Valve and the Big Black Box

[raVid]

Valve, in their infinite wisdom, has decided to cancel their Big Black Box offering. Now you have to buy the full Orange Box version and basically pay more to buy all your steam games over again, just to get the three new games. Or you have to buy the games individually on steam, which is really bad news for us bandwidth starved people down here.

That's swack... I'm not happy with Valve & customer service sucks as well...

Well anyone who went through the horror of the original Half-Life 2 installation debacle shouldn't be too suprised by this.

Btw, when is Portal & Episode 2 coming out?
