    I now know that this should be classified under retroart...

    Looks very chibi 50's-esque clippy art Winter Holiday themed to me.

    In all seriousness though, Valve is based on East Coast, so it's midnight for you. And its on the list now. #left4dead2

    At least they're making people know in advance after the whole Modern Warfare 2 debacle. (To clarify: They're making it abundantly clear.)

    It's weird, because Steam new release games used to unlock at like 1 pm (Eastern) the day of release. I'm glad it's now actually midnight. #left4dead2

    If I wasn't so broke, I'd get those TF2 cards in a heartbeat. Then again, though, I'm not sure how many people I know would actually appreciate them.

    Since the post doesn't make it clear, there are actually two sets of TF2 cards. That makes 20 TF2 cards, 10 L4D cards, and 10 LFD2 cards (which all seem to focus on the zombies). #teamfortress2

    @Ad-hominem: It's usually more often that midnight counts as midnight Pacific time. Meaning us on the east coast get the game in the middle of the night (3am).

    I'm pretty stoked about this. I'm not happy about having to work the midnight launch for this and Assassin's Creed II though :\ I just want to play the game! #left4dead2

    People donate money so that poor gamers like ourselves can quit our jobs and other responsibilities during these hectic holiday periods, and enjoy all the games that come out.
