Steam not tracking hours properly?
Every time I check my library or my profile, the hours are completely different. From my observations so far every game's time played changes every time I reload the library. I saw Fallout 3 jumping from 20-30 hours played, Batman 9-120 minutes, GTA IV EFLC 6-10 hours. My total changes from 50-55 hours this whole week even though I played way more than 5 hours past 3 days. Whats wrong?

My hours are all messed up too. It seems to have added about forty hours to every game I have played.

Also from doing a bit of lurking around it looks like the 2 week time played on your profile is an average for the last 2 weeks.

all of mine are messed up too :I
I think it has something to do with the time of a game you're currently playing. Because my fallout hours were 29. I played Towns for 2 hours and now its 32 hours. My GTA EFLC hours were 8 now they're 11.
Recently all my games went to 0 hours now they're doing the same and going up by 20hours a day which is really weird..

Lol, I hope they fix it. I like having a reliable time played tracking system because it gives me a sense of progress, similar thing with achievements where they make you explore the game instead of sticking to what works.

If you go to your profile it's still accurate so use that until VALVe fixes it.
