Portal WAS free on Steam

[Tom Bombadildo]

Maybe it was a limited time thing. Don't really care as I bought the Orange Box when it came out

 

[rdurbin]

ok cool guess it is free still, on search page it did say 19.99 though

 

[ShadowSoldier]

I'm downloading it. I just clicked install, and I just made a steam account...

 

[Joe88]

seems to be gone now, I already had it from the mac promo

 

[ShadowSoldier]

Just finished downloading. Pretty psyched, never got steam before until now, and I get to see if it's as fun as the 360 version.

 

[Quietlyawesome94]

Downloading as I type this. Watched my brother play this years ago on "His" 360. Now it's my turn.

 

[MSaki]

Huh saw this downloaded it

now im going to play


bbl...

 

[bowser]

WTF?!

I paid for this and now it's free? Valve better do a Nintendo and give me free stuff to compensate!

/sarcasm

For those of you who are saying that it is $19.99:

For one, normally the price is $9.99
Plus, the free Install button for Portal is about 200px above the Add to Cart button for the $19.99 Orange Box...

And considering the URL is...
"http://store.steampowered.com/checkout/addfreelicense/"

I'm assuming it's done on purpose.

And yay, now I can get rid of my standard copy and just use the steam version.

when I said 19.99 I was looking at the search list, for some reason its glitched, see the image below, I took this picture just now, its clearly says portal is 19.99 NOT orange box, when you actual click on portal it says free. Im new to steam so I dont know if the real price is 19.99 or 9.99

 

[Fear Zoa]

This is great, even though I got it the first time they did this (and that's how I started my steam collection)
Now I can yell at all my friends till they download it

 

[TwoBladedKnight]

Won it off steamgifts a week or so ago. Beat it in 2 hours. Still fun though.

 

[JackDeeEss]

awwww yeeeeeeeeeeeeah

 

[Paarish]

awwww yeeeeeeeeeeeeah

couldn't have said it better myself

 

[boktor666]

Ah my god, I never tried it, and it does seem so good. I'm going to give this a shot. Thanks for the heads up OP

 

[DarkStriker]

Their making this free just to feed people to buy portal 2! smart choice

 

[Sora de Eclaune]

I downloaded this. Great game, but when you go to see yourself in the portals with that trick where you put 2 portals in a corner, it lags so bad.

Hmm..Maybe I shouldn't have this game. I just messed up and was having trouble getting rid of turrets because I'm using a touchpad instead of a mouse.

 

[DaRk_ViVi]

This is one of the best game ever made, and 2 is even better! Thanks for the info (even if I already had it on Steam and on XBLA), I'm gonna let everyone know about this great "offer".
