    Along with Half life 2, I also got a 50% off voucher for audiosurf. Maybe check your games inventory ?

    I don't get any "gift" either, unless the only gift is HL2, and I already have that

    Weird, I've 3 things in my cart currently:

    Dead Island €33.49
    Metro 2033 €2.49
    Portal 2 €7.49

    Hit refresh and it changes to:

    Dead Island €8.49
    Metro 2033 €9.99
    Portal 2 €14.99

    Refresh again and it's back to the first prices :confused:

    Well - at least there are some old Amiga heads at the server backend - based on the error message.

    I think you get the lumps of coal from completing achievements.

    Steam inventory is a bit messed up. I had 6 extra copies of games and then only the coupon appeared there, now nothing is :confused:

    I'm in the same situation as everyone else, don't see a gift, 503 errors, Portal 2 price jumping like a little girl playing hopscotch.

    It's been two hours, I wonder when service will go back to some kind of normality.
    We have another 22 hours to get the games and gifts, I think it's probably best come back in the morn at this rate.

    Actually just after I posted that I reloaded the page and it seems to be loading at a somewhat normal speed, but still no gift.

    Hopefully it will be working again soon :)
