Counter-Strike tournament also held at Game and Art Festival.
Gamers looking for a sweet bargain on Valve-made games can look forward to the end of the month, provided they're living in Malaysia. Distributor E-Club Malaysia is offering low prices for titles made by Valve, in conjunction with the upcoming Game and Art Festival 2011 in Malaysia. The details are as follows:
Date: May 27 to May 29
Venue: Subang Parade (ground floor), No.5 Jalan SS 16/1, 47500 Subang Jaya, Selangor
Time: 10 a.m. - 8 p.m.
Said offers include Left 4 Dead being sold for RM32 ($11), The Orange Box for RM45, Counter-Strike: Source together with Half-Life 2: Episode One for RM39, Left 4 Dead 2 for RM54, and Team Fortress 2 for RM25.
Other activities at the event include a Counter-Strike: Source Amateur Cup held on 28 May until 29 May. The winning team will get RM3,000, a copy of The Orange Box, and ROCCAT products.
What is so great about this? You can get much cheaper offers during Steam sales via direct download. Some are on offer now and I believe there will be a massive summer sales. E.G. L4D2 was only USD5-10 last year end. At that time I already owned L4D2 from retail purchase but I bought another digital download copy because I fancied the digital Prima Guide book. I only paid USD16.78 for the bundle. It is dirt cheap during Steam sales.
I'm so glad seeing this news... Clearly i'm a malaysian! And i look forward of getting the orange box...
