"Those who purchase via Steam will receive the final version of Counter-Strike: Source immediately," read Newell's posting. However, with the release date of Half-Life 2 still in limbo, Valve is offering a big incentive with its Steam packages, which will go on sale next week. One out of every 5,000 "Gold"-package purchasers will also win a trip to Valve's studios. It will get you Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike: Source, Half-Life 1: Source, Day of Defeat: Source, Valve's back catalog on Steam, a complete Prima strategy guide, three different Half-Life 2 posters, a Half-Life 2 hat, a Half-Life 2 postcard, Half-Life 2 stickers, and a Half-Life 2 soundtrack CD. The "Gold" package offers even more features. The "Silver" bundle will get purchasers Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike: Source, Half-Life 1: Source, Day of Defeat: Source (another classic-game remake), and "Valve's back catalog currently available on Steam." The "Bronze" package will include Half-Life 2 and Counter-Strike: Source. The other three Half-Life 2 packages will be available directly from Valve via its Steam download service. The Collector's Edition will also be on a single DVD and be bundled with a Half-Life 2 T-shirt and a Prima strategy-guide sampler.
The second retail version, the Collector's Edition, will come with Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike: Source, and Half-Life 1: Source, a remake of the original game with Valve's new engine. The standard edition will also have three different characters-hero Gordon Freeman, heroine Alyx, and the sinister G-man-on different versions of the box. Two will be the retail versions: a standard edition that will contain the game on six CDs, as well as its multiplayer version, Counter-Strike: Source. In a posting to the site, Newell revealed that there will be no less than five different Half-Life 2 packages. Once again, the press-release-adverse Gabe Newell has used to reveal new details about Half-Life 2.
