I didn't even know about Machinarium until Ryom's post.

You really must not pay attention anymore, it got a lot of press.

Pretty much. I keep up with hardware, but not with games anymore. Usually I hear about games on here, if anywhere.

But the other possibility is that I saw something about Machinarium, but just forgot about it. Considering I'm unemployed at the minute, I'm busier than when I was in the lab...

You can get 10 copies of HL2 for $20.

This is useful if you have ever felt the need to buy 10 copies of HL2.

All of my wildest dreams have come true...

I don't think that I know 10 people that I could gift HL2 to...

It's regarded as one of the best games of all time, the best FPS game of all time, the best PC game of all time. Not to mention that its been down to $5 plenty of times, comes with the orange box which also is among the top on the above lists.

It's hard to find PC gamers that don't at least own this game, even if they don't enjoy it.

I've purposely set aside some cash sticks for the holiday season, when there should be some crazy deals on Steam as mentioned by other people on this forum already. Just got to be careful not to be sucked in to buying 100 games for $3, all the ones you'll never play! :nudgenudge

I agree. All the PC gaming friends I have already own Half-Life 2, which is why I still have a Gift copy sitting in my Steam account.

I remained hopeful that Half-Life 2 was going to be everything everyone was saying it was... and it wasn't. It was a pretty decent game, don't get me wrong... but it just utterly failed to grab me. Mods are what makes Valve games.
