 Re: Steam
Raygereio on steam as well: so who'd like to be my steaming buddy? I'll just go ahead and admit that I'm a big sucker for steam's sales. And while I'm firmly in the anti-DRM camp, I've come to accept steam. It works. Well, I guess the cracked back ups on an external hard drive of every game I own helps a bit in my acceptance.

There click on Games - sitting between Groups and Workshop right below the Community button. It will probably default to the Recently Played tab, go to the All Games tab. Here you can sort your games by play time.

 Re: Steam
Any way to add a whole bunch of friends at once? It seems to take forever.

 Re: Steam
I'm madfoole on Steam. I currently only have M:tG Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 and I just pre-ordered Torchlight II.

 Re: Steam
Just so we don't have two different threats on this can you guys stop posting your Steam IDs here and post them in this thread instead? viewtopic.php?f=32&t=422Thanks.

 Re: Steam
To hi-jack this thread to my own purposes.... I have a Steam question.
Is it possible to use Steam to access a game you bought somewhere else? To add detail. I just bought Crusader Kings II for the PC from Amazon Download. Can I use Steam to access it, download DLC (if I want), etc.? Or is that a no-go?

 Re: Steam
I don't know about the DLC part but you can add it as a non steam game. Not sitting in front of my home PC right now so I can't tell you how.

 Re: Steam
A lot of games "activate" on steam, or whatever that means. I know I bought Darksiders from Amazon while it was on sale, but it's on my steam list automatically and I think I can even download it from steam.
