Who else just cannot wait any longer?

I have to. I still need a case, motherboard, cpu, and memory before I can play it.

Luckily, my Radeon 9800 pro came in today, finally. This computer will be screaming fast.... if I ever build it.

You remind me of a friend of mine who just built a computer.


But I think we'll all have to wait Xplay said that someone announced a november release date.

Ugh...

YES!!!

Half-Life 2 and CS:S will both be released before mid-October. Did you beat the first HL, Cronny?

Sadly no. I actually still play it from time to time, but I'm stuck and confused

I really should though.

Did you?

Yes, many many times. I first beat it years ago. You really should, the game only takes around a week from start to finish. I wouldn't play HL2 until I beat HL and maybe Opposing Force. If you have Steam, once you buy HL you get Opposing Force and many other games free.

Beat it.

Man, I hate the G-Man for what he did to Gordon at the end.

Well, there are two endings. Of course, the bad one could've never occured, or else HL2 would not exist. Good job on beating HL. If you use Steam, now you can play Opposing Force for free. It's Half-Life, except you play as one of the soilders. A very cool twist.

well yeah, I knew about the two endings, but even with the "good" ending, it still feels like an indignity.

Did you preload and purchase HL2 on Steam yet? HL2 just went gold today, and the game finished preloading yesterday.

yeah, I preloaded it a couple of days ago.

Do you think it'll do me any good if I plan to buy it at a store rather than on steam?

No, you should ALWAYS buy Valve games on Steam. I bought Gold the minute it was available. =D

why is that?

TOMORROW!
