The count is nineteen.  Which surprises me.  Because I was pretty sure it was like, ten.

Lightweight. ;)

It certainly cuts down on the angst of, "What to play?"  :)

I would just be installing & uninstalling every two days, if I didn't have over 150 installed at all times.  :P

Right now, I have 0.5 games on my HD. Normally I have between 10-15 games.
PanzersEast: Have to think to myself.... will I play the first one by the Winter Sale?  Probably not, then I should remove Dragonfall
PanzersEast: but that is thinking too logically.... and Steam Sales are about ignoring Logic

This is my problem as well.  I suppose I have a bit of ADD when it comes to games.

How can you only have half a game on your computer?  ???

I only have a dozen or so installed. I probably have 200-plus in physical or digital form.

I have no problem with that.

Generally speaking, once I finish a game, I'm done with it. There are very few I'm interested in revisiting, though if some friends fire up an oldie I have been known to join them on occasion.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I'm just the opposite. I revisit a lot of old games. But I also buy too many new ones. The key here is time.

That happened to me the last time I tried to install something through GFWL...

Had my SSD crash the other day. Skyrim was 50% redownloaded.

I've got around 25 or so installed.  Lord only knows how many are in a box out in the garage or on Steam, GG, Impulse and elsewhere.

I have this problem as well.  I enjoy too many "oldies" (such as BOTF and MTW), and I keep playing them when I should be devoting time to all these newer titles I have installed.

It is indeed!  Specifically, Luxor the Moonprince. :)

That's what is say to my mom....she always asks what i want for x-mas and i say...more time is all i want.

@Martok...for me it's even worse....i have plenty of old games which i do not revisit but are in fact "new games" for me because i never had time to actually play them.
