2004-11-19 - Half-Life 2 20th Anniversary - HL2 Gold Package Unboxing 54

🎉 Half-Life 2 - Happy 20th Anniversary! 🎉 I still vividly remember the excitement 20 years ago when I received the Half-Life 2 Collector's Edition, the legendary HL2 Gold Package, shipped directly from Valve's headquarters via FedEx. At the time, I was an IT apprentice working in the data center of the city of Winterthur. My cat Smokey was still alive, and I had my own small office hidden away in a storage room within the data center. It was there that I unboxed the Gold Package for the first time. The photos from that day have never been shared before, until now. I'm also including some rare shots of the data center itself, which no longer exists. I think this is the perfect moment to share these memories. Check out the gallery and relive the nostalgia with me!
