Orange -> Green

[Evo]

The latest rumblings about the internet is that Orange is now greater than Green. At least that is what Doug Lombardi is telling me! Okay, okay, enough of me throwing some innovation into this news post, lets get down to the hard facts; these are that over the next few days any Orange Box related product is going to save you money![br]Following is the information straight from Doug's keyboard

Games, Soundtrack on Sale this Weekend[br]All flavors of The Orange Box as well as the official soundtrack are available for huge savings this weekend from leading online and retail outlets around the world.[br]"Still Alive" just $0.89. A digital copy of The Orange Box soundtrack is available now from Amazon.com for just $7.99, a two dollar savings off the regular price. And MP3's of the individual songs, including both versions of Portal's "Still Alive", may be purchased for just $0.89 per song from Amazon.com.[br]If you still haven't played the games inside The Orange Box, retailers around the world -- including GameUK and Best Buy USA -- are running incredible specials on the PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360 versions of The Orange Box.[br]The PC version may also be found at a 25% savings during the Steam "Store Wide" Year End sale happening now through New Year's Day. Speaking of the Steam Year End Sale, the "Valve Complete Pack" is now just $74.95 through New Year's Day - a 25% savings on the Pack that includes every Valve game offered on Steam, including The Orange Box.

For those who didn't cotton on by the way, 'Green' is commonly used to talk about the mighty dollar, and with Orange Box related products saving you money at this time of year, we can see that the Orange Box is greater than the dollar!

And I'm sure many guys are going to come in here and brandish the 'GCF Scape' card above their head GlaDly, however some of you do prefer the snazzy looking retail copy with a nice shiny CD. Some of us just get a soft spot for that kind of thing...

Hey, that's great. With all the money I'll save, I'll have more left over to spend on eggs, flour, chocolate, milk, and waffle mix.
