Happy birthday, Gordon! At this rate, he'll have a zimmerframe for Half-Life 3!

The Half-Life franchise has come a long way since then, accumulating a huge total of 20million units to date. To celebrate this glorious birth, Valve are now offering the game for just $0.98! You see, it was released in 1998... Clever that!

 

To pick up your copy for a mere 98cents (although if you don't already have it you really should do yourself some bodily harm) head on over to the Half-Life Steam store page. The offer is on until 12:01pm PST on November 21st!
