Truly a PC gamer's ultimate version of hell.
I buy all my PC games at retail (but then again, I live in mainland Europe, where PC retail is still quite significant). So if the apocalypse comes, I think I will manage. :p

You show me ANY source that verifies there's even close to a billion gamers on this planet, and I'll be happy to lend your argument more weight.
I believe that's the common figure. One sixth of the population are gamers. Hold on a mo and I'll get the source.

Why do those retarded Ex-capists seem so familiar...?

No, I'm serious. I can't put my finger on it. Does anyone know?
It's Carter and Rydell. :)

Hah! I'll be damned.

Well then, I will acquiesce that, comparatively, 30 million Steam users is middling in comparison, though it'd be nice if we had exact figures on how many people play PC games, how many use consoles, how many use both, etc.

Goddamit NO! That was just a myth! No-one ever sank that low. We even dug up the E.T. cartridges before that happened. Which it never did.

Then why were you the first to play that wretched game and enjoy it?!

Except once the apolypse comes, you'll get a "can't reach activation server" error right before a zombie eats you :D

72 Games...72 in total...

May the gods have mercy on my soul...
You think that's bad ? Wait until your list of games costs more than your computer :D
(also: 111 games... *glups*)
(edit: actually, steamcalculator.com says 92 while Steam says 111, that's weird)

Cramp. I always smile when I'm in huge pain.

Lance and Chad from IGN as slowbros, HUGE Lulz for that. I can already imagine them speaking like Slowbro from the Pokemon anime.

Excellent job and good thing I have backup in case the Steam apocalypse occurs.

After calculating the worth of my own collection (without the Steam calculator that doesn't seem to work) mine is one of them. Hell it's about twice as expensive as my computer.

I payed way less for it of course. Yay for deals!

Don't worry. Not only does my collection include DRM-free games, I will also probably be stocked up on cracks to bypass any DRM that the other games might have.

And who says pirates cannot do good deeds? ;)

Well, obviously, I am going to get all the cracks before that happens. I mean, what is the first thing every smart person would do if an apocalypse occured? Get on the Internet to get all the files they need while it is still online, DUH! :p Also, the zombies would blow their brain trying to chew the electric cable anyway. :p
