This month, I bought 226 PC games for C$185.82 ($134.58)

Now are those a lot of games? Yes, it's a silly amount of games. Perhaps I'm addicted to good deals that deliver fun.

We all have a vice, and this is mine. I don't drink, or smoke, or gamble -- but I buy lots and lots of video games.

Though back when I was a console gamer, I'd might get eight games for that price -- if I were lucky.

Okay, how about you tell us how many there are in your Steam and GOG library? Should be fairly easy to get those numbers :)

All right, so on Steam, it’s 7,123 collected over 12 years. This includes some free games though. Officially, Steam says I have 5,342—so I assume that’s what I’ve paid for.

On GOG, it says I have 401 games. But a large chunk of that are free games—though not a majority.

On Epic, it says I have 97 games. I have not paid for a single one.

On Xbox Game Store, it says I have seven games. I only paid for one.

On Amazon, I have three games, all free.

And on itch.io, I have three games currently installed—nothing I paid for. But I have my eye on one specific game that I might pay for.

EDIT: I guess this doesn’t count collections that exist on Steam. For example, I recently got a Castlevania Collection that’s contains nine Castlevania games.
