There is no TFC or HLDM there. Truth be told, I am glad Steam wasnt around during my heavy TFC days. Same with Xfire. Though Xfire does show me with 1500+ hours in Mame32.

Yeah, I wonder how much time I logged into TFC. Says I only have 2 hours, because I've barely touched it in years. But I used to play TFC competitively, before steam even existed, much less tracked the time.

I'd be surprised if it was less than 1500 hours.

Same here Violent. I remember when Gamespy Arcade had a game time counter and I maxed it out at 999 hours in a semester. Man college was great.

Same. It's been a long time since I played it, so I only have 2.7 hours logged. But I probably have about a 1000 just from how much we played it in the Gamers club in college.

I have 300 hours in TF2 alone, and I never played it anywhere near the degree of TFC. I would often just hang out in servers talking to clan mates, not even really playing. It's certainly in the thousands.

I probably logged about 1k-2k hours in CS if we factor in LAN gaming.

Sickeningly enough, I logged over 6000 hours in Starcraft 2 from 2011-2012. I realized I was addicted to it and haven't touched it almost two years.

My Counter Strike numbers were probably scary high when I was in high school, before they ruined it with 1.6.

Nah, though I made a decent showing at a few online tournaments. I lived and breathed that game, night and day, before and after work. Very happy that I decided to step away for good though, considering what it was doing to my "social life".

I played SC2 a lot myself, some great times.
