I am really tempted to purchase the silver steam package. I just hate to pay that much money without receiving a tangible product. I have a DVD burner so I could possibly fit HL2, HL:S, CS:S, and DOD:S on one DVD which is convenient. It is either that package or paying 20 more dollars for the retail collector’s edition. Humm............. |

I dunno maybe its just me...but I think animated avatars are kind annoying...no offense though....
Well the Gold seems tempting all that HL2 swag...plus a chance ( i doubt I'll ever get the chance) to visit Valve... however I think I too will get the retail version...better to pay for something I can get my hands on and play rather than wait around till its on steam... |

With Gold do you get three posters or one of three?
It's tempting but I have no $$$ and that is a lot of dough they're asking for. |
