    I asked in Gamestop and the gut told me it's not coming out till mid Feb 2004.

    I also heard that the internet is fake, your computer just has really really advanced AI and is pretending to be other users on the internet.

    ...Please.

    I somehow think most of us would have heard of that release date, Fluffy. Valve is still sticking to the original release date, and I take Valves word over anyone elses.

    actually if you preorder over steam very soon, like within days, it will preload all of HL2 on ur computer like the steam videos (im talkin about steam here btw) so then at 12:01 at sept 30 you already have HL2 ready to go and you can play instantly <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> no waiting in stores..... thats what a lot of people are doing (not sure if cheaper tho... might be :\)

    Nah, there is something about going somewhere in excitement over something you've waited years for.
  • eedioteediot Join Date: 2003-02-24 Member: 13903Members
    yeah

    say i bought the FULL HL2 package, i.e deluxe edition, if i just want to play single play for the moment, do i need to download and install steam and verify my cd key? =/ if so, is there some way to NOT download ANYTHING???

    Get the cheap 1 player only SKU <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
  • eedioteediot Join Date: 2003-02-24 Member: 13903Members
    But i want to buy the entire thing... that way when steam gets working / BALEETED then i can play everything and do everything <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    So long as you aren't playing multiplayer, you should be able to play SP HL2 without needing to connect to the 'net.

    And though I'm not going to say that I have complete confidence, I'm hoping like heck that it does come out on-time. If it does, I'm going to buy an R9800 Pro and sell off my R9500 Pro. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> If not, I'll wait for the rumored Nov 15th price drops on video cards.

    Oh yeah, i forgot about hardware problems... I don't have a halfway decent computer, but I may as well buy it and see.

    Amd athlon 600 mhz
    256 mb ram
    geforce 2 mx 400 =/
