In honor of Steam finally coming to Macs, Valve is giving Portal away free to all PC and Mac users until May 24th. So log into Steam and get to downloading. The servers are pretty hammered right now so it may be hard to download it. But you have until the 24th to get your free download.

Very awesome, thank you my man! Haven't fired up Steam in quite some time, but I want some Portal.

Thanks for the heads up.    :)

I need an account, right now.

So do I have it forever or until the 24th? (stupid question I know)

" So do I have it forever or until the 24th? (stupid question I know) "

Well, I guess this is as good a time as any to find out if Portal will run on my laptop.

wow, valve are amazing.

And of course, Mac steam is out too today

thats cool I guess - the orange box is still worth it - just do it!!

nice

Gah, Steam has been Macerised.
 
Also, I would download Portal, but I've already bought it twice >_> 

Wow I don't have Steam but I might have to change that for free Portals.

Oh man I'm definitely  getting this.

Goddamn you Valve. How do you be so fly?

That's what I thought, but.. no way in hell will it run on an EEE. Besides I already played the 360 version to death. "

Thanks, mate! Wouldn't have noticed this otherwise!

Amazing, I was just considering buying the PC version recently so I could S rank the game again. This is awesome :D 
 
I love Valve so much.

Awesome dude, thanks!

Bit gutted that the civ pack i bought in the sale is not mac compatible even though its now released as a steam works title

THANKS!!!

I'm just excited that whenever I decide to try out Mac OS X I can test out some games.  
  
And, Portal's rad. 

" Bit gutted that the civ pack i bought in the sale is not mac compatible even though its now released as a steam works title "

Sweet. Been looking to play through it again. :) 
 
EDIT: It isn't working for me. I'll try in a little while.

Got it

Awesome! Got it!

WOW amazing! Thanks Valve, and thanks op for the heads up :D:D:D:D

I'd still download it. Or at least just have it on your account. One day you'll have a PC that will run it and it'll be there waiting for you to play. "

I'll have to get a new PC before I can play it, but I can go ahead and get it for the future. I already have two versions of it for the 360!

That's pretty cool, giving all new mac users a free game.

I played Portal on the Xbox 360, but I heard the PC version has updates and tons of free challenges, so nice! (Also, this means I have officially acquired every Orange Box game on both PC and 360 - win!)

PC's can get it, too. "

bump

I've beaten Portal several times, but now I can see the fucking new ending and get mah G-mod on with Portal.  
 
This is the best day ever.
