Well, seeing as I've been stuck with a POS for the last couple of years, incapable of running HL2, I'm a little behind. For this time I've played some CS 1.6 and Day of Defeat which I enjoy. Now that I have a new laptop coming, capable of running HL2, I was looking on a deal for the source games. What I found on Steam was a pretty sweet deal coming in at $79.95
Source Premier Pack
Includes: Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike: Source, Half-Life: Source, Day of Defeat: Source, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, Half-Life 2: Lost Coast, Half-Life Deathmatch: Source, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Portal, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Team Fortress 2
Can anyone say whether or not this package is worth the money. I mean, it's a lot of games, but I'm not sure if I would play each and every one of them, but it would be nice to have. I also am wondering if anyone knows a way to get this deal retail for cheaper. I actually saw the Orange Box for $25 at bestbuy.com here. Its sold out now(), but is any other store have a deal close to this.
Anyway, can anyone who has this or similar tell me if its worth dropping the 80 spot for this collection.

I say it's worth it, I've played each and every one of these games and loved em'

Not really a deal...if im not mistaken isnt Half life deathmatch & lost coast already free? Also you don't really need half-life: source either...
I would just pickup the orange box for $50. Unless you really really want DoD because thats the only thing you wont get from that list that isn't in the orange box. -
"Something: Source" games are buggy rehashes that play worse than the originals. The only exception is Counter-Strike: Source, but you've already got the original.
I'd get the Orange Box. -
by the way
orange box was on the sale for 25 bucks at bestbuy by today....
so:
hl2 lost coast and deathmatch=free
hl2/ hl2episode/ portal/ team fortress2=$25
--------------------------------------
Half-Life Deathmatch: Source, Counter-Strike: Source, Half-Life: Source, Day of Defeat: Source, = needed
i think it's not a great deal... since i could just get source package and hl2 stuff i mentioned it at the top. also you can wait for christmas package -
I think I may end up doing buying the Orange Box, but I'm just wondering If I'm gunna wanna play CS and DOD Source.
I think I'll be alright playing that but CS and DOD are up tehre in things i wanted.
Edit: Garrys mod is looking pretty good too, any opinions on getting that as well? -
Version 9 of Garry's Mod is still a free mod. Try before you buy.

O thanks for the info, I will definetly try that out in that case
Source Premier Pack(Half Life) - Deal?
