The fact that he is searching the net for "patches" and "updates" suggests that he has NO idea how Steam works. The thing is, the way Steam is there every step of the way for installing, updating etc, you just CAN'T be left wondering how to update the game. The guy is an idiot, or a pirate. As...

At least you did some research first. If you REALLY had a legit version, your last update would NOT have been over a year ago - especially when you say Steam updated your game "today". I also find it extremely suspicious that you have the "holiday 2006 edition", and it is also only updated to...

Until the usual "but I don't remember my original account name / password / email address" rant comes out...

That pretty much explains it all (assuming that by "rebooted" he actually means "reformatted"). He bought the game, registered an account using the CD key, then reFORMATTED, installed the game again - but then the idiot created a new account using the same old CD key (we all know that doesn't...

Of course they have finally fixed it. Now you can just sit back and wait for the NEXT problem Norton will cause. Look. Trying to get Norton to "work" is pushing sh!t uphill. It is NOT a good anti-virus / firewall program anyway, it is bloatware, it cost money to keep up-to-date, and it causes...

Let me clarify that Norton sucks, and is a piece of crap that is ALWAYS causing conflict with at least one program. Today it happens to be Steam. Come back to us when you finally come to realise that Norton doesn't really do the job it is even made for particularly well, causes problems with...

Your problem is Norton. Don't use it. It's like complaining that the cheap and nasty stereo that came with your 20 year old car won't play cd's, doesn't get many radio stations, and sounds like ass. Move on from that crap, or at least don't complain about it.

Not really. The important points of an endangered species are: * that they are something that there is not many of left. * once they are all gone, they're gone. I'm pretty sure Dinosaur fossils fit into a similar "not many left, so lets not let a few people ruin it for everyone else by...

Isn't that portal? And the portal gun? NOT Half-Life? Even the wall panels have the writing in the corner - just like (only) in portal.... You sure you're looking at an original HL2 media release?

By you? BAAAHAHAHAAaaa. Mods just LOVE people telling them how to do their job by people like you. It's an insult to them, and says you don't think they know how to do their job. Besides, YOU'RE the one who has posted nothing but flames and insults at me in this thread. At least I posted on...

Or what. Don't try to prevent someone from replying to your false sense of importance and authority by telling them not to reply "or youll look silly lol!!!11111one". Idle threats and stupid things like that make you look like a tool, and as you seem to be concerned about labelling people like...

Send it back FFS. It's not rocket science. "Brand new PC sounds like coffee grinder, then shuts down. Whatever shall I do? What possible way could there be? Have I been ripped off, and will have to live with this problem? If only there was some law about faulty goods......" And don't even TRY...

Welcome to Vista. And you were one of the lucky ones. At least it worked once for you... Also, have you just left it for a while? Steam can be a bitch, and just update itself REALLY slowly in the background, before maximising again and letting you continue.

Holy necrophilia. This thread is around a year and a half old. Start a new one.

Start a new thread, list your FULL system specs - including what operating system you use, ensure that ALL of your drivers, directX etc are FULLY up-to-date, and post a screenshot of your Steam games list, with your user name, and your new thread clearly visible in the background. That would be...

BAAHAHAHAHAhaa - even NPC's in a game ignore you! How badly does that hurt your self-respect?

What kind of idiot posts a link to a forum that needs paid registration to view? If it is that great, just copy and paste it. Otherwise, you fail and shouldn't have bothered posting this thread at all.

WTF. I discovered it when I played the fu*king game. So did most others. It's such a non-event that it doesn't NEED a "discovery date". It was never "covered". That's as stupid as asking "when was the Combine discovered be trying to kill you?". You go up to a vortigaunt, press "e", and they say...

No need. Those phrases are OLD. Definitely nothing new there.

Just because you say you're not a pirate, doesn't make it true. There is plenty of evidence in all your threads to say you are one, and none to say you're not.
