There is not much to specify for the question, its really simple: Which title is the first game you have purchased on Steam? Was it a good decision? How much did you pay? When was it and what device? You don’t have to answer all questions, this is just a fun discussion to have.

You can check your history: https://store.steampowered.com/account/history/ Edit: Some in the comments pointed out that the purchase history doesn’t go back all to the beginnings of Steam. So if you purchased something earlier, it won’t be listed on your account.

(I reply with my game too.)

    I think that page only tracks 2008 and newer

    Because my “first” purchace aparently was in 2009, and by that point my steam account was already in active use for 6 years.

    The first game that I used steam for was CS 1.6 - about a week after steam launched.

    And I think the first new game I paid money for and added to steam was HL2

      It should work for pre-2008 because my first purchase shown is a digital copy of the Orange Box in 2007. Did you buy it boxed? It doesn’t show my boxed copies of HL2 or the HL platinum collection I’d bought retail before that point.

        It’s possible that all my games before that were physical copies. But I could have sworn I bought stuff before on steam directly
