Guys, this is HALF LIFE RADIO reporting this, the worst bunch of knob suckers in the entire world. Why believe them? They've consistently lied to the community to bring hits to their site.
I'm asking because they have to pay for the network operation. Other than that, I'm thinking it's pure profits. No retailer, distributor, etc. If this is the case, I'll buy through Steam so Valve gets more cash.
Well I'm asking because this legitimate auction (the seller has 800 feedback) says the August 2004 issue of PC Gamer reveals the HL2 multiplayer. See for yourself.
Also, its not them showing off E3 CS:S because it was in the previous issue. This could be the "big secret" PC Gamer was taking...
