it is both a monkey and a boombox
Portal and L4D both blow out my ear drums when I turn them on with headphones. And then sometimes if I turn them down in the volume mixer they'll turn themselves back up again.

I thought steam loved me.

 I remember CS:GO having a normal volume Valve logo/intro but the title screen was way too loving loud.

 I'm more annoyed about games that start up full screen that are obviously windowed mode only.
