What am I going to be using C++ for?

[Wyredain]

I have been getting cryptic examples of real-world examples C++ can be used for. Can anybody tell me some examples of some high-end applications or games that have used C++?

Majority of computer games and game engines are developed in C++. It is difficult to provide list of all games here but some of them are Doom III engine, Counter Strike, Sierra On-line: Birthright, Hellfire, Football Pro, Bullrider I & II, Trophy Bear, Kings Quest, Antara, Hoyle Card games suite, SWAT, Blizzard: StarCraft, StarCraft: Brood War, Diablo I, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, Warcraft III, World of Warcraft, Starfleet Command, Invictus, PBS's Heritage: Civilization and the Jews, Master of Orion III, CS-XII, MapleStory etc.

Electronic Art's video game engine is coded in c++. All Microsoft's games are written in c++.
