Yeah, WoW. It's a beast.

According to Nielsen, for 2008:
1. World of Warcraft (Blizzard)
- 671 minutes per week (0.723% of gamers)

That's about 11 hours a week, or ~24 days a year. The game has been out for over 4 years, and currently has 11.5mil subscribers.

It'd be hard to estimate with this data, but I think WoW should have passed a million years of playtime by now. If not now, it'll pass it this year, easily - if people play the game in the rest of the world as much as the US, we're currently looking at a play rate of over 14,000 years per week. Oh, god...

Wow and Halo 3 are both online behemoths.

So much time!

Imagine if those 1 million hours had been invested in Science instead. (Especially because so many nerds play the game.)

We would all be cruising around in flying cars about now.

Damn you World of Warcraft! Holding us back!

That is a lot of years. Glad I could contribute to it! I wish that it could beat WoW but that is sadly very impossible.

I wonder how many of those days are "Called Out Sick" Days

COD4 is probably abit longer then that

both consoles combined, probably. If you include the PC also, then that's a certainty.

wow awesome!

Awesome. I contributed to .001% of that haha.
