    Stop being a heartless bastard.

    In other news, thank you to the person who gifted me Alan Wake.

    187 games, I counted 39 that I had played a lot or whatever, and around 10 in progress.


    I've had some bad habits in the past with steam sales, and I'm much better now, but remember a lot of the ones I haven't played came in packs where I only wanted one or two of the games, plus the total number includes things like team fortress beta and expansion packs.

    Ah, there's that Civilization Bundle I was waiting for in order to make up for all my past piracy (if only partially) of the series. Looks like everything but the Civ 5 expansion that recently came out (and no I or II of course).

    On the proviso that it's $5, can someone in the US please gift me Bulletstorm and I'll paypal them the money or put it in their steam wallet please?

    We can also work out a cash/likes package, if preferable.

    You own 171 games worth: $1,895.73 USD - What does this number mean?
    If you bought all these games on sale it would have cost: $512.97 USD
    You spend an average of $11.09 USD ($3.00 USD) per game.

    :negativeman:

    I've only played 12 of those games.

    ARMA II was the last thing on my wishlist, almost solely because of the DAYZ mod, and now I have it. Cheers, Steam, it's been a good Summer.

    I'm considering getting arma 2 for the DayZ mod but it seems kind of retarded to pay 18 bucks for a buggy mod that's in alpha so I'm not sure.

    Unless you've got friends, I can't see it being much fun tbh. I've heard it can be hours or just running around. If you do have friends to play with...

    I got it for that, and have yet to get the mod to work. As a fan of the Operation Flashpoint games (Bohemia made the original) I'm looking forward to playing the actual game too.

    ARMA 3 is on the way, and by the end of the year there should be a Day Z standalone out. As well as The War Z which is an MMOFPS survival-horror-like, similar to Day Z. So I wouldn't really encourage anyone else to buy arma2 at this point.

    That's what I figured. I did enjoy the first game years ago and I've spent $5 on crappier things before.

    If you can ignore the fact that the story is nowhere near on the level of the first game, Bioshock 2 is a really fun game.

    Amnesia on the other hand is incredible in every aspect.

    I played the fuck out of Costume Quest but I never finished the other two. I'm sure I'll get back on them eventually.
