It's now the 16th on the East Coast!

[poksmote]

Less than 3 hours left!!

Fellow East Coastinites, who else is staying up until 3am to play?

My game plan is stay up till at least 7:00am, get 4 hours of sleep, then head to my first class.

I know theres many threads like this, but even I'm excited now. :farmer:

east sieeeeede!!!

i'm waiting up till 3 in toronto yo! werd to yo grandma!

 

[JamesPicard_007]

I'm set in to stay up all night.

 

[Eternity]

Yeah. I don't have class until 12:30, so I'll play until 4:00 or so. Hopefully I can tear myself away...

 

[ShinRa]

correction: it wont be released exactly at 12am pst. so you'll be waiting up til about 5 to unlock it, playing by 5:15...rough estimate...knowing valve, itll be even longer.

screw sleep.... who cares if i fall asleep at work.. not as though i work with machines that could kill me...... oh... shit.... screw it anyway

Ya, I've got a 12:30 for my first class as well. It's better to get 4 hours of sleep than 5 or 6. Apparently thats what they do in the military, after 4 hours you reach R.E.M. sleep and it's very hard to wake up from anything less than 7 or 8 hours. (4 hours in minimum, between 4 and 7 or 8 is horrid.) Hence, why I'm staying up to 7:00am at the earliest. 4 blissful hours of half-life2 followed by 4 hours of sleep and then 4 hours of class. Awesome.

2h 45m...

31.9% Preloaded. I've been waiting forever but put off the preload until tonight. Mostly because I'm constantly playing CSS. Lol. Considering those who pre-ordered HL2 online when and how will we be able to play HL2?

that's just your speculation. dammit, why do you have to be a buzz kill. ;(

but I'm staying up till ~3am EST. If it's not working by 4, i'm going to sleep for a bit tho. I have a class at 9:30, but i don't care if i'm tired.

Quote from PlanetHalfLife

Update: For all of you rabid fans sitting in front of a computer right now reading this and counting down the final seconds to release - just got confirmation from Doug Lombardi that "Half-Life 2 will be made available just after midnight (PST) tonight". Tick tock.

So unlocking should happen right around midnight PST.

Hell yea, can't wait to start unloading some rifle rounds into the skulls of those gas mask wearing combine. Especially ones from on top of a 10 story building, then watching them tumble all the way to the ground below. Ragdoll physics, you're my hero.

 

[fakeemail420214]
