Steam has around 4k game entries now, plus minus couple hundred, so there's a long way to go until 10 000 :D

JasmineMcCoy said about the 10.000 games and you explained to me that Steam has about 4.000 etc. I just said that Gwarsbane(OP) could just "hide" the Steam. But i dont mind your reply. Just making sure it landed to the right comment because it made me wonder about it.

Got it ;)

On a related note, maybe there should be an option to get notifications if we receive any activity in our comment threads, not just direct replies...

True that. There are many suggestions similar-related to the one you said. I hope cg implement at least a some of them.

Hidden game? I can't brain right now, sorry. What is that?

When you go and hide games so that you don't see them in the giveaway list. Its the little eye like symbol thats crossed out, just after the Steam symbol in the giveaway list on each game.

I've hidden 1000+ games so far.

Why would you do that???

Because there are 1000+ games and DLC that I either already have or do not want, so why should I see them on the giveaway page?

hahahah no... no I'm not. Its just that I have been on steam for over 10 years. Then came along bundles, and TF2 crap I don't want, and began trading the stuff I didn't want, for the stuff I did want.

Also the majority of stuff I have blocked is stuff I just don't want.

I've also been very lucky when it comes to steamgifts, the majority of stuff I have won, is from public giveaways. I also use some of the stuff I don't want to get stuff to giveaway to help pass along some of my good luck.

I also bribe people with pictures of kittens doing cute things. :)

Just curious, why hide games vs using the built in filters?

vempajor

We are hiding games what the filter can't find (like DLC-s, packs or different versions of the same game) or simply not interested in.

can you hide multiple games with single click?

Sadly no, it would be nice if we could just tick boxes on the side and then hit hide. Or if it was more like Steamgifts + where you would click it and it would just hide it without the popup or refreshing the page.

lol well yes and no. I just like to keep my giveaway list as clean as I can. After all, why see DLC you already own? Why see giveaways for games you are just not interested in.

And in a way I think I clicked more then that, cause I also opened the steam page just to make sure it was something I have already, or have already marked as not interested, or to look at it to see if its something I want or not.

Its really annoying when there is a lot of them on a page that I don't want, but I'm putting up with it because it only leaves stuff that I have an interest in, which sadly is still quite a lot. lol

Try the demos (both games have a demo). I tried the Just Cause 2 demo and didn't like it that much.

Isn't there 4000~5000 games on steam ? So that's quite an important portion of games filtered !

Just out of curiosity, how many giveaways do you see in the list (the number next to "All" ?) ?

I've marked 3,874 games on Steam as "Not Interested", and it tells me it cannot offer no new ones at the moment :D

I don't think "important" is the word you're looking for.

Steam has an appalling amount of shovelware.
