You guys crack me up! 5 titles on orange box isn't enough for you. ...like VALVE is saying "we have too many of these really good selling game titles, please take one". CS:S is unarguably the most popular shooting game online and you guys want it for free. As far as HL2: dm I'm pretty sure it can be had for free on the ATI/AMD site for dl'ing steam.

Next time you go to watch a sequel, how would you like being forced to watch the prequels as well at a higher price?

Can you tell me if your Orange Box titles include Counter Strike Source and Half-Life 2 DM?

Need to know if I should put this on a new account or add it to my existing steam account. I would like to give my current steam account to a friend, if I can.

When you install orange box and you already have one of the games included (HL2 or HL2: Episode 1) it gives you the option of giving your extra copy to a friend as a gift through steam.

Also I believe since it comes with HL2 you get HL2:DM but you don't get CS:S with it.

As a side note, if you missed this deal Circuit City has it for $35 in online stock right now. Not as great of a deal but still beats paying $50.

I missed it at Best Buy, but the local Walmart was happy to pricematch the $24.99 price. I don't have any of the titles, so it was a deal!

I was kind of bummed that it did not come with CS:S. But they would be stupid to include it. I know people who just bought HL2 just to play CS:S. Team Fortress 2 is alright, but it seems kind of noobish at times.

If I would have only known dang it! I was going to go in an hour or two after they opened to see if they had any but I figured they would be gone for sure. Now oos and I could have just gotten it online if I would have checked.

I ordered two copies online but couldn't wait for 'em so picked up another two in-store on Friday :p
Anyone wants a copy for what I paid for 'em? Otherwise they're going back to BB.
