- jamesaguilar 15y agoFor what it is, it's about as close to perfection as you can get. That is what gives it a longevity that other games have a lot of trouble matching. You see this in all genres, though, for example, I have no doubt that if Starcraft were on here, you would see it showing a similar longevity.
