Half-Life 2 Retail Standard
>_>

Out of Valve's current catalog, I'm missing about 2 or so games that aren't really worth even HAVING, and anything I acquired to complete (I guess that's just DoD:S) was cheap anyway

DoD:S on its own is $10, and that's assuming you bought it recently. That same $10 could have gotten HL2: Silver instead of Bronze, which includes far more than DoD:S.


Like what? Looking over the catalog, I'm only missing like...CZ, HL:S, HLDM:S. I bought DoD:S for about $5 iirc.

And back to MW2, the game is kinda disappointing. The story gets interesting in the second half but is kinda average overall. Badly told. Veteran is easier than the first (which was already fairly easy). MP is about the same though the abundancy of unlocks should keep you going even longer now (if it didn't before). Also noticed that the game sometimes pauses even if it's just people dropping, not just host switch. No reset if it's just drops though. Spec Ops is quite fun, though I imagine there's little replay value once you and your buddies finish it...

There's also CS, DoD, Deathmatch Classic, Ricochet, and Team Fortress Classic. All of these combined is worth more than a penny, which is what you would have spent extra by getting HL2 Silver instead of HL2 Retail plus DoD:S separately.

I bought DoD:S for about $5 iirc.

It costs $10 right, and I'm pretty sure it never dipped below that. Don't know if it was ever more.

It's been on sale for $5 in the past. Christmas sale last year IIRC.

Except I already have all that from HL...

Well, the three things you don't have are still worth more than a penny.
HL:S - HL1 with nicer looking water. The dam scene alone is worth that cent.
HLDM:S - HLDM with better netcode, smoother aiming, and ragdoll physics.
CZ: Worth screwing around for a little bit. Plus in my case, it's how I learned to play CS.

Totally not worth it, imo. I think it was available for $2.50 a while back and still didn't want it.

$2.50 is a lot more expensive than 1 cent. Plus I doubt all three of those were available for $2.50.

Clearly you are unfamiliar with the concept of a lucky penny.

[quote]I think I bought Bronze. I don't really remember but 70 seems too high for what I paid. But I do have Half-Life Source so I guess it worked out for me.


Maybe you bought that when it was $0.50 or whatever.

98 cents because it came out in 1998, that was to celebrate 10 years of half-life :)
