Valve sells Half-Life for 66p

via Computer and Video Games


Believe it or not, Half-Life, one of the most influential shooters ever, is ten years old this week. To celebrate, Valve's announced that it's selling the original PC game for 98 cents (or 66p) on Steam. No box and manual though, tsk.

"Launched 10 years ago today, Half-Life was greeted with overwhelming review scores (Metacritic of 96%), earned over 50 Game of the Year Awards, and birthed a franchise with over 20 million units sold to date," reads Valve's official statement.

"The special 10 year anniversary price is available via Steam until 12:01 pm PST on November 21. For more information or to purchase Half-Life for 98 cents, please visit www.steamgames.com."

And that's just about all the information you need. We'd dig out the original game over the weekend to celebrate, but we've just got too many new games sitting on the pile. Sorry.
