2011
Continuing on from the 2008 Game Time , 2009 Game Time and 2010 Game Time summaries, 2011 Game Time has been added to google docs for further analysis of the GameLogs. The spreadsheet can be organised by total hours to see the winners, or by order entered to get a more historical feel.Top 5 Game Time 2011
| Grepolis | 389 |
| Shogun: Total War 2 | 102 |
| Sengoku | 85 |
| Terraria | 70 |
| Fantasy Wars | 66 |
Grepolis claims another gong for soaking up my attention thoughout a VERY tough year for games while teaching. A couple of huge binges mixed in with consistent demands for my attention. Once again I can put down a lot of that to the guild I was in.
I'm glad Shogun placed up there, as it has been a standout for strategy in the past couple of years. The tactical battles are still much the same, but the overland map and campaign mode has been delightfully enhanced into a tough challenge on legendary mode.
Sengoku fleshed out the Japanese period, but it was really a filler for Crusader Kings II.
Terraria just kept popping up as something to play with Cameron. I'm surprised at the number of hours it racked up, but still happy it made the list for a year it didn't appear in.
Top 5 Game Time 2012
| Stronghold Kingdoms | 523 |
| Football Manager 2012 | 160 |
| Crusader Kings II | 151 |
| Guild Wars 2 | 113 |
| World of Tanks | 90 |
The Grepolis crew moved over to Stronghold Kingdoms and it had the same effect on my game time, leading the count by a considerable margin. Once again the interaction with clanmates and added incentive of Sandy playing along kept this one high on the priority list for a long time.
I'm a little surprised Footy Manager made a return to the top of the list as I'd almost forgotten about the massive stint on this game 6 months after I'd bought it. 2013 version may suffer the same fate.
Crusader Kings II was one of the standouts for the year and kept my attention more than XCOM, Warlock, Fallen Enchantress and Shogun (again) that all just missed the list.
Guild Wars 2 was also buoyed by clanmates, but this time all the local LAN guys as well as the old QGL crew kept the interest up. Sandy continued long after I did, but the time was definitely well spent. New generation of MMO.
World of Tanks did a Terraria to creep into the list from continuous play rather than standout binges. First wins kept it rotating slowly, but the lack of decent multiplyer hampered its ability to become a mainstay of the LAN.
