40 games, and I love it:
- Updates are great
- Downloading is always quick and easy
- Great pre-order deals (BioShock 2 for £25, and BioShock 1 for free)
- Mostly cheaper than retail
- Files all your games and tracks your stats
- News feeds for all your games
Retail stores had their chance, and they spent it down-sizing shelf space and ignoring us.

215 but its always expanding and the system is really awesome and handy as long as your connected to the net
34 games but that's mostly because I haven't upgraded my system in a while so I can't play most of the ones I want to. Steam is good if its on sale or you'd be better buying it anywhere else sadly. I do like how I can download games and delete them whenever I want so I can rotate what I'm playing. Overall I like steam since its simple and easy to use but sometimes I find it stressful cause the friends list tends to die and say your offline when your not randomly.
You bought Breach too? I feel bad for youTEMHOTA said:I have this many games:
Love Steam, embraced digital distribution well, it is the future after all. Also a member of Good Old Games, where I own Blood, Blood II, and Duke Nukem 3D. Also on Direct 2 Drive where I only own one, Lost Planet 2 cause it was on sale for $10. Look forward to th end of retail stores, no more need for them really.
6 Games. I hate Steam.
I have incredibly slow broadband because I live in the country and there is nothing more annoying than buying a new game and then being forced to wait 2-5 days whilst Steam downloads a patch before you can play it.

About 50 games, I love it, and I can't understand those who hate it. I get very good download speeds as well, about 1.5 MB/s, which is fast for my crappy network. (Damn you 60 gigs a month limit!!! I'm already way over it now, it resets in 3 days, so yay! More games!!) I love it so, so much. I only hate the massive sales over the holiday. Now, hold on, there is a reason. It's that I'm always broke after them, and my hard drive starts to hate me. Yeah, ok, I love the sales, I get most of my games on sale anyways.
I love steam. It has friends so I can play with people, the in game interface is great, and the sales are awesome. Right now the Total War games are on sale and Napoleon is 75 percent off. Best day ever. Christmas sale had tons of games for a couple dollars apiece. Not just old crappy games, good games, indie games, all kinds of awesome stuff. So cheap games plus a friends community, and it is awesome.
I have one game (dawn of war 2) I got it at a retail store, of course I still needed a steam account since it used it as DRM. finished the campaign then uninstalled it. about 5 months later when I wanted to play again I just downloaded the torrent version, better in EVERY FU***NG WAY!
...or as my brother put it "Steam can shove it!"

I have 7 games in total, two of them have all the DLC in them. So far, I have mixed viewpoint on the service. I constantly have to remind myself in every transaction that there could potentially be a hiccup on their end, I could be accused of credit card fraud and have my account terminated without notice (yes, I pay attention to the horror stories about the service). But it is convenient enough for me to avoid communicating with people.
Oh, and nearly every Steam deal stunk to high heaven since I've registered onto the service.

Well over 50 games. And I love steam. Every time I go buy from a street store I am reminded why I do not. Poor service, high prices and tiresome tec issues force me back to my digital library of funtimes.
