    $2,389.21 in 13 years.

    So $183.79/yr. Or 3 full price games a year ($59.99).

    Not bad.

    I have 514 games in my library.

    Avg. price is therefore is $4.65 a game. All hail The Number.

    $356.95 USD spent on 488 games in just under 16 years, or $22.31/year or $0.73/game. Not counted is the money I spent on various Humble Bundles,
    which I'd guess is around $200.

    My rule for buying stuff, er, subscribing to stuff, on Steam is not to
    pay more than $5 a game, though I've let that number creep up a bit to
    allow for inflation and the fact that I now pay in Canadian dollars.
    That goes with bundles as well, the total price divided by the number
    of games I actually want to play needs to be $5 or less.

    I'll only pay more than that on physical games I actually own, or games
    from GOG.
