Random poster in a thread about games: "Please tell me you've played more than a hundred games in your life. Think about it. A hundred. Should seem like a small number, compared to probably over a million games out there"
Interesting question. How many games HAVE I played? For the purposes of this question, let's say games you've played for a minimum of one hour. Beyond that, the definition is up to you (arcade, phone, flash, console, PC, whatever).
How many games are in your Steam/GoG libraries today?
I'm going to work on a more accurate count, but my GoG/Steam libraries have about 150 games, and I have certainly not played all of those. I would guess my bodycount is between 300 and 400, spanning from the late 80s to today, with a greatly diminished count in the last ten years.
What's yours?
Damn that brings back the memories. One of my earliest computer and game experiences was getting a book from the library that had 600 lines of GWBASIC code for some kind of alien shooter game. I spent hours typing that and I never got it to work.
It did get me interested in programming and trying to understand why it didn't work!
