Stuck for what to get your fellow geek for Christmas and don't have time to make it to the shops? Steam has just the answer for you!

I liked the idea of being able to give out the copies of ep1 and hl2, this is expanding on that.

I was looking into buying the valve complete pack but I was wondering what would happen to all the game I already bought.

surely any geeky type has ordered all their pressies online by now in order to get them delivered by xmas.

It seems like a logical progression - how long until you can get Steam gift cards I wonder...

That picture is rather amazing, you must be using all of B-T's bandwidth!

A lot of our forum members have been using this option already to give out old copies of Half-life 2 and Ep1. Really cool idea in my opinion.
