I still don't even have Portal 2. Was hoping on getting it for Xbox soon, but my bro took the money and preordered Gears of War 3 to get the beta. :saddowns:
[sp]Great beta, though. But much rather have Portal 2[/sp]
With the PS3 version, does that mean you have 2 PC versions?

They were custom made for the 'champions' of the ARG.
commandhat is totally downplaying his huge contributions to the community. We kept a close eye on everyone participating. There were about 15 people who by far stood out as making significant sacrifices to help the ARG progress, and we wanted to do something special for them.
Congrats commandhat, Live2becool, Dougley, and the rest! :D

So I wake up this morning with my dad telling me I got a package.
"From who?"
"Bellevue, Washington."
Having worked on the Valve ARG I was excited - that was Valve HQ's basic location!
"Hurry up and open it! I want to see what they sent you..."
When I entered the living room I could immediately see why - the box was as big as a foldout chair.
Inside was:
(1) Aperture Science Messenger Bag;
(1) Pair of Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube Fuzzy Dice;
(1) Weighted Companion Cube;

It's hard to see the signatures so I got some (dark, sorry :( ) shots of the signed PC copy.

Crappy quality pics because android.
Also, oh god sorry for no direct links, Google Picasa is stupid and won't let me embed the pics in Facepunch

Right on… Good for you. :D
[B][url=http://valvearg.com/wiki/Razer]Wait what?! Why Razer?[/url]
Round Two![/B]
I received another delivery, this time from [URL="http://www.razerzone.com/"]Razer[/URL]!
I don't have pictures of this at the moment, but I got all this:
Razer Basic Messenger Laptop Bag
Razer L33T Pack
DeathAdder 3500-Black Edition- FRML Packaging (<-- A mouse!)
Goliathus Alpha L - Speed (Fragged) (<-- A mouse pad!(Huge as heck too))
Lycosa Mirror Keyboard - US Layout - NASA (?!?! NASA?!)
Carcharias Gaming headset-NASA Packaging (AWESOME headphones - Pretty sure these cost around $100 too)
If I had to guess, I'd say all the other 8 "Valve visitors" got this same stuff too!
Facepunch did at least a third of the work on the ARG, they deserve to know what happened after the fact, especially to the guys who visited Valve HQ.
I'm going to smash my head against my desk until I stop being so jelly.
happy enough to just play the game. Dont need all that extra crap.
lol coooooooooooooooool
[QUOTE=MrParalegal;30102827]happy enough to just play the game. Dont need all that extra crap.[/QUOTE]
I sort of have to agree. I had a good keyboard and mouse before all this. Just the action of sending me free nearly $200 in stuff is cool, though!

I have to agree commandhat. Valve/IndieDevs/Razer were all very very cool about this, they were all very generous.
Well played all, well played. :D
