What, with Ubisoft bringing new games and EA joining in on Steam, no way. Steam is better than ever.
Cool, when is EA going to allow its games to be sold via Steam?

stupid steam wont take american express giftcards!
But too bad none of EA's games seems to be in the holiday sale.
They might be. The sale runs until Jan. 2nd and I think that most of the EA titles will be available in Jan. The real question is what date in Jan. they will be available. Hopefully not Jan. 3rd.
regular amex yes, apparently he's having a problem with the giftcard version though
You have to call them and register your full name and address with them.stupid steam wont take american express giftcards!
Same goes to TF2. Im quite surprised a lot of people in this thread that still havn't owned it.
oh, sweet find!If anyone's a fan of DX Ball or Breakout style games you should give the demo of Reaxxion a shot:

I saw it was 99 cents so I gave it a go, and within two levels I was sold. It's a hell of a lot of fun, and for 99 cents you can't go wrong.

That was quite the rant. It's too bad you don't want to shell out under $30 for what? 5 games? I would say that Portal and the Half Life episodes alone are worth that much, but TF2 added in is an amazing deal. I don't understand why if you almost never play MP games you are considering buying TF2?
Just spend the $5 on Portal and be happy.... it's worth so much more than that. I seriously can't believe that you are complaining about the Orange Box costing $27 though, you sir, are ridiculous. I'm glad you recognize that though
TF2 has one of the more mature communities I've played within.Most everyone interested will already own parts of the package, though, of course.
Portal and HL2:Ep2 are worth $18.48.
But I can't get past that every other game or package that's on sale that's a game of more than a year old is more than 10% reduced. WaW and others just released are at least 10% reduced. CoD4 (a year old) is 25% off.
Valve could have reduced Orange Box by more than 10%. It's hard to not take notice that they didn't. 25% off is $22.50. That sounds right.
I avoid MP games as I've realized that good ones are like crack. Trackmania was the first game to make me go to work later than planned. (I can't say to work late as I made my own hours at that time...)
TF2 sounds like it takes cooperation and coordination between allies, though, which I've read the on-line community lacks (I also saw this with TDU, great game... first game since TM to almost cause me to get to work late...) Although L4D appeared to be a hit, so maybe I'm wrong...
Eh, sorry, only 10% off of Orange Box is still bugging me...
It's also still hard to bite right now, knowing the fact that somewhere on the horizon is Ep3 (finally...)
Someone also said these low prices combat piracy. I think I'd agree.
Shoot, I bought STALER:SoC for $5 when I already have the disc (never installed it), and will probably buy Bioshock for $5 although I have that on disc as well (again, never installed it...)
I grabbed Bioshock for $5 and I got STALKER for $5 a little before this deal. Pretty awesome if you ask me.

How is Defense Grid, Nemesis?
