Good to see you WildWill! :)

And thank you for the offer, JamminR! :) I really shouldn't increase the number of games on my backlog, but I do want to get this one, for nostalgia's sake:

I would love to return the favor for you, JamminR- I've also got a few game keys lying around, if you want one of them as well. Let me know :)

Thanks! Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to you guys as well!

Thanks for the offer, Jam, but I'll pass. I have more games on steam than I even care to admit.

Here's to another year!

Thanks for the offer, JamminR, but I've got a backlog of games that I still need to play on Steam. And when I do get a chance to play a video game, I'm normally playing with my girl friend. :)

Merry Christmas, all! If any of you are near Salt Lake City, you're always welcome to come by my place for some coffee and ramen noodles. I do make some mean ramen noodles. ;)

Good to see you again, WildWill!

Stickly, will head to Steam store soon.
What keys you got? I'm eclectic about the games I like. :)

Rest of you;
Well darn!
This was the only way I knew to celebrate. I enjoy giving. Doing ok this year, so thought I'd offer.

Sheesh, even I have games I've not played. I just like having them for if I ever do find time.

And, MrPres, I've seen your Steam profile, yeah, I'd believe it...somewhat in awe of it considering I thought I had a lot, but, yeah, believe it.

Thanks JamminR! :)

Sheesh, even I have games I've not played. I just like having them for if I ever do find time.

I have this mentality too when it comes to getting games.. I doubt I'll ever get through them all, but here's hoping :P

Most of my game keys come from humble bundles, but I have keys for:
Defense Grid, Natural Selection 2, Fez, Limbo, Bastion, Mark of the Ninja, Eets Munchies, Brütal Legend, Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken, Sanctum, Sanctum 2, Serious Sam 3: BFE, Garry's Mod (lol), and Orcs Must Die!

If I had to make a recommendation, I'd say Defense Grid- It's quite possibly the best tower defense game in existence, in my opinion.

.. Holy crap I have a lot of keys. If anyone here wants one of these, I'd me more than willing to give them out. :)

I'm really into the recent 'point/click/choose your own adventure' type games that seem to be becoming popular once again.
Most of you are too young to have gotten into the Sierra Kings Quest, Police Quest, Space Quest, and other fun games they made in the 80s/early 90s... I grew up on those. I'm not big on RPG (having to keep track of hunger/hit points/health just annoys me, too much like real life...BAH!)
Puzzle games fun too.
Puzzle adventures, double points!
I've never been into platformers much. (Amazing, I know, considering I grew up in the age of Atari 2600 and Nintendo ES, probably why I never got large collections)
Defense grid looks beautiful, but, too complex for my tastes past few years.
If you look at my "Steam" wishlist, "Gone Home" is on sale for a few more hours at Humble Bundle store cheaper than Steam.
Do comparison shopping if you're gonna get me anything from my list. I've seen a few cheaper at the HB store, and, I'd rather support charity anyway. :)
While shopping at the HB store today, found lots of fun stuff that was kind of nostalgic, hence all the Jan 1 additions.

And you remind me, I have tons of stuff in my HB collection I'll never play. I need to sort them and offer keys too.
Ah...Time, that precious asset.

Yep.
Too much to play, not enough time.
That's definitely a problem. Darn work. Darn real life getting in the way.
:) :P

There you go JamminR! :)

And I'm in the same boat Mr. P- I am tailing you in number of games, and there are so many that I haven't touched.  :-\  Darn real life and lack of time :P

Oh, I have all the time in the world now. I'm out of the Army as of a couple weeks ago and don't currently have a job or school obligations.

I tend to stick to the same game though. Minecraft. I certainly got my $15 worth out of that game.
