    If you don't have a credit card, buy a physical copy with cold hard cash

    Edit: and if you can't do that, you can always buy a pre-paid visa card from a store with real money. You can use them online and shit.

    Yeah they do, I used one around Christmas time.

    OP, I don't know what you were expecting from this thread, but the only thing people are going to tell you is to find another means of acquiring the game. (Pre-paid giftcards, etc)

    You don't have a debit card either?

    How do you get by, out of interest?

    Judging from your name, the assumption can be made that you are a child and obviously do not make your own money.

    The Half-Life Anthology was available in the US whenever it came out (around six years ago). Perhaps not anymore. You can check your local Half-Price Books. They sometimes have old pc games for cheap.

    Ask a friend and give them the money in cash? Honestly, it isn't that hard to buy things. It's kind of the foundation of our economy. You'll work it out.

    I don't think you understood what Sulk meant. He meant find a friend with a credit card, have him buy it for you on Steam and then pay him back in cash.

    Also, all legit PC copies of Half-Life are redeemable on Steam (and if you buy the Half-Life Anthology pack it's mandatory).

    Hey, we should all pitch in to get him a copy. I mean, who knows? Maybe he'll gain some inspiration from his play through and become the next ideas guy for an eternally unfinished mod!

    Be sure to post a thread when you've begun your mod so I can give sound advice.

    If you allready want to get an HL game,get HL2(since you like to mod)...
    only 1 euro more than HL here...Which is weird,tbh...
    And you can always get a token card form a bank,they will charge you some small fee,and give you a 1-use card to shop on the net with,and last time i checked,steam supported them...
