Costume Quest has been fun so far. Perfect kid theme about saving your sibling and how costumes give you superpowers to fight monsters stealing candy.

Came very close to pulling the trigger.

Not sure what's holding me back. The thought of quality time with the kids, possibly. :D

Go to your steam community profile page. The number of games that you have is listed there in the gameplay stats box at the right side of the page.

There's a total on your Library page in the app. You can even click on it and sort it other ways like installed.

This might happen. I miss the Tropico 2 soundtrack. It's the only game I've ever owned that I've kept the music on for after the first little while.

I haven't even installed my copy of Tropico 3 but I'm still tempted to grab T4. I imagine it will be even cheaper during the holiday sales, though.

Shattered Horizon is actually a very fun game but the last time I tried to play the community was almost nonexistent and there is no real single player. A shame since it tried to do something new with the FPS genre and mostly succeeded.

According to the description, you can now play SP with bots on all levels. So I guess it's about as challenging as playing Counterstrike: Condition Zero in bot mode.

Taking a pass on that. It always looked good and i wanted to play it but i never had a card that supported DX11. Then now that I do have the card the game no longer has people playing.LOL the irony. :(

Meh. Tried it on the Android, and its variants like Archipelago. It's X planets vs. Y planets type thing. Boring.

Just as clarification: ARMA: Cold War Assault is the SAME GAME as OpFlashpoint Gold (which is OpFlashpoint, Red Hammer, and Resistance).

And Arma X Anniversary, which is complete Arma universe (everything altogether) is $29.99 now.

The three series are:

Arma: Cold War Assault (i.e. Op Flashpoint Gold including Red Hammer and Resistance, but Codemasters own the original name)

Arma (the original), aka Arma: Combat Ops aka Arma: Armed Assault (expansion pack Arma: Queen's Gambit)
(Actual name is "Arma: Armed Assault", though "Arma: Combat Ops" is the North American name)

Arma II and various DLCs
