Dominion...

Dominion is a text-based strategy-game, but let me warn you, It WILL take over your life (setting the alarm for 03:00 in order to send your forces to take over another player's territory, training soldiers etc...)!!!
You can google for it or find it at www.kamikazegames.com , DEFINATELY worth while (It'll only use about 1MB per hour if you switch off automatic picture-loading)

Guild Wars is very bandwidth-and-latency friendly.
About 2-3MB an hour. Is playable on 56k and GPRS.

Bullsh1t... The WOW updates can be as much as 350MB.

Lowest alround MMORPG is Runescape

I wasn't talking about WoW.

Thats a different game to Warcraft. A lot of people play DotA, the Warcraft map... It has very low usage and its very bandwidth/latency friendly.

Updates.. are well the 2mb map and occasionally 50mb updates to Warcraft, not that often anymore though.

Guild Wars is very bandwidth-and-latency friendly.
About 2-3MB an hour. Is playable on 56k and GPRS.

The actual game bandwidth is nice, but the updates and entering new maps for the first time are killer... in a bad way.
Of course if this is your life, like it is many peoples.. then the few 100 mb's isn't all that bad over a year or so..

COD4 doesn't use much compared to the newer ones.

Starcraft 2 uses very little cap. About 1 or 5 megs max a hour. Also plays perfectly on 3G.
