The Steam Thread

Figured I would create a thread for Steam talk since it has been taking over the Game Discount thread.

A place to post anything related to Steam:

Steam ID's
Steam News
Game Challenges
Brag About an Achievement
Offers for Trades
Anything that you want to post about the service




(yes, I drank the kool-aid and have become a Steam fanboy)

Since I have started adding to my friends list recently I have been in screens that I never visited before (basically looking through the deals or my library was pretty much it prior).

Saw the complete game list (not from the library screen) which shows all of my games with the time played listed. That made me wonder which game I played the most, and if I would be surprised by it.

Not that anyone cares but here is my top 10 played (in terms of time)...

1) WWSM 2009
2) Plants vs. Zombies
3) FM 2011
4) FM 2010
5) Defense Grid
6) Skyrim
7) Frozen Synapse
8) MLB 2K9
9) Torchlight
10) Blood Bowl

Big surprise when I saw the numbers. WWSM 2009 leads by a wide margin, actually more time than the next two combined. Plants vs. Zombies is an inflated number as my daughters play it. If that is taken out and only my time playing PvZ is taken into account WWSM would probably be more than the next 4 combined.

Amazing that for someone who isn't a soccer guy that three of the top 4 are all from the FM series and that the current version hasn't made the cut yet.

Also shocked that Frozen Synapse ended up as high as it is. That has been from a lot of shorter sessions playing.

Finally up to 7 coals. I'm thinking of crafting them, but probably get a 10% Valve coupon or something. Still probably better odds than the drawing and I'll have more coal by then.

Well decided to craft my 7 coal and got a 75% discount on Empire Total War coupon which they had already gifted me, which I already had anyway.

I found out if you buy a gift to send someone and it is pending that it shows up in your inventory. So I didn't win Pop Cap Complete, it was just the gift I bought had not been accepted yet. darnit

I have:

-50% Valve (doesn't everyone?)
-25% bitComposer

Neither one is worth anything to me, I'll trade for anyone else's worthless coupons to get the achievement....

I have 50% Valve, 50% Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalker 2012, 50% Shadowgrounds Pack, and 50% Osmos. Probably the only one I might use is the Magic the Gathering one. Would be up for a trade just for the achievement.

Updated update: Just received 50% off Left4Dead2. Still have 50% off L.A. Noire. Still looking for a trade if possible, crappy coupon for a crappy coupon is quite alright...

From the Store page on the main App there is a link under The Great Holiday Sale to The Great Gift Pile. From that link you will find sets of achievements which will earn you a gift of some sort (a lot seem to be coupons). There are different groups of achievements each day, though you can still do the achievments from previous days.

It depends on the game, Steam doesn't set saved game locations.

I gave the copy of The Witcher I earned via achievement last night to a friend who'd previously expressed interest in the game, and I traded my Alien Breed 3 for Puzzle Chronicles.

I currently have a lump of coal, 33% off TellTaleGames/Valve, and 25% off Codemasters available.

I'm curious to see what I end up with after the AYIM achievement tonight.

True. Though soe have gotten games as a reward or coal (which count towards entries in the Sweepstakes they are having after the 2nd (Nice Grand Prize which is every game on Steam).

I actually got The Orange Box as a reward last night.
