I just found out you can remove wrong options and replenish your attempts by clicking on some of the gibberish. Fuck. I have finished Fallout 3 several times (ironman included) and New Vegas (hardcore) and i just found this out. Maybe i should take tutorials more seriously

Lack of Dota2 on that list makes me suspect it's all made up bullshit. There's no way it's not earning more than TF2 with the player numbers it has.

CrossFire? That shitty free FPS? I tried few of those things (also Combat Arms, Alliance of Valiant Arms and two others that I forgot) and CF was the worst.
Obligatory legion of haxes etc.
Cured me from modern multiplayer FPS games fever.
Paradox - curing something with cancer, such genius.

Few small payments is better than one higher, news at 11.

Counter-Strike Online? I thought that was CSGO?


Just seems to be another way for Valve and partners to fleece money off of the Asian market, since they are much more open to buying items / Microtransactions.

Those numbers seem dubious to me for a few reasons.

1) WoW still has about 7.5 million subscribers. Assuming they all have 6 month passes, that's still about a billion dollars in revenue, and that's not even counting microtransations, new players buying the game and expansions, etc.

2) I refuse to believe TOR is doing that well.

3) As someone else mentioned, no DOTA 2.

These numbers are probably just meant to entice new clients, with all the info about how much the digital games market is growing.

Subscription would not be "free to play". So the WoW numbers would be just people without subscriptions I think (they do a level cap, right?).

Valve is a private company they don't have to release revenue numbers, so if they haven't said how much DOTA has made, no one knows.
