    	    <description><![CDATA[To be fair to steam, the sales that they put on are some of the best in the world. You can get games for nothing if you can wait for them. Also I love the convenience of being able to pre-download it so it is ready the second it comes out. And I will always prefer my games being saved in the cloud instead of having to install it from a disk on different comps, which is useful for me going from my mum's to my dad's.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[<i>Quoted from RaCio</i>
		<blockquote>You can buy the two-pack with a friend and enjoy 20% discount, pretty nice imo</blockquote>
seriously, steam pricing and pricing in general is getting on my balls. 20% on that is nothing. I dont know how much longer the game will be (incl. replay-value co-op etc) than Portal 1, but I'm pretty fed up paying huge amounts of money for games which I know are sold for half the price in other/the neighbouring countries. It's just not right. Yes, I'll buy it as I love Portal and actually do want to support Valve, but when I see the game being available for like 35€ on a UK website, then on the steam store for 45€, and lastly in a local store for like 50€, I'm wondering whether something has gone dearly wrong in some people's heads.

edit: disregarding that, yes, 20% is decent.]]></description>

Yeah, 10% is kind of a small discount so saying it's preorder, the only thing you get is portal 1 (which EVERYONE has) and that Valve own steam.]]></description>
