You own 210 games worth: $3,357.09 USD wtf I only started buying games December 2012

Did you buy a lot of bundles? That could skew things a lot. 210 games in six months is kind of insane though, even with bundles. I think my biggest ever splurge was 32 games/expansions for around 150 quid during a Steam sale a few years back (most were cheap Indie titles).

I would have got a few bundles alright but I'd usually only add keys that I would play from them and give the rest away, every game I've bought has being on sale tho so obviously I didn't spend anywhere close to that probably have another 50ish games with different DRM too, what can I say it's being a busy year for me

Over 200 games is still mad!

I've 210 according to Steam and to be honest there are a fair few steaming piles in there that I'd recommend to no one!

its looking like tomorrow that Tomb Raider will be the big game on offer, so I urge all of you to get it. quality game, and far better than the Assassins creed and Hitmans of late IMO.

Is it worth getting Dark Souls on the PC without a Console controller? Played about half way through on the PS3 but other commitments got in the way and never finished it. Really love to get back into it but not if it is crap with the mouse and keyboard.

I highly recommend this for the PC

How do you know?

I went through with it, I got Surgeon Simulator 13...... Boy, is it amazing! I'm struggling to control my hand but my surgical prowess is amazing.



Ribcage is a bit worse for wear, but nicely done if I may say so myself.....

Grab the tweezers and stick them in the plug (to the left)

Apparently the postcards and trading cards are showing the numbers, and since bioshock and chivalry have been one and two, its looking like tomb raider will be tomorrow.

McSasquatch

Vindication! I was shot down for that theory on the Steam forums yesterday. :pac:

So we'll see TR trading cards added as well then. Joy.

Just get Dota, it's free and you can easily put a **** load of hours into it. I've got 600+ hours since February. Had a few 60 hour weeks in February and March.

I think the reason I bought so many is because I used to game on a ps3 and always picked up a good few games for that but since moving to the pc and seeing the price difference I just couldn't resist. Master race indeed

In terms of 2D platformers, you're looking at Braid, Fez, Limbo, Super Meat Boy, Stealth Bastard Deluxe, Trine, Capsized, Mark of the Ninja, VVVVVV, Bit.Trip Runner. Loads really. Check them out first - some are casual, some will have you tearing your hair out.

Best puzzle games would include Antichamber, Spacechem, World of Goo, Crayon Physics Deluxe, even Portal.
