How Long Would It Take You To Beat The Games In Your Steam Library?

[HardOCP News]

Honestly, I've never given it much thought but, like many of you, I do have a ton of games I haven't had time to play. What about you? How far are you behind on your stack of unplayed games?

 

[MrWrong]

Im not sure I want to see how long it will take me to beat all the games I own. Im already pretty much convinced that there are some games I own that I will not have time to play because of the rate that I keep buying new games. Maybe one day when im retired I will finally have time to enjoy all the games I own.

 

[Pabuchok]

2466 continuous hours, or I could travel to Venus.

 

[Virtualarc7]

3463 continuous hours or i could travel to the moon 33 times, lol i buy too many bundles

 

[amddragonpc]

I hope Steam is around when I retire so I can finish my games then. It's this damn day job that takes up so much of my time ...

 

[avddreamr]

I think I need to stop buying games, 1578 hours, or I could watch the entirety of Star Trek, Twice.

 

[dr.stevil]

2758 hours and Run 23,645 miles (though you might need a water break)

I had hope that I might actually one day complete the backlog

 

[Kaitian]

or I could watch the entirety of Star Trek, Twice.

I've done that... several times Luckily for me it was between transition waiting to get back into school.

 

[RiPpLeeFFecT]

4640 Hours

I don't think that's completionist runs.

 

[TeeJayHoward]

TeeJayHoward, it would take you 1369 continuous hours (57 days,1 hour,39 minutes) of gameplay to complete your Steam library. In this time, you could watch the entire Harry Potter film series 68 times.

 

[MR._PUNKINHEAD]

I feel inadequate...

It would take you...

IN THIS TIME YOU COULD...Watch the entirety of Doctor Who 2 times

 

[King Icewind]

2371 continuous hours or 98 days,19 hours,52 minutes of gameplay to complete your Steam library. Write 4,743 blog posts which would never happen because I don't like writing that much lol. I think it might be doable...someday.

So when is the next steam sale

 

[455olds]

311 hrs to complete my unfinished games
I logged over 4000 of hours played. http://www.wastedonsteam.com/usd/id/455olds

I don't think those calculators are accurate. I have 400 hrs on san andreas that didn't show up but it shows on my steam page.

 

[Psychor]

9,049 hours.

[MrGuvernment]

74 days... i got alot of FPS's i guess.

 

[sfsuphysics]

I am an amateur.

257 continuous hours

or I could watch Avatar 90 times.

Nah, I'm an amateur, only 76 hours. I don't have a lot of steam games, I guess it doesn't count games you have already beat, a few GTA games probably take up the lions share of that, got a couple other RTS games that I'm not sure how it computes "time to finish"... either way took me almost as much time to find out what the hell my steamID was as it took to find out how much time it would take to finish

 

[ZLoth]

It would take me 6608 continuous hours (275 days,8 hours,24 minutes).

I'm not surprised, since I haven't been playing games for quite a while.... thus the low interest in Steam sales.

 

[delsydsoftware]

5152 continuous hours
214 days,16 hours,17 minutes

Fly from New York to London 1,472 times on a Concorde jet

 

[JosiahBradley]

This thread makes me feel so muhc better now about my backlog:
only 2282 continuous hours. Oddly enough that's only 10 hours per game on average.

 

[beowulf7]

What is the average amount of hours required to beat the average game? I realize defining "average" could be controversial. If we say 20 hours for 50 games, that'd be 1,000 hours.

 

[ShamisOMally]

Something like 101 days to beat all the games I own

 

[AliceCooper]

253 hours.

Funny because I have put 10 times that much into one game alone .

 

[RW2112]

1449 hours.... thought that was bad til I read all the comments, lol...

 

[jeremyshaw]

There are some games in there I would never play. So... it would take forever to complete it.

 

[P4B]

363 i stopped buying them packs

 

[SDplus]

7766 hours:
http://steamleft.com/span/76561197969680359

No Surprise. I buy games but get less and less time to waste on them, so... Ever increasing backlog is created. If I do get time to game, it takes more time to decide what to play than is left to play it... Or I just play D3 and avoid steam altogether...

 

[Fun]
