I've noticed that the games that dominate this list every month are very long games designed to suck players into their gameplay loops for hundreds of hours. Nothing wrong with that, but it makes me wonder if there are short games that are very popular, yet get left off of this list just because they end in 10 hours. I would like to see a top 20 list sorted by number of players rather than playtime.
So far I have a habit of playing the same game for longer when I play in short bursts on the train and sometimes bus to work. Games like those probably just work really well for commuting.
