Bonus: it also seems that the episodes have been rolled into the base game. Full details of the anniversary update.
Neat, but.
Even HL: Alyx left us with just as much of a cliffhanger as the end of HL2 Episode 2...
Cool, but I already bought it like 20 years ago and still have it on steam
Ye gods, 18 years, 4 months for mine. You'd hope that they'd just automatically stop asking if I'm old enough to view store pages, right?
My account is so old I have (or had, before they normalized the format) a four digit steam ID. I "owned" Half Life 2 for like four months before it released thanks to getting a code free in the box with my Radeon 9800 Pro back in the day. For a short and glorious flash of time in the summer of 2004, I was guaranteed a copy of the most hotly anticipated game ever, even though nobody could play it yet, and also owned an example of the fastest video card on the planet. Damned if I didn't mow a fuckton of lawns and reinstall Windows and Outlook an a horde of septuagenarians' computers to afford that card.
And no, they do not stop asking about your age.
...Think it's too late to get a refund?
I don't think they can refund ATi Half Life 2 tokens.
They didn't even do refunds back then
So you're saying there's a chance...
Originally played on orange box on the 360, I’m surprised I didn’t already have it on steam. Glad I stumbled on this post
Holy crap, someone who actually didn't have it yet!
I mean I do, just not on steam
My steam account just turned 20. Fugggggg
Mine turns 20 in 2 days. Yikes.
Oh hell, mine too back in August. Guess I'll have to take it out drinking next year.
Oh wow, I just checked and mine turned 21 today! 🎊
Jesus Christ my steam account is old enough to drink in the US.
Yo after all this time I never bought episode 1 or 2. I'm playing the fuck outta it
This new edition concludes the Half-Life 2 development story, with never-before-seen concept art from Episode One and Episode Two, along with ideas and experiments for the third episode that never came to be.
Not that it should be a surprise to anyone, but is this the first time Valve has openly admitted that Episode 3 is officially cancelled?
Only those ideas and experiments never came to be. There's still hope
Sweeeeeeet! I had HL2 on my ancient Steam account that I lost ages ago, it feels right to have it back in my library all these years later.
The anniversary update sounds tempting, but I think I'll wait for HL2 RTX before replaying it.
Hell yeah! Commentary! Looks like I'm replaying it for the 100th time.
Huh? I wanted to see whether Portal 1 and 2 are free as well to recommend them to family and friends but for the life of me I can't figure it out. They don't show any info on purchasing them whether I'm logged in or not.
It says they're at full price to me; it's the HL2 anniversary, after all. The Orange Box as a whole is 90% off though.
Both are still showing up full price for me, if that helps.
Same, no sale
