Will you be buying Half Life 2 through Steam

[Locust]

I want to get a quick tally on whether or not people will buy through steam. I sure know I am so I can play cs:source early. Plus I dont like VU. If maybe just post so.

 

[Wicked Spider]

dont think many ppl here like VU
i'd get it through steam if the prices were lower.
i'll wait for the boxed version.... waited a year + for HL2 i can wait some more at leat u get a nice box with it

 

[AntiAnto]

No... I want the damn box and the damn instruction book!!!!!

 

[Locust]

But you will get Counter Strike Source like three weeks early!!!

 

[lans]

I'm buying silver edition (steam)

 

[Locust]

I figure I will just buy the add-ons later after I get the bronze.

 

[Petabyte]

I don't know yet. Answers "maybe".

 

[Locust]

alot of ppl are buying through steam

 

[Someone]

Probably still a "maybe" for me as well....

 

[Petabyte]

Haha someone, I like the quote in your sig.

 

[Locust]

it is either yes or no. If you are undecided, dont vote

 

[EC]

I'll be buying the Silver package through Steam tomorrow as soon as I get home. I can't wait to play! I just need to be able to get my 9800pro.

 

[Gorgon]

No, I am getting the hard copy. (CE)

 

[Locust]

true that. I might get a job just to get an x800 pro

 

[Locust]

VU is going to get screwed I have a feeling. Maybe those greedy bastards will finally get what they deserve.

 

[Locust]

When will we be able to buy the steam packages? will it be at 12:00 tonight or some time tomorrow?

 

[Citizen 1150421]

hell yes..
the gold has so many more more tit-bits that are cool

whats the valves back catalogue? is that that huge behind the scene book?

 

[The.Spiral]

LOL.
It's all the previous games released by Valve.

 

[blahblahblah]

Retail. I don't think HL2 is worth 49.95 through steam. If I buy retail for the same price (possibly less), I don't have to look through PDF files and don't have to waste several CD-R's backing up HL2. Plus I'm not a big fan of needlessly increasing the profits of a corporation.

 

[Hyperion2010]

personally I dont like VUG, I want to repay Valve for their hard work, I want CSS, and its just a hassle to buy it, though i migh get one later as a keepsake....

[Hazar]

I'm getting it through steam, the retailers here will probably get it in like 2 weeks after it comes out

 

[satch919]

Of course. If there's a chance that I can play it earlier than the retail copy, then I'm gonna buy it over Steam. I'll be getting the HL2 Gold Package tomorrow.

 

[Ownzed]

I have a thing for boxes and cds.

 

[covertghost]

Getting Mine through Steam Also. I can upgrade to the Silver package for only $10 and I will be getting alot more game for the buck compared to the retail box.

 

[DannoHung]

I'm buying Steam and goin' for the Gold.

Half-Life 2 Hat! Half-Life 2 Hat!

 

[merc]

ya i am, already canceled my ebgames preorder and about to buy the game tomorrow WOOO CANT WAIT SILVER PAKKAGE!

-merc

 

[B3@$T]

I'm going to wait for retail cuz I like the fact of having the cd. Also cuz my account got banned that had cz over steam purchase and I dont want to have to accounts afterwards. heh
