 <title>Valve Releases &#039;Complete Pack&#039; with Left 4 Dead and About a Billion Other Games for $100</title>

 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you&#039;re anticipating Valve&#039;s upcoming zombie shooter Left 4 Dead (and if you&#039;re a gamer, then you probably are), then Valve has an offer it hopes you can&#039;t refuse. The publisher has &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gamertell.com/gaming/comment/valve-complete-pack-now-available-on-steam/&quot;&gt;released&lt;/a&gt; its Valve Complete Pack on Steam, a collection of titles which, if purchased separately, would run $235. Valve&#039;s asking price checks in at less than half that at $100.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition to Left 4 Dead, the Benjamin buys you Counter Strike, Counter Strike: Condition Zero, Counter Strike: Source, Day of Defeat, Day of Defeat: Source, Deathmatch Classic, Half Life, Half Life 2, Half Life 2: Deathmatch, Half Life 2: Episode One, Half Life 2: Episode Two, Half Life 2: Lost Coast, Half Life Deathmatch: Source, Half Life: Blue Shift, Half Life: Opposing Force, Half Life: Source, Peggle Extreme, Portal, Richochet, Team Fortress 2, and Team Fortress Classic. In other words, enough titles to give your broadband connection a good workout.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strike&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?sduid=0&amp;amp;t=1013497&quot;&gt;Word on the web&lt;/a&gt; is that you can gift duplicate titles you already own, but if that&#039;s you&#039;re intention, you may want to confirm this with Steam before plunking down the cash (we&#039;ll post an update if we receive confirmation).&lt;/strike&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;em&gt;Update November 21, 2008&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Four days after sending in our support inquiry, Steam Support has informed us that gifting duplicate titles only applies to a handful of specific situations, none of which appear to include the Complete Pack. More information &lt;a href=&quot;http://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=4502-TPJL-2656&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
