Downloaded Steam and created my profile within the first 24 hours of it’s release. Pretty sure it was to get HL2 on day 1. My little brother seemed to think it was special, which made me wonder how many of us are still out there blasting combine and waiting around for the mythical HL3.
Actually just noticed yesterday that I had this badge. Sep 12th.

I’m not sure how long I’ve been active on steam. It’s not 20 years I’m sure.
Edit: 19 years as of 21 Nov 2004.

March 2006 for me. Not quite the same flex as everyone else but still something.
I was a big fan of half life, but was late to the hl2 party. I was still basically a kid then. Me and my parents had an agreement. They had no issue with me playing games, but id have to get them myself. They gave me £10 every 2nd week, so by the time i even got a computer able to run hl2 i think episode 2 was about to release?
Im sure i could google the release date but i vividly remember episode 2 was releasing not long after i finished my own computer. Even then the parts were mostly stuff my father got for me. He even made my steam account for me and got me some games as gift bless him.
Damn I probably missed it by 2 years. I got steam when HL2 original release date coincided with a video card I bought. HL2 was delayed from there for like 3 years lol

Not quite. I was rocking a pre-built eMachine with a Celeron and dedicated graphics back then.

My god I wish I still had my original account.
31st October, 2003. Got it to get some new games for my birthday.
Wasn’t born yet
I’m at 14 years here, 2009.
Lol, my account on steam is only 13 years old. but to be fair, i didn’t have a personal computer until 2010.
I’m actually amazed that Steam existed when I was 13 years old. crazy.

I had one of those and gave away to an ex gf 🙁
Dammmn I got steam when I was 7 in 09! That’s live !

So… we are so old guys.
Would have been day 1 if my college didn’t have a stupid firewall, Sept 20th for me
I probably am a day 2 guy… I know my steam ID is 5 digits
September 18th 2003 for me.
I was still in my diapers at that time 💀
I was too young sadly only got a 14 year old account
I’m close to day one, HL2 represent.
Only have it since 2008 🙁
next month for me 🙂
I would have an account with that but I was young and getting banned left and right with my “hacking”. So I had multiple accounts
dog I wasn’t even alive 💀

Dam I wasn’t even alive back then
Not me, don’t think newborns could’ve made a steam account back then.
i was born in 2002, almost got it
I avoided Steam as long as possible.
Was not a fan of Steam at launch, can’t say I’m a fan of any game launcher still.
Steam member since June 2007 on my current account.
Feb 2004.. Feeling old
Just hit 14 years last month. However, I got Orange Box the day it came out. Just lost that account.
I’m a little behind. 19 years of service. Account created December 2004
