Steam Orange Box Gifts.

Any recently released game you get new these days, regardless of content, is $50 or more these days. So yes, it's the price of one game.

pilot, quit complaining and buy the game. this isn't a gameboy game. hell, even some n64 games that lacked in content like this were upwards of $70.

Just because most games are expensive doesn't mean I should allow myself to pay more than I think something is worth. I don't think I've ever paid over $50 for a game and I don't intend to change that any time soon.
As I said, I'm looking on eBay for cheaper prices and so far it looks promising. If I'm lucky I could probably get it almost as cheap as $30.

Yeah, in five months...

You'll be surprised what eBay can do for the people that keep a close eye on it. I got C&C3 Kane Edition for $29 only a month or two after release. It's $60 MSRP.

Edit: What did I tell you? eBay owns. I got the Orange Box for $35 just as I wanted.

I would blame Steam if that happened. The one I bought is factory sealed from a "Power Seller" with a good rating, so I highly doubt the seller would be to blame. So far everything I've done on eBay has been good, so I trust eBay a lot more than most non-eBayers like yourself do. You'll find out if it works when I get it next week.

BTW, if it's $40 for the box direct from the factory, why is it $50 just for the key? Where would someone buy it direct from the factory anyway? As for me, I got it for $5 cheaper for the same factory quality so I'm happy.
