That's mildly disappointing.
Removed from library?

nvm
List of games?

What kind of games did they remove? And what were the first 100 games?
Please, more details. We talking complete library removal or removal from store or just removed from you computer/uninstalled for no apparent reason (bug)?

The big problem was that you had to do everything in one sitting. In VCD you can actually save your progress. So you can clean up the room for a few minutes and then do something else.
Edit: why would Valve remove games from your HDD? Bro you might have a faulty HDD or maybe a virus.

He is obviously talking about his local disk, that sucks though, definitely some kind of deeper system issue. GL
Finally, it's weekend! Guess I'm going to play some ga... oh wait, let's get some pretty icons for my Grid view instead. What's wrong with me? Hehe.
Managed to play a little of "Yet Another Zombie Defense" and it's okay for the asking price, quite a few people managed to enter in my lobby to join me, apparently.

What does this even mean? Like a bug with the program deleted the games off his system, but they're still available for redownload?

Probably the game files are all still there but steam doesn't pick them up. Sometimes happens when you've installed a game in a separate directory than your steam installation.

The entries are still in the library, but most of the data is gone. e.g. here's what the Sonic Generations folder looks like.
Not sure what caused this. Maybe too early to blame Steam, but since it's only Steam-games and nothing else, I think it's more likely it's Steam-related.
I'm in the beta btw.
I don't think it's related to any specific games, but it mostly deleted everything on my E: drive.
Sorry, I didn't specifically mean another 100 games, just another "wave", this time with up to 100 games or so.
Removed the data for some games.

It works for me.
Oh great, looks like my 360 controller receiver died.
Suppose the infamous fuse blew.
Anyone got any experience with replacement receivers? I'm under the impression that MS stopped selling them individually, so are the Taiwanese knockoffs any good?
In the meantime, time to dig out my old cordless rumblepad, I bet that still works.

So I guess we're supposed to "celebrate" milestones, eh?
I'm at 199 games right now.
If I had any sense of hindsight, I would have grabbed a cheap wishlist game and made Half Minute Hero II my 200th, alas.

Air is awesome. I thought I wouldn't switch from PixelVision but now I don't see myself going back.
The knock-offs that Deal Extreme sells are largely considered to be more reliable than the official receiver.
That's wonderful and hilarious at the same time. Thanks.

Speaking of, does anyone know of a receiver that doesn't have a wire? I want something a little more low profile for my laptop, but have only seen them with wires.
Also, I have had to finesse the drivers a bit to get them working on Windows 8.1. Hoping MS releases some driver updates soon...

I didn't play any of the games I bought off GoG lol, gotta work on that too.
Just finished downloading the whole thing about an hour ago. Took me 2 days. What does unmetered mean?
I really wish their was a way to download only the main game and then the DLC later. When you have bandwith caps downloading 35 gigs in one shot sucks. Not to mention if steam goes down....

If steam goes down it should auto-reconnect and then continue the download where it left off.

That shit is cute until reality sets in.
Unmetered means not counting it towards your monthly download quota, if you're unfortunate to have a monthly quota (like me). Fortunately some ISP's allow you to download from Steam unmetered, but you need to use steam-limiter to ensure it only downloads from the unmetered servers.
I've got 150GB a month and am barely scraping by, thankfully Internode offers unmetered Steam... if not for that I would very rarely use Steam.

Only GOG game I have played is Under a Killing Moon.
I mainly just buy adventure games from there or stuff that is not at all on steam.

Aww disappointing to see you aren't digging it. I got a lot of fun from Marlow Briggs.
Yeah, I kind of like hack and slash but I'm not feeling it so far
I will probably stick with it though, might just not be in the proper mood for it now

Well some news about Steins;Gate possibly hitting Steam sometime soon from the OT:

Well it is a lower budget God Of War basically so i can understand you not liking it that much. Just the constant pace and varying things up kept me entertained for its short time.
Boy does that look like a dull game.

Seems to be the new it-game, as I mentioned yesterday it's been in the top 10 for a while now and the player numbers are ever increasing. As a fan of just flying around in space in Shattered Horizon I'm considering jumping in but probably not yet.

I'm definitely excited to see Steins;Gate on Steam. At least it's slowly inching closer to that happening.

I'm hoping the free digital version key they gave with the Limited Edition order turns into a Steam key but I'm not counting on it.
Yeah. I have a folder on my desktop called "GOG Games". Still I mostly forget I have it.
I'm very interested but yuck 40 dollars.

Categories for grid view would totally blow my socks off. I hope you're reading this Valve because I'm typing as hard as I can.
I had no troubles with Win8.1. The drivers that come with the receiver are useless across the board, but in my case it was just a matter of manually installing Win8.1's own receiver driver.
Wait WHAT?!?! Since when was this a thing. Sadly my ISP (rogers Canada) does not do this. Is their a way to find out if my ISP can do this for me?
150 GB...I got 80 and 3 people in my house use the internet. I'm left with about 40-50 gigs of download at the end of the month.
