Half-Life 2 Orange and Black Pricing Revealed

[Dave_Chimaera]

So thats what? double the launch price for ep1, and in return we get Portal and Team Fortress 2?



Seems entirely fair to me - roll on release :)



(Yes I know there were other games included with HLEP1 such as HL2M and all that, but I already had them all anyway :) )

Yeah, $40 isn't bad for what you're getting. I have a feeling Episode 2 will be a bit longer than Episode 1 as well. Hell, I'd have probably paid the $40 for TF2 alone.

[-:Nighthawk:-]

Plenty of us already DID pay $40 for TF2. Like 6 years ago. :P Gotta wonder if any of the long-lost preorders will be honored at this point.



But yeah, $40 for the combo of all 3 ain't bad, assuming you wanted them all.

Naw, I would. I started off with TFC as my first real online gaming experience. I probably loved it more than I've ever loved CS.

I can't wait for TFC and Portal, those are worth the forty bucks alone. Episode two? Meh, EP1 wasn't that great, I wouldn't really care, it's just the icing, although if they said it was vehicle oriented, the physics might be interesting.

Seriously, if Hammy the Squirrel from Over the Hedge ever got involved in CS, he'd change his name to V.C. Sniper. Think about it.

Die. In a fire. Alone.



Actually, TFC was also my first real online FPS experience. I goofed around with Quake III a time or two online, but TFC had me addicted from the moment a VALVe employee's girlfriend's brother gave me one of his many CD keys, lol. The rest, as they say, is history.
