Preorder Orange Box


All you Rapscallions who said you would purchase Orange Box at a store, I LAUGH IN YOUR FACE. WELL, PERHAPS NOT PHYSICALLY INSIDE OF YOUR FACE, BUT RATHER AT IT. NOT TO SAY YOU DONT HAVE PRETTY FACES, I AM SIMPLY STATING THAT I SHALL BE LAUGHING AT THEM. MOSTLY BECAUSE THEY BELONG TO FOOLS.

Anywho, I just pre-ordered Orange Box through Valve's download client, Steam, and am reaping the benefits.

LIST OF AWESOME BENEFITS

  1. You get Peggle Extreme thrown in for free.
  2. 10% off of the $49.95 regular price (comes in at about $45)
  3. PARTICIPATION IN THE BETA TEST OF TEAM FORTRESS 2 (Sept. 17)

So, remember all of you who decided to buy it at a "store"? Why not visit www.steampowered.com, download Steam, and pre-purchase Orange Box that way?

I'm actually going to get it in the store. Despite all the advantages, I just feel better about having a hard copy. I have a history of terrible computer problems and I just get paranoid about these things. Plus, I might not get it til early 08. I really want this, but there's just so much else this fall/winter.

Also, WiC next week!

CHRISTOPHER.


DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW STEAM WORKS?


YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT.


YOU CAN LOG INTO YOUR ACCOUNT ON ANY COMPUTER.


IT SHOWS ALL THE GAMES YOU HAVE BOUGHT.


IT LETS YOU REDOWNLOAD AND REINSTALL GAMES THAT IT KNOWS YOU HAVE ALREADY PURCHASED.


NO POINT IN HAVING A CD.


You'll understand more when you actually install the games and you work with Steam.

I also really don't care enough to buy it on steam, so that's why we're getting a CD! Cause I too feel the need to have a hard copy of everything. And yes, I know how Steam works....

Tusken the Raider said...

when i dont care enough about something i usually sit at home and do as little as possible about it, rather than taking the time out of a day to get a ride to a store and purchase something.

perhaps we have different perceptions of the concept.

HAVEANICEDAY:-)

Trevor Kindel said...

Ok.... Well, let me rephrase that then....


I care enough about the game to buy it in the store, and I like hard copies and don't trust my computer enough to keep the game safe. And yes, I know once you buy it on steam, you can redownload it over and over, but I really just want to install it instead of waiting about an hour or two to redownload it (though I'm sure my internet connection is much faster than that).

Get it? Good.
