    That id Super Pack might be the best deal ever. I got it for 50 last year and it was a steal then too.

      It's pretty amazing that all of those games still work today -- I know they've been tweaked, but still...

      Not available over here ... sale is prohibited for most of the games in there.
      Now I'm sad. :[

      It's easily one of the best deals on Steam.

      I'm here trying to remember what was the launch price for Doom 3, lol. Hell, you wouldn't buy the D3 expansion for $23. ;p

        DOOM 3 didn't launch on Steam of course (Steam was in its infancy and it would be years before third party games were on there) but I think I paid $54.99 at GameStop when it came out. It was $50 at least.

        It was $55. I remember that really clearly. Never understood why it was $5 more than every other new AAA game released at the time. I suppose it was because it was Doom!

      It is tempting me severely. But I have bought compilation packs before out of nostalgia, and then realized that I am not really going to spend a lot of time playing those old games. Plus, I still have the CDs of most of those games lying around if I every really feel the need to install them and fire them up for a few minutes of nostalgia.

      I wish the OLD stuff was included with that.

          Yes, there was a whole bunch of stuff: side scrollers, puzzle games and even a ninja side scroller.

      It's really quite a bit of money for a bunch of rather old games that all the old timers, who would appreciate them most, already have. About the only games I don't have would be Quake 4 and ET:QW, neither of which that pack includes (understandably, but it's still worth pointing out).

      I think the Eidos pack would like to have a word with you. Jesus, there's so much goodness there, it's going to kill my bandwidth allowance for the month!
