If you like action style games like Space Siege or Diablo (except with guns) then you need to get this FREE Game. Starting in about 7 hours, on Today, Monday 7/19, Alien Swarm is being GIVEN AWAY on Steam for FREE!!!! If you like FREE Games then downloading this one is a no-brainer. I mean what's the worst that could happen? You try it out, don't like it, and un-install it....Oh no, the agony!!! LoL
Go get it peeps, it's FREE!!!!!!!
Although it's fun, I think it's obvious why its a free game.
You know, you should probably tell us what you think is obvious so we can tell you if it was obvious or not.
Isn't it obvious?
Edit: Just to be clear, /s
From Rock, Paper, Shotgun:

Yeah - I couldn't justify buying the game simply because its so short - 2 1/2 hours or so to complete, but it is fun. And they've got it setup for modding and adding new content for users, so win there. It seems like its begging for additional campaigns, which perhaps would be paid content (hopefully $1.99 to $4.99) as I'm sure, out of the X people that play it for free, a certain % of them would pay for more content. So, its either then just showing off, trying to increase the adoption rate of the steam client, or a marketing plan so more people will buy the dlc when it ships (if). Valve gets some press, loses some bandwidth, and perhaps increases its player base. Sounds like a decent move to me.
They should have made Alienswarm only free to those who have purchased something from steam
Silly n00b, you silly!
Steam wants people to GET STEAM, not reward steam users. This is just nother reason people should have steam on thier computers, and it probably will end up with either a direct revenue stream or an indirect one.
I downloaded it, and it didn't even work on my computer...
My uncle has it, and I just went and played it on his computer. Pretty cool.
They should have made Alienswarm worth 20$ like killingfloor
Microsoft has already said that "Windows Marketplace" for people to sell Windows games/apps will be bundled in the upcoming Windows 8.
I though it played like crap and immediately deleted it from my computer.
It's not even worth the cost of free.
