Wasted on Steam

A disturbing little stat tracker.

Of course, this is relying on Steam's time tracker which is not very reliable. I have a few games that I've definitely played, but are still listed at 0 hours (Half Life 2, for example, which I've finished at least once on PC).

Edit: Woo! I'm the most efficient so far.

Prozac wins at steam so far.

Hmmmm, as more games have such tracking, stats like this are going to be eyewatering in the future. I know I had a very long time logged in WoW, although like steam it doesn't account for afk, just sitting around chatting or alt-tabbed time.

* Has logged 2008.4 hours of playtime — that's 83 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes worth
* Has spent the most time playing Left 4 Dead 2, which accounts for 18.0% of their playtime
* Has played 57 games, while 44 remain untouched you can also view unplayed and played games

* Seven games [GWJ] Tamren currently owns are on sale. View all of them?
* Their overall account cost per hour of gametime of the games list below is $0.57

So far I'm ahead for cost per hour gametime.

And uh.. how legit is this site?

Has spent the most time playing Mount & Blade: Warband, which accounts for 22.0% of their playtime

Two games Vega [GWJ] currently owns are on sale.
Their overall account cost per hour of gametime of the games list below is $0.65

Wow.. I've sunk a lot of time into Warband.

I did mine, it doesn't have TF2 in it for me, so my stats are BS.

Edit: I also scrolled through my games and noted that it did not have me playing Civ IV BTS, Dawn of War, and some others. So something seems busted, at least in my case.

And yes, I have them through Steam, before someone asks.

Same here. TF2 is probably 70% of my time played (if not more), so can't read anything into those stats as they currently stand.

55 untouched is scary but I'm good with 3.87/hr at least, especially since I paid a lot less than list price.

You don't give it a password or anything so it's just accessing public information. Seems benign enough.

Hmmm . . . I get a "Trend Micro has confirmed that this website can transmit malicious software or has been involved in online scams or fraud" warning when I go there. Am I the only one?

No TF2 for me either

* Has logged 518.2 hours of playtime — that's 21 days, 14 hours, and 12 minutes worth

Well, when you put it that way, it doesn't sound so bad.

Unfortunately, this is just a small fragment of my pile...

EDIT: But everyone is right in that the stats don't mean much. 0 hours in the quake 2 expansions, and I know that's not right, for example.

EDIT: I post this in support of what others have already said!

The one problem with this is that Steam provably does not track played time correctly.

Also I couldn't get it to find my ID. Sad face.

I wish Steam tracked the time for non-Steam games you've added. Is there any good program that does that other than Xfire?

Also, visiting this site and thread should be mandatory excises before each Steam sale.

OK, now this is annoying. How come you all can reference your account by your account name (i.e. [GWJ] Prozac), but I can't? All I get on my profile page is my profile ID number, and I can't even use the Steam /id/ path to find my account. Do I need to activate something for this to work?

I think the tracker may be counting DLC as full games. I counted my list manually and I only came up with 25 unplayed games. Not 44.

Same here. And when I click the "How do I calculate my total hours played with steam?" link, it send's me to the tracking profile for someone named "Exit Button." :(

Figured it out. DERP!

Which, there's no way that's true, because I've been using Steam since it's inception. I should have WAY more hours logged into playtime, especially for CounterStrike.

I love L4D2.

Thank you. This is information that should be on the site, for all of us who haven't done this before.

I don't think these stats in any way accurately reflect my playtime. This may be due to my having un-installed then re-installed a boatload of games. I'm certain I've played far more Team Fortress 2 in all my years on Steam than Fallout: NV. The list of unplayed games is horribly wrong too, I've played at least half of the games it lists as unplayed. Hell, it lists Civ 4 as unplayed, and I've poured probably 300+ hours into Civ 4.

Still a neat idea. Now Steam just needs to fix their time tracking.

Woot! I win so far at overall cost per hour

Yeah, there's definately something screwy about that. According to steam, I've got 582 hours logged into Team Fortress 2, and it's not counting that at all.

Also, Fallout 3's time played was screwed up while I was playing it, it only seemed to count the time it took to launch each session, so it shows only .7 hours, when I know I had to put 50 or 60 in it easy.
