I have just finished downloading the game that steam is currently giving for free.

Does anyone know if it is free forever or only playable until the 24th?

(By that I mean, if I install it now is it mine forever.)

If you install it, its yours forever.
But I can't verify that with a source at the moment.
If it ended at the 24th, you would have seen the words "trial version" everywhere.

I was under the impression that it was free to download until May24th.

If you wanted to get it after May 24th you had to buy it like normal.

It's yours forever, and you can re-install it to another computer whenever as well. You can have your cake and eat it too, even if it's a lie.

There will be cake, so you won't get hungry.

Yes, I'm pretty sure it's forever, otherwise it would say trial on it I guess.


Can't wait for portal two! :D

they're trying to gain hype for Portal 2.
That's generous and ingenious.

I thought Portal was free for download until the 24th. After that it'll cost you. But I believe once it's downloaded it's yours to play forever. I took advantage of that and got it.^^ I've never played Portal before I got it for free on Steam, and it was really fun. But I was disappointed in
how short the game is.
But I guess the puzzles, especially the advanced rooms, can make up for that.

if you were just reminded of for one of the awesomeness moments of your childhood, you're welcome.

Edit: I also am setting up an entirely new steam account and getting the game. There's no point not getting it now.

It's a small program, not a big deal.

Thanks guys, the more games YOU buy, the more likely I'll be able to keep getting free shit wihtout giving Steam a dime. Eh, I will probably spread how decent it is by word of mouth.

Shit... Civilization 5... Gotta' get that.
