Multiple Questions: 1. Must you have the CD in the drive if you buy the Retail or Collectors Edition? 2. If you buy the Retail or Collectors edition, will you be able to upgrade to get Day of Defeat? I know with the retail someone's answer was no, but what about the collectors edition...

Umm, defrag and disk cleanup??? Maybe new load of Windows if you're really bored? (Only if you burn all of the Pre-load to a CD)

Thanks for the correction. I knew it sounded familiar and I knew it had to have been an English author. :)

The Day of Reckoning is nearly upon us, my wayward children. We have all struggled with our souls, craving what may have never come, but LO and behold: The Great Gabe will tonight finally release upon the world the greatness that IS Half-Life 2. If you come upon those who were heritics to...

That was brilliant. It sounds like something Douglas Adams would have said, God bless his soul. I kind of agree with you 100%. You Europeans need to get with the program. Everyone is migrating to America's standards. Did you know that the international language in the sky is English? And it...

I have a test tomorrow morning at 10am. I cannot stay up past 1am if I intend on making it to class. Why don't professors play videogames? Bastards! Anyone else going to only be able to play it two or three hours tonight? /me goes off to study for test so he may be able to play HL2 when it...

HAHA bitches! We get HL2 a day before you do! First time EVER for Hawaii to get a game a day before the rest of the world! WOOT! November 15, BABY!!! YAh! Note: I do understand we will all be getting it at the same time, but this is also a reason for me to be excited. We get...

Yeah, they are down so they can announce HL2's release because people have gotten the game on retail. Only ONE person has to have it before they can release it on steam!

CS source now out, but it seems the pre-load was only 60% of the game....

No, no, no. The second sign of the apocalypse is the the death of our prophet Gabe. "For Gabe shall lead the children into the wilderness, whence a heretic yelling, 'OMG YOU CHANGED THE RELEASE DATE ON HL2' will strike him down." Damn those "OMG YOU CHANGED THE RELEASE DATE ON HL2" newbies...

Five dollars? You suck. I didn't get the video card, I bought the COUPON that came with one.

Yeah, their... there... they're most likely adding HL2 content to the servers. Not a biggy, since we won't be playing it for at least a month.

No, no, no. I'm sorry if I led you to believe I was Pre-loading Hl2. I am pre-loading CS:S. I just put the key in, and I want to load it tonight before I go to bed.. 60% and it's 1:45 Am. Aloha

My guess is that they either: A. Got hacked B. Set the servers to update this early so they would not get slammed. or C. Someone is downloading the Paris Hilton video and the entire Bangbus collection all at the same time. I am guessing B. The content servers are most likely updating...

I think I broke it. I was entering my CD key for Hl2 and it froze up. I am now pre-loading and hogging all the bandwith. I am at 37%, so bare with me people. I am downloading at 1Mb/s.
