You know we all have at least one. That ONE game we never uninstall. Never trade in. Never lend out.
That ONE game you go to when you can't decide what you want to play. The one you just keep going back to no matter how many games you have in your backlog.

For me, it's Fallout 4. No idea why. I just LOVE exploring the world. I STILL find things I haven't seen.

Well, that and I still have to see the Institute ending. I only saw the one with the Brotherhood as my allies.

So, what's your 'Go To' game?

I actually learned that one back in the olden days, some kid in my school showed me how to do it. Other golden communal knowledge back then was the pattern for beating 8-4 (3rd pipe, 4th pipe, 3rd pipe I think it was), the location of the warp zones, and also the "infinite lives" trick bouncing off the shell on the stairs on one of the levels, can't remember if it was 3 or 6 or something like that.

Don't really remember any game magazines in the 80s. There were some "strategy guides" but I don't recall if they had the glitches like that in them.

Never had one! Honestly I've never even seen one in person, I don't know how big they were in the USA.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess Prince of Persia was released on Amstrad... :) or maybe a Dizzy game?

Amazingly no. The first Prince of Persia was... an Apple game. Yep. A game only released on Mac OS, imagine that.
And you're right, Amstrad was a bit of a bust in North America. Commodore was just too well sold already.

Well I meant that Prince of Persia is one of those games that was ported to every system ever :) It was on Apple II originally, which is Apple but not a Mac system. Apple II was my childhood computer. :) I somehow left it off my list, my go to game was probably Hardball or maybe Bruce Lee.

Looks like Prince of Persia was on Amstrad after all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQpbCCUquFY

there were some amazing apple exclusive games. Personally, one of my go-to all-time favorite is Dark Castle yes, it was subsequently released on other platforms, but those ports weren't anywhere near as good

I have all my Steam games installed, as in, all of them! it's 900GB right now :P

I don't really have a to-go game to be honest, there are some but when I finished them, usually puzzle games, I just play whatever I feel like.

I own only 1 game outside of Steam (not counting all the double games on GoG which is Diablo 3, so Steam is the same as all my games, not counting games that don't use a launcher like some older games.

It's the newer AAA games that are the culprit for me. Gears of war 4 is like 80 gigs. I hear there are even some games going past 160. Plus the update downloads are also pretty huge so they stay in a backup drive when I'm not currently playing them.

Ah yes, I don't think I own any AAA games, those games get very big these days and are a real R.I.P. to your HDD, my biggest game, not counting Diablo 3, is Torchlight I think? Guess that says enough XD

I own a mix of things, but even a few bigger games can add up real quick. 10 50 gb games is already more than half the total of your 600.

Lol, I checked with TreeSize and it seems my biggest game is ESO with 90.2GB, after that it's Van Helsing Final cut with 34.1GB, and after that Van Helsing, 2 (23,1GB), Van Helsing 3 (20.7GB) and Van Helsing 1 (18,5GB)
Why Did I think Torchlight before? Guess I remembered that very very wrong!!
So yes, the games aren't THAT small but also not THAT big, not counting ESO because 90GB...damn!

Which one is 160gb ? I wonder what game could be this size. Some devs really suck at compressing files i guess. Star Citizen is way less than this for example.

Call of Duty Black Ops 4 according to co-workers. I believe Destiny 2 with the new expansions will be as well by the time the steam release hits. Most likely it's because the files are uncompressed.
