Garry's Mod Goes Commercial 67
Gothic_Walrus writes "A recent entry in The Steam Review brings the news that Garry's Mod, the popular mod for Half-Life 2 that allows players freedom to play with the game's physics engine in what is effectively a sandbox mode, is going to be sold through Steam at a $10 price point. It's worth noting, however, that the current version of the mod will remain as a demo."

This is the beauty of Steam and how independent publishing works - the same way everything else does. Have a good product that people like and enjoy using? Sell.

Same reason you say *completely* meaningless instead of just "meaningless". People like to embellish.

Same here, I'd imagine. If I'm willing to pay $7 or $8.25 for this mod, I'm almost certainly willing to pay $9.99, because it's all the same "price point" psychologically speaking. I'm not gonna say, "$7.85 would be acceptable, but ten bucks is RIGHT OUT!" So they might as well charge $9.99.
All this is conjecture, of course. Just my $0.99.
