$12.99 on amazon, free shipping over $25 or for amazon prime members.
Amazon linky

On Amazon's site, decription says:
Half-Life 2: Aftermath brings you the new adventures of Gordon Freeman and his able sidekick Alyx. At the end of Half-Life 2, you did critical damage to the Citadel. The whole place is going to go up, taking out City 17 and what's in its immediate radius. In this expansion, Gordon and Alyx are leading the flight from the city -- and getting up close and personal with some of the creatures and sights from the Half-Life 2.

Looks like an expansion pack?
 
I'm not going to support EA and buy it in-store. I'm going to buy it over Steam instead. I can't believe Valve stooped that low to partner up with EA.

EA = Microsofts "Evil" twin.
Besides killing many companies by obtaining exclusive rights, they totally killed off all Nascar Racing "sims". They did the exclusive deal with Nascar, and made a product 3 years behind what was previously out there (Nascar Racing 2003 Season was king), and then when Nascar Sim Racing 2005 was totally rejected by the sim racing community, they simply threw in the towel and gave up. No more PC sim racing. This company must be stopped or PC gaming will no longer be the thing many of you now enjoy doing. You might think who cares, it's Nascar, but your game or Sim could be next!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
NOT DEAD...HOT!

Seriously, I just checked it and it comes up as $16.99

BUT you get a free coupon within 48 hrs by e-mail for $10 off at Pro-Flowers.com

Combined with this: Pro Flowers Thread

Should make a decent deal if it works, IF shipping is still free.

They're selling it for 39.99 at Steam, so I suppose 30-40$ would be fair elsewhere.
 
List price is only $19.99 according to my school bookstore which is selling it for $18.37

Edit: For Aftermath that is. HL2 GOTY Edition is seen for $19.99 AC often enough at major retailers (Best Buy, CompUSA, Circuit City).
 
I need some time to save up even for this.

I will let them take as much time as they need. They did on HL2, and it was superb.
 
EA the Wal-Mart of the PC gaming world? No that dubious title belongs to UBISOFT. Why? Well, at least EA doesn't (yet) use StarForce AND they at least have a couple of quality franchises that are mostly pretty good from year to year (MOH, C&C, most EA Sports titles).

I have actually purchaed C&C: The First Decade & NHL '06 from EA this year so those haven't been too bad. And, most importantly, they have nice plastic DVD-style cases now with PC DVD or PC CD in big letters on them. Better than the $55 I paid for FEAR DVD Edition in a flimsy paper sleeve!

Agreed...that was the end for Papyrus. NR2K3 which could be bought for $39.95 new ( i actually got a second copy for free thru amazon after rebate) is now selling between $299.00 used to $399.00 new.

F'n EA! 🙁
