Half Life 2: Ep1 Wait wat

[Niven]

Well, some of you guys know that I'm in India. I got this sweet deal of Ep1 for $5, or Rs. 250. Though, when I opened it at our apartment, it had 5 loving discs. Is that right?
The front of the box looks like this:

                                                              (Lambda) Half Life 2 not required The first new episode for Half Life 2

HALF LIFE 2

Small yellow circle that says: This product is only for distribution in India. Distribution  Outside of India is unlicensed

And it shows VAVLe logo. No steam though, huh.

The back:

I'm pretty sure they're installation discs.

[Zaure]

You said there were five discs. Are they all the same? If not please make a list.

Example: Disc 1 - *contentshere* Disc 2 - *contentshere*, and so on.

BTW, if you want to talk to me on Steam about this, add "efhunter".

[Tokthree]

Pictures would help infinitely.

osht thats right, your in India :o Which means you buy stuff with rupees :D I suggest the hyrulian shield.

[tikitai]

No no no, get the reflective shield.

[Flying Ace]

YEEEEEHAAAAW!

[Snaffle J. Bean]

If they're CD-ROMs not DVD-ROMs, that would make sense. Back when I bought a copy of HL2 at a target  four years ago there were about 3 or 4 discs, but it had a steam key so I just downloaded it.

I never heard of a game that uses 5 disks just to install.



Why not try playing the last disk and trash the other four?

Then you've never bought a game on a CD-ROM. I have a lot of games that need four discs to install, like Battlefield 2

You're a dumbass.

You need to install the game before you play it, and to install it you need to use all those disks.

[Dippindots]

check for steam code

enter steam code into steam

???

profit!

[Conan]

Fine, I'll add this just so you guise don't take me seriously.
