I would have liked to have had before the game was released, but I got my "Steam Gold" package today.
Everything came in a very large (about 14" wide, 12" deep and 2" thick) glossy box. Unfortunately the box itself was crumpled in shipping. Inside was a nice ball cap with the HL2 logo, the surprisingly thick strategy guide from Prima, the soundtrack CD (annoyingly in a plain white paper wrapper with no additional material instead of a jewel case with a booklet), a cute little postcard from City 17 (which, although glossy, isn't even on postcard stock), a nice large sticker (although I've no place to put it), and three posters (annoyingly folder, not rolled): Alyx, Gordon and the G-man. Or, in short: a book, a hat and a bunch of cheap crap. All told I was a little disappointed in the extras - they just seemed rushed and of generally poor quality. Still the price of the Gold Package over the silver wasn't that much - the book and the hat really cover the increase. The rest is just icing and considered like that is pretty sweet. ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:137298 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
