Portal Free on steam until 20th September
« on: September 17, 2011, 07:26 AM »
If you haven't played Portal now is your chance.

Install Steam, click on Store and find Portal. You can download/install for free until 20th Sept.

If you don't already have a steam account go to:

http://store.steampowered.com/about/

Install Steam and set up an account (you don't need to give credit card details to download free games).

Hi Carol...

I'm not seeing Portal for free on Steam.  Is it a UK special?  Found lots of Portals, but none free.

Thanks,

PK

Just has an "Install game" button with no price, that is from DK.

Thanks much Jibz (and lanux128), that link worked perfectly.  I'm new to Steam and could not find the dl anywhere.  Appreciate the help.

Hmm, first time I played Portal. Lost in level 15. Sigh... not my kind of games.
