Pluvius posted an interesting article in the chat earlier today that contained some fascinating stats. It claims that 1% of Steam users own 33% of all copies of games on Steam, and further than 20% of members account for 80% of all games. To be a member of that 1% group that owns 33% of all copies of Steam games out there, you need to own at least 107 games. To get into the top 20%, you only need to own 4 games. That means 80% of Steam members own 0-3 games.
That 1% group is about 1.3 million Steamers, with the point of the article being that the market for new games is relatively smaller than people tend to think it is—most PC gamers tend to stick to a small number of games in genres they know, or specific games they're already enjoying.
We're a small sample here, but I thought it would be interesting to get a pulse of how TONe PC gamers fit in. How many Steam games do you have in your libraries?

Re: How many Steam games do you have?
I believe my exact number is 38 after a couple of quick picks this afternoon. On an average month, the number I play is precisely zero...

Re: How many Steam games do you have?
I counted 27 games in my library, but only have a few installed. Most of the games were bought when VCf was still alive and almost all games were sales (of course).
Re: How many Steam games do you have?
I only have a paltry 16 games. I don't play all PC games through Steam, though.
Re: How many Steam games do you have?
138. Of those I've played 58. More than a few I haven't tried playing because I know my (current) computer can't handle it.

Too many. And unless people suddenly stop making video games, there will be more and I will never finish them all.

238. Only played 1/5 of them. Haven't paid much attention to Steam at all this year. I'm waiting fo a proper Steam handheld to come out.

I'm dangerously close to 500 games...
