Just a heads up... pretty great deal if you don't already have the Orange Box.

I kind of see the point to get old games such as HL, because they're so epic, but what's the point for counter, DoD and the other original HL derivations? I mean, I know a lot of people still play them online, because they're purists, but it's hard to choose one of those while you can play Source in the same pack.

Besides, who really has ever played stuff like Team Fortress anyway? It sucks!

Actually a lot of hardcore CS players prefer 1.6 over Source.

God, I played Team Fortress Classic for years and years.

TF2 is my favorite non-LFS game.

Well, I for one would rather play 1.6 than Source, but I don't get why I would buy the package just to have Source and 1.6, while I probably wouldn't play both.

Personally, I always prefered DoD anyway, Avalanche was a funnah map

5.2 ftw

Does anyone have TF2? It seems like a pretty fun game, I may consider buying it.

Agreed. I play on that game waaaay too much. But it is addictive fun. 20 hours as spy... that says it all really.

"Spies... bloody useless". Don't worry, 15 hours as a medic redeems my status as a non back-stabbing douchebag.

Too bad they've only done one or two actually good games.

Sayyyy whaaaat?

Yeah, I dunno what I was saying. HL1 has been their only good game so far.

You clearly haven't played Portal. Granted, they weren't the ones who came up with the idea of that game, they were the ones who refined it, much like how HL was a refined version of many of the FPS games that came before it.

That is understatement. :/

Portal is boring, I played the demo. I've just bought TF2, though. I'm trying to join a server, waiting for data to download from it right now.

That's the brilliance of Portal, though... the structure. And that's something you can't appreciate from playing the demo.
