Burnout Paradise uses it to take mugshots in multiplayer
On the 360 version I always tried to make sure those mugshots were completely ridiculous. You had just enough time to stage a photo. My personal favourite was switching to a PS3 controller and making a stupid face.
Ok I'm curious about what kind of avg. game completion rate people have on Steam, also what kind of rare achievements they have.
Here's mine Achievement Showcase. I know, pretty bad avg. completion rate.

Ooft, mine's way worse than I thought.

How do you get this showcase to show up?
If you're level 10 on higher on Steam, there's an option to show it when you edit your profile!

I'm actually more interested in the rare achievements than the completion % since it doesn't mean a lot. Why not describe what they are or at least include a link to your profile? It's impossible to tell what 90% of them are just based on the icons.

Yep:
26, to be precise.

I've got a 27% completion rate, and it doesn't say that much as so many of the games on my account are games that cannot be beaten - Civ, TF2, etc.
Edit: If it's based on percent of achievements taken, then f*ck it. There are so many achievements I refuse to do. And TF2 has 1200 of them or so now.

Aha, Level 5 here. This explains it. Feel left out.
On another topic, is it possible to quickly view profile background images somehow/where?
On the "edit profile" page it is painfully slow.

I now fly into a murderous rage whenever fishing is mentioned.
Blame Torchlight 1's achievements.

Completion rate just refers to the average amount of achievements you've unlocked in the achievement-supporting games you've played and within which you've unlocked at least one achievement.

Hmm, but there are only images from cards?
In my profile editing page there are hundreds of pictures.
Yes, that's what I was searching for. Thanks.
I don't think so!
There are a lot more backgrounds than are on that list since a ton of them are Steam inventory items that you get from crafting badges, so if someone's made an archive of them somewhere, those ones might be included as well.Torchlight 1 fishing. *shudders* I didn't even bother with that achievement.
I think there's a mod that makes fishing take way less time, though.
Indeed. It's kind of a clusterfuck with achievements added (or removed) whenever the dev pleases, throwing in 1300 achievements in one game for lols, broken achievements, etc, etc. This is one area where console manufacturer control is actually a positive; being an achievement/trophy hunter on console is quite a lot more sensible with all the restrictions they have. Steam cured me of my achievement disease because it's impossible to care anymore.
As such, my stats are kind of crap. 29%/19 perfects, rarest achievements are all stupid or related to Hotline Miami.

I have 7 "perfect" games on Steam, but one of those is To The Moon. ... Another is The Fly. Some tough achievements right there.

Technically they've been already released officially as free download addons, they're just re-hosted on fan sites these days. But I get what you mean, a Steam release would be nice.
Btw, now I remember that I bought a physical TR Collection box a few years ago (around 2010), containing the first 6 games. The box advertises the games to be the Gold editions with all addons included. But in fact those addons are missing and I had to download them manually.
Except TR3, its addon "The Lost Artifact" wasn't free and isn't available anymore these days. The only way to get it legally these days is to buy a used physical copy.
You're confusing Enhanced Steam's custom background functionality with Steam's actual background functionality.
Does ES' custom function even show anyone else the one you picked? I mean, it'd at least have to be only to other users of ES, right?
I think I just encountered a near game-breaking bug in Deponia: The Complete Journey. It happens really early on, too.
It happens really early on, too.I can't seem to enter Wenzel's house twice - the second time, Rufus just walks straight back out again and strides to the opposite corner of the map in the village. The only way to get around that is to make sure I have all the objects needed to solve the puzzle in Wenzel's house the first time I visit (otherwise, I need to load from an earlier save file). Even then, once I've managed to flood the basement, I still don't ever properly "enter" the house - after trying to get back into the house, I hear Wenzel and Rufus talking to each other, but I'm still stuck looking at the village. Once I was at that point, I had to save and reload the game again to load the basement and get the divining rod.

Here, have a look at my e-peen.
For my rarest achievement showcase:
First 4 of mine are Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition, any game where they add steam achievements after the facttends to have a low completion percentage.
The other 2 are from the Dishonored Dunwall City Trials DLC, and DLC also usually means a low completion percentage, and that DLC is also way harder than the main game.
Most of the rarest achievements tend to be things like DLC achievements, and ones that were added later, so they're not really always the hardest to do.
My other achievement showcase has (the one where you pick the achievements to show) has:
Half-Life 2 Episode 2:
The send the gnome into space achievement
A.R.E.S
S rank all levels.
Aliens VS Predator
Beat Marine campaign on Nightmare
Dark Void Zero
complete game with 0 lives lost
Darksiders
BFA (get all achievemnts)
Just Cause 2
75% completion (which means you've done everything.

I wish I had that at the time.
I think it took me a day of doing nothing but clicking on that damn spot and going into challenge portals to get the fishing and sell 10,000 items achievements.
Torchlight 1 is banished from my game list forever, 10000 years dungeon.
At least those weren't multiplayer achievements for games with dead multiplayer *glares at Left 4 Dead*

Haha, that just makes the lack of an official release in the here and now even worse.
It's worse in some ways and better in some. Devs have more freedom regarding achievements which occasionally leads to some interesting experimentation, but sometimes they mess it up.
You can just use the other Achievement Showcase where you manually pick the achievements to show though.
IMO it makes more sense to aim for specific tough achievements that are actually achievements than to just get as many as possible anyway.

I downloaded the free addon for Tomb Raider I, but I'm not sure if I really want to play it, playing the normal campaign is already tedious enough.

Damn, you're right. It an ES functionality.
So I can only set card images as background? Cannot find that option when watching my cards. Or is that also only available from a certain Level?

Haha I went through this same exact process. Don't worry though, the rest of the game was smooth
