[QUOTE=gav618;33235678]i guess this means dota 2 won't be free on launch. Good.[/QUOTE]
If it was, they'd completely undercut themselves, they would probably sell <20,000 copies (from those without steam accounts)
[QUOTE=CWalkthroughs;33235817]I didn't think Gabe used blue text in his emails...[/QUOTE]
All Valve employees do, Gabe included.
They should add [Fake] instead of and [Updated] tag to the headlines instead of keeping fooling people.

[QUOTE=TheCactusman;33235083]Who would Valve send copies of Dota 2 and Portal 2 to anyway?[/QUOTE]
Well I don't have DOTA2, so it could be me.
This new development is worrying. Thankfully my passwords and secret questions have been changed.

Nobody has DoTA 2.
Free copies of Portal 2? By god...
I still trust Valve's encryption scheme.
I want Dota 2.

Or a copy of Portal 2 [sp] to give to my special someone[/sp]

I do.
[QUOTE=Errorproxy;33236024]Nobody has DoTA 2.[/QUOTE]
Lots of people have the DoTA2 beta.
I know it's fake, but if nothing got leaked why would they give out free copies of games? And good games at that?
[QUOTE=dgg;33236162]Lots of people have the DoTA2 beta.[/QUOTE]no they don't :(
Free copies of Portal 2? HAH you must be joking.
If this was Origin, they'd first be angry at us for no reason.
Then they'd [I]take[/I] all our BF3 copies.

[QUOTE=usaokay;33236018]I thought DoTA2 is F2P.
wait a damn minute...[/QUOTE]
I HOPE NOT
I thought it was an obvious fake, I've never seen a GabeN email with a signature.
I assume they'll give the free games out to anyone who had a CC attached to their account at the time of the hijacking.
I'm like 85% sure Dota 2 would've been F2P anyways, so I guess people get free Portal 2.
We aren't going to get a free anything, it doesn't make sense to give out rewards because of this.
[QUOTE=Phycosymo;33234972]I wonder who they are giving out those copys to.[/QUOTE]
I'm guessing only for people who have brought Valve related products or have a credit card used on steam

Hah. Hah. Fat Chance.
[QUOTE=Zedicus Mann;33239818]Hah. Hah. Fat Chance.[/QUOTE]

You're a liar and you know it!
Damnit garry.
[QUOTE=Ermac20;33235383]i love gabe he's such a saint[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Saint Nicholas.
I don't understand why ANYONE would expect free games? Jesus Christ you kids can be greedy as hell sometimes.
"Hey, someone tried to hack us. They stole a database but we had predicted that unlikely possibility and hashed AND salted all your personal information, so it's pretty much safe and nothing bad happened."
Seriously.
That's like telling you they stole a truck that had a safe that had a safe that had a safe that had a safe that had a safe that had a diamond safe that had an unbreakable glass safe in it that had your credit card numbers which you can call instantly know if someone used without your approval and can cancel out the payment.
Why is everyone flipping out over this
