What's your most played game on Steam (in hours)

[Arkive86]

The last time I checked these stats was over three years ago. I thought it might be fun to compare them, so here’s what I said in an old, similar thread:

My top 5!

1: Team Fortress 2 (319 hours)
2: Garry’s Mod (267 hours)
3: Planetside 2 (124 hours)
4: Counter-Strike: Source (106 hours)
5: TrackMania 2: Canyon (105 hours)

Let me just point out, though, that if I took my playtime in all TM2 games plus TMU and put it together (excluding my time in TMN and when I just used ManiaPlanetLauncher.exe), that totals to 295 hours of TrackMania. Yes, I am addicted to those games.

Now then, for the current top 5.

5: In fifth place lies TrackMania 2: Stadium with 246 hours! As someone who’s still active in the TM2 community, it’s no surprise that the most popular of the four TM2 titles lands in my top 5.

4: In fourth comes Tower Unite! I’ve got 273 hours clocked on it. Whether that’s a lot or a pitiful amount is up to you.

3: Our bronze trophy goes to Garry’s Mod with 280 hours, just barely edging out TU. I had over 100 hours on GMT, but just messing around with the rest of what Gmod has to offer played no small part in the total either.

2: TrackMania 2: Valley gets the silver trophy with 320 hours on record! This one is my favorite environment in the entire series since it’s got an incredibly fun to drive vehicle and the best looking vanilla scenery you’ve seen. If only one TM2 title was allowed on this list, then PlanetSide 2 and its 129 hour record would have taken fifth; other TM titles still ahead of it include TrackMania United as well as TM2 Lagoon, Canyon, and Stadium!

1: Finally, in our top spot lies Team Fortress 2. 347 hours are logged from me; that’s no surprise, it ran well on bad hardware and you can’t argue with the price of free (especially for a game like that). I still hop on it once in a blue moon.

Now for some fun facts!

• If we combined all the TrackMania titles together, the series has a total of 1,230 hours logged by me! That’s excluding any time I played via the standalone ManiaPlanet, which isn’t through Steam, and totals to an increase of 935 hours since my three year old post.
• Two games made it back to the top 5, and neither gained many more hours over the past three years.
• Honourable non-TrackMania mentions include PlanetSide 2 (129 hours, as stated before), Counter-Strike: Source (106 hours, on the previous top 5), Arma 3 (104 hours), Insurgency (81 hours), and Crypt of the Necrodancer (66 hours and a dumb milk mod).
