    Yesterday, my friend just bought plenty of it with $2.50 due to he was buying with friends as well.
    But the time-limit is so short >.<!! 2 Hours only. It makes me can't buy it because I only know this just now.

    It's fantastic! Easily worth $30, let alone $2.50. If you ask me, you have nothing to lose even if you don't like it; it's less than the price of most beers. :p

    In all honesty, it is one of the most fun multiplayer games I have ever played.

    wish i didn't already own 2 copies of the game lol. i don't think anyone who was even remotely interested in TF2 would've held out this long considering there were several orange box deals throughout its existence. but this is a great opportunity for someone who never got around to pick this up the first (or the 2nd) time :p

    Nope, the price is only for another half hour. Nov 2nd refers to the end of the Halloween event, with new hats and maps and such.

    it was £2.50 yesterday and also the day before but only for a couple of hours each. got to keep an eye on steam as they always tease with quick special offers.
