Free games whenever It's someone Birthday or just notify friends when it's someone Birthday
Ok OK OK OK and OK I know it sound stupid when you are reading the title BUT THIS IS MY idea or opinion. So my B-day is coming next month (20th July) and I was wondering if you guys can update your steam and whenever it's someone B-day you can choose ONLY ONE game for free. Like games from your wish wishlist that you really ever WANTED IN YOUR WHOLE LIFE :D.
It sound very cool for me, but I think it might sound stupid for you guys, but again it's my idea and so.

My other ideas is that when it's someone B-day steam will notify you that it's your friend B-day and maybe could send him a gift a card? Like SKYPE :D. Well you just tell your friends like ''HEY I SEE STEAM NOTIFY ME THAT IT"S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY! :D SO HAPPY B-DAY.'' Like that just to make your friend Happy (which is always nice to say someone ''Happy B-day'' just to make that person happy and smile :D )

Well, that all for now I hope you find this very useful.

Have a GREAT DAY EVERYONE! :D \o/

Comment down below of what you thinking. :D

And how do publishers make money from this free games thing?

No.

Steam is a global store.

Valve will not give you free games, you can gain those in event participation.

Well, I mean I see your point. Look I know it a diffuclt time for me if I ever wanted a game so badly, and it very expensive here in my country (you can see that on my profile). But I heard a lot of people want games so badly but are broke. Can't we just made ONE/1 game for free whenever it's someone B-day just to make that person HAPPY. I get this many times so...

Well, the publisher still making money tho, it not like 1 day and didn't recieve any money. Gamers buy games EVERYDAY and EVERY YEAR, MILLIONS OF THEM, NONE STOPPING. I know some of us are poor and someone of us are rich.

Let just say we just want to make a person at least happy :D

Your chances of winning in this event are very low.

to easy to abuse

Tomorrow is MY birthday - along with about another 20 million Steam users.

That's a lot of expensive presents!

Daily free thread, huh?

Free weeks/weekends and games free for a limited time are already a thing devs/pubs can do.

Do you have any idea how many steam accounts there are? I don't, last time I checked it was like FIFTEEN MILLION. It's probably higher now, but even if not, that is FIFTEEN MILLION GAMES per year. "Just one game". No, its millions of games per year. Also, let me make 365 accounts, each with a different birthday...

How is that relevant? See, it is always super easy to give away money that is not yours.

At least? What? Hey, western union? Give me money on my birthday, make me at least happy.

Seriously, did you put any thought into this? I mean beyond "I want free stuff"?

So tired of all these people begging for free stuff. This is a platform that facilitates video games, not a social network, neither a charity !

Anybody want me to tell him when is my birthday so he can buy me a Ferrari ?

I'll take care of that Ferrari. As soon as western union comes through with my Bday money.

Gaming is an expensive hobby , and you and only you are responsible for meeting the requirements for your hobby, if ya can't afford it, then tough luck. Steam is a store, period, walk in any store of any kind and claim it's your birthday and you want free stuff, you'd most likely get kicked out..

And who's gonna pay for it? steam? publishers? developers? People should pay for YOUR gaming experience?

People buy houses everyday and every year, millions of them non-stop, so following that logic, it's ok for real estate agents to just hand out houses someone put up there for sale right?
