Bonus: it also seems that the episodes have been rolled into the base game. Full details of the anniversary update.
I remember when halflife 1 became free
Hell yeah! Commentary! Looks like I'm replaying it for the 100th time.
Yo after all this time I never bought episode 1 or 2. I'm playing the fuck outta it
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.
It's a better deal to just get the Orange Box bundle because it is 90% off.
Plus, you still get the Proof of Purchase in TF2!
When I look at the steam store Portal has a price tag of $9.99.
Portal didn't come out until 2007 with the orange box, which also had hl2: episode 2 (and tf2), but the base game of hl2 came out standalone in 2004. This giveaway is a celebration of hl2's 20th anniversary, so maybe they'll do a portal giveaway in 2027.
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.
