Win a Free Trip to Valve

In an effort to thank those who joined Half-Life's Primary Server Program (PSP), Sierra Studios and Valve will be giving away a free trip to Valve to one lucky PSP member.

Win a Free Trip to Valve is the story today, and it is the kind of late-April 1999 news blast that makes the pre-E3 season feel like someone kicked the hornet nest. In an effort to thank those who joined Half-Life’s Primary Server Program (PSP), Sierra Studios and Valve will be giving away a free trip to Valve to one lucky PSP member. To be selected, these members must be registered participants of the PSP and have their server up and running this Saturday. The 100 chosen at random will be sent a Team Fortress Classic T-shirt. Then next Saturday, April 17, Sierra Studios and Valve will check these servers again and select one of the hosts at random to come to Kirkland, WA and spend the day at Valve.

Bottom line: if this is your kind of game, start watching the download pages and store shelves. April has been stupidly busy, and this one just joined the pile.
