I really want like a shiny metal boxed collectors' box of the Half-Life series...


Or even just everything from Valve... Like a shiny and real version of the Valve Complete Pack from Steam.

I guess then, they have to have every game they ever made inside the pack.

I'm stunned that more people are going to shelf buy this than just grab it off Steam. Why??

Makes no odds if you buy off the shelf or off steam in any of the scenarios you've posted so far.

I'm going to assume your house isn't furnished with things that look like complete shit but are very practical, right? Same reason. As people we like things that look nice... Game boxes look nice to me
