Starting this thread as a place to share online game network profile IDs/usernames, as well as discuss PC/Mac gaming in general. If a separate Mac thread is warranted, we can do that - the main reason I list Mac here is due to Steam's newly released Mac client.

Anyway, if you have a Steam username, one for Windows Live, etc, share it here to have it added to the Master List.
 
Just created a Steam account. I got a copy of Civ 5 and I'm hoping it'll play fine on my laptop.

anyways, my account name is... wait for it... osver

Shocking, I know.
 
Added you to my friends list, although I don't have Civ V. Get some L4D2 action going! :p

I doubt I'll be installing many other PC games... this will be the first real PC (non-casual) game I've played since the first Roller Coaster Tycoon. And the first time I've played a Civ game since the original.
 
*sigh* click play... game doesn't launch.

Laptop's a bit too old it seems.

I was wondering what was going on - I keep seeing the little notification window saying you keep launching the game :p
 
I click play, it lets me select which DirectX version (although it doesn't make a diff which I pick), and then the box just disappears and the game doesn't begin.

I think it's the video card on this laptop... oh well, that's what I get for trying to play it on my aging work laptop.

So yeah, I tried launching the game 6 or 10 times.
 
Games for Windows... i have no idea. I have an account (it might be my live account) but I do not have any games installed that use it. No idea what it is.

Battle.net: Tripredacus
PSN: TripredacusX

I also play on Quake 3 servers, there are no friends lists (also original Battle.net account that Blizzard deleted on me) where my name is Bludgeon[atr].

Oh um I was told today (by a co-worker) that I haven't signed onto PSN in 39 days... :\

Games for Windows Live is a cruel joke that is hurting PC gaming :(
 
I remember having to install it for the Fallout 3 mods... The first one, I don't even remember. One had a robot in it, the other was some island with hicks... seriously!

Anyways I was going to reinstall it but Fallout 3 doesn't have a Windows 7 patch. I got through everything (MQ and MQs of those DLC) on XP, but when F3 wouldn't run on Windows 7 I didn't bother logging into Live Gaming. So maybe I will again once I gate New Vegas.
 
I use Steam; username is Tankard_Tyranny
LFD1, LFD2 and Microsoft Flight are played the most right now.

Some of the titles require more balls than my old Dell has, so I am due for an upgrade - I will build one. I do prefer to use a box in lue of a laptop for gaming.

Steam name: Iggy [AE] 81206

3 favorite (online) games:
Team Fortress Classic(Usually you'll find me on Drippy-'s 2fort server, but occasionally elsewhere)
Fortress Forever
Chivalry: Midievil Warfare

I have a relatively decent sized library, but mostly single player games. Peggle, Archon Classic, Post Apocalyptic Mayhem(its playable online, but I never see anyone playing), Half Life, Half Life 2, Demolition Inc, and a bunch more.
 
I could have swore I put my Steam name out there...but it's ijtf_cinder

Update my KLOV username in the 360 list while you're at it too.

I don't do too much multiplayer gaming, but if I'm online go ahead and send me an invite, I often find myself not being able to decide what I want to play anyway.
