Having never played Portal before I'm guessing that there are a few others in the same boat, so grab it for free while you can via Steam:

The video advertising the promotion is completely awesome. Check the usual sources.

Perhaps after tomorrow we could turn this thread into a "What's good on Steam" thread.

I see a lot of full price games on there, but there's also a few cheapies. I wouldn't mind buying some stuff to play on my PC as long as it follows on the criteria of:-

a) Cheap
b) Good

At what point does this stuff become trolling? Asking for this envelope full of glitter I'm about to post to Valve.

I'm sure it's a fine thing but what it fucking isn't is Half-Life 3, Portal 3, or L4D3.

I couldn't really give a toss about HL3. I'd take the other two, though.

But then I think that any ideas that were new or interesting in it have probably been used and abused so many times now that I'll just be left with a slightly creaky shooter ( :hat: )
