What do you think is the most 'profitable' game? As in, what game can you make the most money off of? Obviously, CS:GO is one of the most controversial due to the money spent/profit ratio. What are your opinions? :3  

Entropia Universe, it's a 3d MMO which mixes in real money with the virtual currency.

A player once sold a virtual resort on it for $635 thousand USD.

It also contains an area that's player ran and has a net worth of $1 million USD.

Any online game can be fairly profitable if you make wise trading decisions. The HDTV I currently use as my main monitor came purely from selling stuff in an online game.

I didn't spend a cent of my own money on it. lol  

RuneScape.

Some guy found an invincibility glitch and used it to attack a monster with a good drop table.
He created 30+ accounts to do this and created a macro whilst he was at it.

A 15 year old kid made much upwards of $50,000 in a month.

One of the moderators was recently fired due to coding a special program in-game just for him.
Many suspect that this was to spawn runescape money to sell in real life, as the prices of gold had dropped considerably.
He also posted a facebook picture of a nice new car, much nicer than any other Runescape/Jagex employees.

Don't think you're fully understanding how this game works.

Within the Entropia Universe you actually have the option to play in 6 different full sized planets created by other game developing companies, each of these planets plays differently as to create six different MMORPG's in one single universe.

In 2009 Planet Calypso had a $422 million USD turnover, so how's that for absolute trash?

Stop judging by graphics and go look at the gameplay this is one of the most in depth virtual reality games out there.

Another game I make money off of is Order and Chaos online the mobile WoW clone, I've made over $300 just by levelling really quickly and selling the account but since I'm a bit busy I haven't done it much recently, any MMO can be profitable by power levelling for lazy people.  

I'd say Team Fortress 2 to a degree. Mabinogi can be profitable if you can get lucky, considering 10mil is around 50 and you could get incredibly luck with drops

Yes, it has combat and PvP.

Players who start their character on Planet Arkadia are rewarded with fighting equipment and the military rank of Private which shows a sense of militaristic gameplay, but you do not need to do this in order to play in a combat environment as combat is found on nearly every planet.

Anyone who wishes to play this game should know that in order to advance later on chances are you'll have to spend a few bucks but you can still do it free2play it will just take much longer and be a lot harder.

Any idea on how long it will take to download on a 1.2Mb DL speed?

Well the thing about Entropia Universe is each planet is basically its own game and so you have to download each planet individually however you don't need to download them all and you can choose which planets you want, the Entropia Universe client its self is a pretty quick download so just download that and read about the planets and pick a planet you like and download that, the time really depends on how large and in depth the planet is.

The mobile market is probably more profitable due to the low production quality required, and the size of the market.
