Official Half-Life 2 gold, Release date announced.

I've been using Steam since December and have had no problems with it so I don't mind Steam being used to play HL2 as I can just backup the GCF files for HL2 onto a dvd or 2.

I'm either getting steam's silver pack or the collector's edition... I don't want a bazillion CDs, and I want that Half-Life: Source...

However I don't want a T-shirt or booklet thing, and steam's silver doesn't come with those and costs 20 bucks less than the collector's pack... But you don't get an actual DVD of the game... *strokes beard*

I've already pre-loaded HL2 from steam though, I'll probably go with steam...
