    Depends on what do you mean by that.
    Steam sale, sure it's live. Steam website, nope, it isn't loading due to traffic overload.

    It's loading for me okay. Just takes a few seconds longer. I just bought Divinity: Original Sin 2 for $35.99. Still never played that game yet.

    Well it is slowing down some now. I get an error when I refresh but it works the next time I do it.

    Gonna pick up Prey $14.99, Total War: Warhammer II $44.99, The Evil Within 2 $23.99.

    and Dark Souls III

    As usual, I will tell myself that I am not buying anything since I have a backlog that I will never live long enough to get throuigh, but then I'll buy some games anyway...

    Wow! :eek: :D
    And that's cool. I didn't know you could look that up. I've only spent about $800 since 2012. The first game was Portal 2 on May 9, 2012.

    ~ $5500 since 2004 .. and I actually consider that sane truthfully. I was expecting it to be much higher.

    I've only spent $751.

    I was so proud of myself.
    Until I remembered that I buy most of my Steam keys on GMG and other sites...........

    hmm.. i forgot about the keys i've gotten from Humble, GMG thought I don't buy from them very often so it's probably like $150 or so max... As well Kickstarter backs, of which that's probably near $600. I think maybe one or two keys on G2A though I hate using those key resellers, garbage business.
