OK... *deep breathe* here goes...
Alrighty as with most people im interested in purchasing/pre-ordering a copy of HL2. BUT so far most available-for-pre-order sites ie. eb games, gamestop etc, (even VALVe) do not have any information on what all the basic HL2 box comes with, namely Your Info says CS:Source is included with just HL2 then you have the option of getting all the "goodies" in the Special Edition like "Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike: Source, Half-Life 1: Source, a Half-Life 2 T-shirt and a Prima book sampler".

The reason i make this point is compare item A)Gamestop's info on HL2, and what they say is included with item B) Special Edition. Just looking for clerification, even a post stating CS:Source is included with the $50 us package, as well as the $80 us. (gamestops prices). I mean i can easily afford Special Edition, but id only be getting it to spoil myself where as if i got all i really was looking forward to which is HL2 + CS:Source, id save myself $30's us.

Appreciate your time spent reading, anticipating a response
