So its that time of year again...

New this time around, flash deals (x hours only), community votes to choose some of the upcoming deals, and steam badges (http://steamcommunity.com/id/[user]/badges).

And just to make everyone feel bad even before their wallets take a hit: Wasted on Steam. Here's my stats:

Quote

Ranked 28035th with 513.3 hours played.

Has played 26/53 games.

Owns 53 games for a total worth of $471.15.

Overall account cost/hour for gametime is $0.92
And that total worth doesn't even count DLCs :unsure:

EDIT: And that stats thing just broke because it uses the sale prices :lol:

******... ArmA II Combined Ops is on sale... and it's still €20 :(

I mean, it's such an old game. It should be 10 by now or something.

EDIT:
Ranked 24627th with 646.8 hours played.

Has played 51/116 games.

Owns 116 games for a total worth of $497.56.

Overall account cost/hour for gametime is $0.77


Except that's all bollocks of course, since according to Steam I've played TF2 alone for more than 1000 hours. I'm like, so old skoo' that most of my playtime predates Steam's Gestapo monitoring.

Kind of strange that since 1027 hours for TF2 is right there in my Library.
(And only like... maybe 25 of those were idling :P)

Also:
Empire Total War is their most played game, which accounts for 16.1% of their playtime

Total War <3

Ranked 39146th with 156.0 hours played
Has played 6 games out of 7. You can also view unplayed and played games
Owns 7 games for a total worth of $49.34 (at the games' current prices)
Their overall account cost per hour of gametime of the games list below is $0.32

Ha, I'm lower than all y'all.


Ohhhh... Shogun II, about $8. I want it, but I think I'd only be able to run it on low-medium settings. Worth it maybe? I could get now for this price and in the future when I have a better rig I could play it better... ERGH!!! Choices... Wretched Steam sales, they always get me.

Saints Row 3 + ALL DLC for $25?  Yes please.  

And Warlock: Master of the Arcane looks interesting too.  

I'm going to be eating a LOT of fish sticks over the next couple weeks.  I already spent a bunch earlier on Battlefield 3 Premium and July 4th celebrations, and now this.

I picked up the Shogun 2 pack, some New Vegas DLC, and got a copy of Portal 2 for my cousin.

Unfortunately, that's probably not all I'll be buying...

Looks like a good sale so far. I was really hoping the Witcher 2 would go one sale, though. I don't understand why Saints Row 3 won that since it had recent sales. And my (somewhat frightening) stats:

Ranked 4852nd with 2171.5 hours played.

Has played 38/46 games.

Owns 46 games for a total worth of $345.93.

Overall account cost/hour for gametime is $0.16

I like that cost per hour, though.

I haven't played Frozen Synapse yet, though I've had it for a while. But it looks great, so with the Red DLC at €2 down from €10... I have no choice but... *YOINK*

It does look bloody good though. Watched a TB, WTF Is... Frozen Synapse? video a little bit yesterday.

Totally looks like something I'd like.

It's illogical to say that a Mac is better than a PC, because a Mac itself is a PC.
