You know what? Valve ROCKS! But it as to put up with the worst fans of anyone, this is an amazing deal, but i just know that someone's gonna find some way to complain about it "Yes you're giving us every single game you've ever made for half the price of one of them, BUT IT'S NOT HALF LIFE 2 EPISODE 3! WAAAH WAAAH!"
just saying a rough estimate if you sold all these games sperately (here in Australia) you would have a number between 300$ and 450$ so my question is how can i get this amazing deal please note that i live in Australia
The great thing about Steam is once you buy the game/games, you own them forever. So buy the pack now (it is an AMAZING deal) and once you get a better computer you will be able to download them all onto that computer (and every computer you log into your steam account from actually).Doti said:
Also I bet your computer could play the first Half-Life, and a few of the older ones in that pack.
Actually, Valve has found multiple times through sales that games on sale turn a larger profit.TheIronRuler said:
Also, it's just another way to make money. EA's approach is to milk everything for what it's worth, not give two shits about who's buying or their issues, and basically focusing solely on the money.
Think of it as a Pizza Parlor. EA charges for the food, the condiments, the bathrooms, seating at the tables, rarely lowers prices, and treat customers like criminals.
Valve offers food at regular discounts, provides extras for free, and basically try to make it worth our while, and treats customers like people(well, most of the time. Sometimes they have their moments [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/comics/stolen-pixels/7827-Stolen-Pixels-211-This-is-Not-Funny]).
I'd be interested to see yearly earnings of both Valve and EA. To see how much each is making. Doubt they share this info, it'd be great to know if EA's methods are making a decent buck. I suppose they are, since EA's so big and publishes so many games, but still.
Pretty sure it's already been answered, but yes. If you buy it now, you can download them whenever you want, wherever you want. Just sign into the account you used to buy them and download. If the games are mac compatible, you can sign in to Steam on a mac, download them on that and play that way!Doti said:
Suffice to say that my mouse was on the add yo cart button faster than the human brain can process that command.
Is this deal still going on? It says $49.99 for me.
But even at that price, that's still a crazy-awesome deal.
EDIT: Never mind, I'm stupid and thought the thread said $24.99 and not £24.99.

Gaaawwwd... dayum.
As it happens, I already own all the games I want from that list. But still... awesome stuff.
...
Heh. I just had a mental image of the EA executives in charge of that new Origin digital distribution thing. They were all sitting around a meeting room looking distinctly despondent.
