How many hours would it roughly take you to finish every game in your Steam library?

You can find out here: SteamLeft

Of course such estimates can never be 100% accurate but let's all share our results.

My library is not that big so:

It's kinda how I feel knowing I will never complete every game in my steam library.

You guys are putting me to shame. I honestly think I would need a lot more hours for my library. >.>

@thehig1: You just have to try the link a few times for it to work.

What does it mean by "complete" though? Just the main story or getting a 100% ?

wonder how this is calculated, and what it means by beat each game, does it mean main campaign or 100%, and does it add time on for games that cant really be beaten like FSX, Football Manager, Civ 5 etc.

Actually I'm not really sure, there is no mention of the method that's implemented for the calculations. Maybe they take into account how many hours the main campaign requires to complete along with the achievements. From the site's about section:

SteamLeft takes all the games in your steam library and compares your playtime for each game with the amount of time it takes to beat that game. Then it adds up all the differences to give you the total time in would take to beat all the remaining games in your library. These numbers are just rough estimations, but it is a fun figure to think about.

Yeah not very clear on their part as to the definition of "beat".
