I'll give a tip - the colors (red and yellow) indeed have something to do with it. :) Anyone (well, Greengoop) may reanswer.

Originally it was Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Team Fortress 2 and Portal.

I guess since TF2 became free, and since the episodes were merged into the main game recently, it's just HL2 and Portal :hap:

Correct! Not sure how the latest mergers affect this, but sealed copies of the original retail box are still available online, and my guess the codes will activate whatever games are there. :mryellow:

Also, which one is advertising the other one here? :hap:
