That's how much money Valve made today.
(assuming everyone bought Bronze)
So apparently there are 4623 players on CS:S at the moment... Does this include the beta? or is that closed now?

a) Whoever did cs_office did quite the amazing job. Check out the pictures hanging on the wall. They're awesome. Example? "Spamming: What you lack in quality, you make up in quantity." They;re great. Also, you can see the insane detail if you blow up a computer. You can see the video card and sound card they used. Crazy.
b) Dust 2 looks like a castle.

They don't have localised costs through Steam. When I saw "Bronze - $49.95 + tax" I thought I was gonna get screwed with the tax. But the tax came to 0.
So I paid AUD$70.47 for HL2 (which I admittedly don't have yet).. Games usually launch in Australia for $90.. and I'm sure HL2 will launch for $100 just like doom did.
So Valve got their USD$50 from me, but they would have been well in their rights to charge me AUD$90 since they are obliged to charge the same as retail outlets. I'm sure EB Australia and others won't be too happy. Thanks for the stuff up Valve? =)
Now, if only I wasn't getting errors when trying to launch CS:S.. wtf? "Failed to set video mode - restting to defaults. Game will now restart with the new video settings" So it opens it in windowed mode and I can play in windowed mode.. If I try fullscreen I get a "memory could not be read message" and it terminates. Maybe I owe Valve a little more moneys!?!

Also. I'd like CS Assault for old times sake but I do agree that it just degenerates into a camp fest.
