Playing through all my Steam games!

[Satyrion]

So i have this thing where i must play through the cmapiagn/story of ALL games i buy, even if i hate it. When i finihsed i game i put it in a catagory named completed, so i keep a good track of which games am done with amd which games i have left to play. So far ive played through 94 of my games.

Is there anyone else doing this? :P

Yup. On my main steam account. And to add to that I have to play a series in order, the upside to this is that things like Max Payne 3 (etc) have dropped in price before I get to them.

On this (my indie bundle) account I am at least trying all the games for a few hours, I've found I enjoy point and click games more than I thought I would.

thats awesome man, i have to play all my games in order as well. Like i cant play the new tomb raider game before am finished with all the older ones even though its a reboot LOL. Same goes for every game unless its not on steam like Fable 2 for example.

I also ONLY play games on steam, if the game is not on Steam i refuse to play it like BF4 for example :)

Not really. Actually, not at all. There's a "ToDo" list of games that I want to play (conceptually, anyway -- I'm not actually making a written list), and that's about it.

If I play a game, and it sucks, then I just leave it at that. Why should I continue it?

Same if it gets too hard, too annoying, too tedious, too "whatever" to continue. I'll just rate it as a game that starts out nice but fails in the long run.

There's also a lot of games that just came along with a bundle, but I have no intention of playing. Again, there's so many games that I *want* to play, why would I play games that I'm not interested in?

OH I do this. There are 2 games I started and did not like and will not go back and do but 2 out of 140 some games is not bad.

Hell I have gone one step further. I have an excel program which lists each game I purchased or have gotten as a gift....I then have a column in which the cost of each game goes. I then have it total the amount I have paid, it also divides that total by the number of games and gives me the average cost of each game. Which right now for my 140 some games is $3.89.

I then have a column in which I put the total amount of time played for each individual game the program then takes the total amount I paid and divides it to give me a total of how much it costs me per hour to play those games. I am at 2300 hrs total played, and it works out to like 24 cents per hour.

I currently have 450 games, and I'd wager I've only played a couple hundred of them...

I'm addicted to bundles.

"10 games for 3 dollars? I don't care what they are, give me them!"

Hehe... every once in a while I consider doing that too -- mostly because for that amount of money it's not really "worth it" to look into every game to decide whether or not to get the bundle.

Still haven't started doing it, though

This is the reason I started a new account for bundle games.
At least my OCD can live on unhindered on my main account.
