Now now, no need to make this a competition :p


And yes, I play all the games I currently have installed. Every now and then I will uninstall games I havent played in a while and then later install them again because I want to play them (like Far Cry or Battlefield 1942).

Don't make me get all of the drives, that is only steam, doesn't include other games, of which most of my storage is full of, along with all but70 gb of my main drive :p

This is gonna be a backup computer or gift to my brother so we can play some games. I need to order a mobo, I got the money, probably tomorrow. If I get a 9800gt and a power supply, it would be a good computer. Pentium duel core 2.0, overclock it alot, 2gb ddr2 ram, 500gig hdd. Im also going to de-brand the case. Fill in the floppy bay cover and paint the front gloss black.

I was gonna tell you my steam account value....but it appears even steam doesnt know. Keeps saying found 0 games and that I have been a member since 1970 (not sure Steam was around in 1970).

But anyway, I own 109 games. So Id say thats about $5,000 in games give or take. :p
The internet as we know it wasn't even around then.
Nobody had personal computers back then either.
Pong didn't come out until 1972.

Oh surely, there is computer long ago. The first computer game with vector display in 1950, first personal computer in 1965 and first internet in 1960s. There is a lot of history from wikipedia. For oldest internet in about 1980s, it can take about one hours to download the small picture.

I believe it was Tim Sweeny who said the internet was invented in 1969, but was not put into practical use until the 80s.

Should be perfectly fine for a 9800 GT. :D Joking of course, get something better.

I have a 9800 GT in my Core. 2. QUUAADD rig. Mine is the "power efficient" one so it doesn't need a 6-pin PCI Express power connector. Decent card, even plays Dirt 3 at high at 1280x1024 with a good FPS. :)

The first successfully mass marketed personal computer was the Commodore PET introduced in January 1977
PC's didn't really take off til the 80's.
Early internet was for the military only then later a couple of universities linked themselves together.
The internet as we know it now didn't start until late 80's.
