Title: Half-Life for a Dollar

Note: If you don't like HL nerds bragging about HL games, then don't bother to post

Its time to get your crowbars if you didn't, because its alien-ass whooping time with the Freeman.

Usually I knows it looked down upon to advertise shit on these forums, but this deal is too good to be true (but it is). The award-winning game Half-Life, which was my main time-waster after finishing Quake in 1998, is now available on Steam(ing pile of shit) for only a $1.00. I don't know how much of a poor bastard you have to be, but Half-life with all it's mods for just a buck is a sweet, sweet deal. So go ahead, grab your copy today, the only catch is that its on Steam, and I can't tell you the list of things I hate about Steam. Today is HL's birthday, so I thought I might post it here, but the offer ends tomorrow.  :'(

What a load of crap. The Tremulous human looks sexier then this ugly guy. He looks like the dude in the green amour from UT, doesn't he?

But screw it. go get it, but! Why not try out the Natural Selection mod after you purchased it? For all you Tremulous members that hate the problems Tremulous has, play NS and I promise you'll be begging on your knees to play Tremulous again.



So, saying all of that, lets go play some more Tremulous.  >:D

A. Good deal.
B. How can you hate Steam? Do you prefer install-limiting forms of DRM?
C. ???
D. I won't say profit. Shit.

If you don't have HL already, what is your purpose?

Thanks Hendrich!

If you purchase it for 1 buck, are you able to play HL and their mods online forever?
Or the online playing has another fee?

Nope, once you bought it, ALL the mods AND online play is free, HL has like around 9000 servers where I am  :D.

Thing is about the mods, few mods require HL and another game to run, but there isn't alot of those out there like that, and most mods like that suck anyways. So go ahead, go mod-cray, I got 20Gb of Half-Life mods, maps and tools and it keeps growing :P.

Btw, check out http://www.moddb.com/games/half-life/mods (http://www.moddb.com/games/half-life/mods) to find a good list of HL mods you can download for free. ^^

I prefere Half Life 2 mods my self, but that's a bit impartial since I have never played Half Life 1 :( I really wish I did though, it is kind of too late now.  I'm stuck with not playing the whole series in order but at least there are Half Life 2 mods of Half Life1.  Thanks for the heads up any way (By the way half life 2 is about 15 bucks now).
