at 6:30AM EST it took nearly 10 minute to unlock the game...I think the Steam Servers are getting hammered. I tried getting onto Rage3d.com just before to see if there was anyone else having problems with HL2 like I was (there was eariler in the day) and their website is hammered with traffic. I'm hoping my 9700 isn't crapping out on me now.
Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?

The game's getting rave reviews. I'm debating buying it from Steam, but why is it $50-$60 when you don't get anything? Usually 1/3 of a price is retail markup, and then there's distributor's cuts and whatnot....
All those costs are gone, so why is the price so high?

From what I can tell, the basic retail version is the same as the steam bronze package. It includes HL2 and CS:Source, but not HL:Source or DOD:Source.
