the volume of games is a huge problem, if youre not looking for anything specific to buy you have to wade trough piles of crap to find something worth it
Isn't that true for anything with lots of stuff? Amazon, Spotify, iTunes ... what's the difference?
i never said they werent all **** 
Well since gamers are organized now...lets keep the train rolling and attack EA for their business prac---*Everyone goes back to playing their games* ...Nevermind...
i never said they werent all ****
edit: I'm Aussie and the way Steam prices their products does suck. The Shadow of Mordor had a "66%" sale recently, but it still would've cost me ~$40 to purchase.
I'd blame that more on the Australian dollar being terrible than on Steam.
lol I'd rather Steam and GoG over a PS4 or Xbone. Have fun spending roughly 4k for 200 games and 200 DLCs. As I said in the original dramatic thread; all companies have pros and cons. Just gotta know what cons you can live with and what pros you can't live without. All I really care about is getting games without selling both my arms and legs, and ofc playing them. All the other crap? Don't really care. Just let me be a gamer and play games pls.
But alas I am a hybrid master race and not a blind PC elitist, so don't get me wrong. Steam is just my main place for gaming and I find it odd about how much people can complain about it. I do wanna PS4 so I can play Bloodborne, but I'm not gonna spend 400 dollars for a console just for one game. I'll wait until they release other console only games before acquiring it.
Most consoles that I'd rather play on are some of the glorious old ones.

id rather spend more money than use Steam
I like Steam because none of you had experienced the suffering of waiting on the line for hours just to download a Half Life or Counter Strike patch on fileplanet.
That's what we had to do before Steam came along.

Give your money to your wife so that your house will be filled with hand bags, finger nail polish, and hundreds of weird "fashionable" clothing.
We may indeed have won... but at what cost? Sorry. The casualties section cracks me up.
Also people...think of how sweet the summer sale will be to get back in peoples good graces.
Steam summer sale. SOON.
Last year's was fantastic tbh.
And that's just a fraction of what's on sale mang.

ooooooohhhhh...... Aaaawwww. Wow. Old games I already bought and played years and years ago. On sale.... No way! Oh man! Steam is amazing! Oh my fvcking God, it's amazing.

Tell your wife that she just got points from some random bottle of whiskey via the internet tbh.

If you're trying to rustle my jimmies, you have failed.
If you're attempting to have an actual discussion, then you have also failed.
Tbh, I'd rather wait a bit for a game to go from 59.99 to 5 dollars. But that's just me.
Anyway, new games also go on sale too. Last year even TW3 for pre-order was on sale. And having old games for sale is good for people who see it and think, "Hey I always did want that game but never had the moneiz for it."

still not as good as the square enix/eidos collection that was on sale for 99$ a couple years back

I have to admit, your avatar really is reflective of the level of thought going into most if not all of your posts.
Making gamers pay for mods went down well.

Nah I prefered this.
For me the sales Steam has don't balance out the issues that are apparent in Steams other business tactics, lack of customer support, efforts to monetize everything, poor quality assurance that has flooded Steam with poor quality and copycat games, Early Access which allows developers to make people pay to alpha and beta test games (before this was free or developers actually paid gamers to do this).
