how big will the orange package be on steam ,

[mosehn]

i was just thinking if its 5 games in 1 thats gotta be like 15 gig download , or can you buy them all seperate over steam

 

[james.miller]

you can buy games seperately or in packages on steam. you can dowld each game in a package seperately too

I've found Steam to be quite quick when downloading game files.

I usually try to download big files over night, but I've had Steam pretty much max out my 2Mb line on a few occasions. So 15Gb's should only take a couple of hours?!

 

[mosehn]

yes but is there any estimate on how big the 5 in 1 will be , i reckon over 15 gig

 

[james.miller]

i dont know but when you buy a package it still downloads them seperately

whats this orange package on steam business?

Have i missed an orange freebie?

Probably more like 7 to 8 GB, as the whole pack will share a load of the source engine content, going by guesswork and what I know:

Half-Life 2 + DM: 900MB
Episode One: 600MB
Episode Two: ~800MB?
TF2 - ~1.5GB
Portal - ~1GB
Source Shared Stuff ~ 2.5GB

So about 7-8GB, a single dual layer DVD

Can't see it being any bigger personally.

its called the orange box , but i cant see why it isnt called this if you buy it over steam just because it dosent have a box ,

 

[Datamonkey]

lol

yeah got it now, just googled it, i thought orange (mobile) had teamed up with steam for some obscure reason and had made arrangements for some freebies lol

Can you pre-order this yet from Steam?!
