How do I find a complete list of Steam games?

[Wynter]

Ive heard in total theres hundred of millions, maybe billions (sorry I dont have an exact figure), of games on Steam, most of which have never even been played just sitting there in limbo. How do I find these games as my Steam cqtalog only shows 10,000 pages of games at the most and that must only account for a mere fraction of the games on steam?

Forbs has an article on Steam games and the unplayed amount as well the amount its a huge amount unplayed games. Other than i dont know how to get that quota maybe someone else does :)

Note where it says "Many of steam's registered 781 million games have never been played".

That article was from 2014, so I assume the figure is much higher now.

That refers to the number of games owned by players. Not the number of different games on Steam.

Ah ok sorry, but they should've said sales of games to make it clear thats what they were talking about

We're at 30k that's visible from search, those that without store, is about less than 1400.
https://store.steampowered.com/search/?category1=998

Store page > Click on the magnifying glass that's in the search > Filter by games.

This includes all games that has a store page, games that coming out later time, games removed from sale, and still have store page, and games that's for sale.

My apologies I just got excited when Steam appeared to have its very own deep web with millions more games hidden from the standard search.

The Forbes article doesn't do a good job of explaining it, but the Ars Technica article that Forbes pulled info from does a much better job.

Right now, I can tell you that about 37 percent of the roughly 781 million games registered to various Steam accounts haven’t even been loaded a single time. I can tell you that Steam users have put an aggregate of about 3.8 billion hours into Dota 2. I can tell you that Steam users tend to put nearly 600 percent more time into the multiplayer mode on Modern Warfare 2 than the single player mode.
