SteamTool

Generally, this got me thinking about all the ways we customize Steam or use external tools to make it better. A while back we shared some of our favorite Steam skins, but here's some more useful Steam-related stuff. And because I've inevitably left out your favorite, share it in the comments!

steam.tools — A much better way to browse the Steam market for trading cards, backgrounds, and emoticons.

Depressurizer — Helps organize your library, and can auto-categorize games using data from their store pages.

SteamPrices— I use this site, among others, all the time to track discounts.

SteamDB— Another great way to track what's going on in the Steam store.

Steam Left— Estimates how long it'll take to beat your backlog (more frightening than useful).

Steam Charts — Find out what people are playing.

Tyler grew up in Silicon Valley during the '80s and '90s, playing games like Zork and Arkanoid on early PCs. He was later captivated by Myst, SimCity, Civilization, Command & Conquer, all the shooters they call "boomer shooters" now, and PS1 classic Bushido Blade (that's right: he had Bleem!). Tyler joined PC Gamer in 2011, and today he's focused on the site's news coverage. His hobbies include amateur boxing and adding to his 1,200-plus hours in Rocket League.
