A couple of years ago I started writing a simple tile-based game engine 
(think overhead-view like Ultima V... actually, I was using the sprites from 
Ultima V as textures :-) entirely in Python.

It was running at an acceptable speed even on lousy hardware (8MB ATI Rage 
Mobility-P in my old Pentium II 233MHz laptop).

I know several commercial games, such as Freedom Force, use Python for 
scripting, but I'm pretty sure the main engine is entirely C/C++.
