Half Life 2 is out! Go to your nearest store tomorrow!

[OFFMason]

Yeah it may take a while, but this is it!

AP - Toronto, Canada

"November 2nd, 2003; Valve has finally released Half Life 2. Their ongoing troubles due to the hacking of their systems and the ultimate robery of valuable code has caused Valve to release the game on a more financially beneficial media type, the diskette."

UPDATE: There is word Valve forgot to place diskette 593 into every package!

Thank god floppys died out (more or less). I never liked em.

 

[NSPIRE]

LMAO. Nice one. I never did like floppys either.

[DuncanIdahoTPF]

Haha, I cant remember the last time I saw a game on floppies. I think it was some kind of sub game (a very good one). Can anyone refresh my memory...

OH WAIT! Wasnt it 688 Attack Sub or something like that?

 

[SnowBall]

Last time I used one I had windows 3.1... and it was like a free game that came with a toy.

LOL. I turned that off after about 40 seconds, boring and hilarious at the same time.

 

[kelisis]

LOL, that's pretty good.

 

[Fender357]

Thats funny. I dont even have foppy drive!!!


But I'd rather have the room for the second hard drive. 222 GB!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOo!

 

[DuncanIdahoTPF]

Haha, I saw that in PCG. Very annoying but none the less pretty funny.

 

[FantasicDamage!]

I bet one of my disks has an error on it. That always happens.

 

[Bandages]

when i watched "dont copy that floppy" ... it turned me into like a zombie or something, i just sat there and watched it without even realizing what the hell was going on. then afterwards, i didnt want to copy my games onto floppys anymore, so that part of my life is now officially OVER.

 

[ph34r t3h cute]

what you dont see are the other 700,000 inside the box... and the other 40 boxes it comes with

Great picture

[Shuzer]

Floppies are always good for boot disks, and stuff, other than that, pretty useless

lol, anyone ever played Jetpack? Best DOS diskette game EVER

Actually, talking real floppies.. I think the game I used to play the most on my 486 was The California Raisins.. oh, those were the days

 

[Dr. Freeman]

it only took 1 disk.. but tons of fun.. especially with friends in the head to head split screen..

[antistructure]

All OS's have bootable CDs (except for the old ones) and for stuff you use USB Flash drives.

I don't have floppy drive anymore and will never ever have one again (I have about 100 broken floppies in a box and 0 working ones).

 

[jimbones]

he he Hl2 on floppy-disks.. Better than steam though. =)

 

[czrsink]

I had Wolfenstein 3D and Spear(?) Of Destiny on 1 floppy disk all zipped up and that provided me with hours and hours of game play.
