My longest Civ game was probably in the hundreds of hours. I mostly play on faster settings, though, as it gets tedious having to wait 100+ turns to build anything. But, yeah, I was joking, just sort of commenting on how we think about games has changed in the interim. This particular game was supposed to be ridiculous; unbelievably complex and unbelievably long. But, modern computer-based strategy games are even more complex and their length isn't actually that far off. And, of course MMOs are a single game that run much longer than 1600 hours for most players. I don't even play MMOs much, and I'm certain I've logged more than 1600 hours playing a single game.
