Half-Life 2 box with HL2: Deathmatch -- $7.90

I still have a HL2 gift to give away.  I can't even get rid of that.  Everyone has it already.

Well except my brother.  He wants it but his computer doesn't even have a AGP slot, much less a PCIe slot.

I still have a HL2 gift to give away.

Ditto.

Yeah, I have HL2 and EP1 to "gift" to someone. Great.

I would really like to get Kings Bounty, but I've been spending too much recently. grrr...

What does that mean? You have a copy of the game to give away?

What does that mean? You have a copy of the game to give away?

When you have a "gift" (as it's referred to over Steam), it's an extra copy of a (whatever said) game to give to someone else.

What does that mean? You have a copy of the game to give away?

Yep.  You just basically give a license for the game to another Steam profile of your choosing.

I got a license for HL2 with my Radeon 9800 XT.  Then HL2 came with the Orange Box.  That's how I got my second license.  It shows up in Steam on the games page as "1 Gift."

What happened was if you owned HL2 and EP1 from before and then bought the Orange Box, you got extra copies of them to give away.

Yeah, same here.

I got both HL2 and HL2: Ep 1 still as "Gifts" b/c of the above.

It took me forever to get HL2, and until I did I messed around with it a bit on my brother's Steam account. Eventually I bought the Orange Box. I still need to play through HL2.
