Half-Life 2 Pre-Loading Begins

Half-Life 2 pre-loading begins to Steam account holders today. Over the coming days, those who have selected the pre-loading option will have encrypted Half-Life 2 files delivered to their PC. No purchase is required to pre-load HL2, but is required to activate the game. Purchase options will be released soon. Then, the moment the game is made available, those who have pre-loaded and purchased Half-Life 2 via Steam will be authenticated and ready to start playing.


That means Half-Life 2 will be out soon :banana:


I am pre-loading it onto my PC right now so I'm ready...:P

congrats, but please can you cut down the threads about this stuff (HL2 and HALO)... it's starting to get realy annoying... this isn't a games forum....

If something exciting happens in the HL2 or Halo-world, add it to a existing HL2 or Halo thread, don't make a new one for every small thing that happens...

:dodgy: This IS GCC...and this isn't really small. I haven't actually made any other HL2 threads either...:dodgy:

With "small" I meant, every possible thing including big things.... And I know you didn't made any other HL2-threads, but you know what I mean....

Also, I didn't say you can't post stuff like that... of course you can... It's just annoying when you create a new thread for every thing that happens (see Halo), while it would be much nicer to keep it in 1 thread. Also it's much cooler to read everything in 1 thread then searching for all the threads and putting things together (and that's realy the main reason for me)....


EDIT: I know I should have PM'ed you this, but blah blah blah.....

hmm i agree (again :dodgy:) with cookie, there are tons of halo threads and stuff, even if its GCC, u shouldnt post every new on different threads.
maybe u should create a single thread for that purpose.
Soooooooo this thread is now closed :banana:

Edited: k theres a new sticky http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=30...d=300556#pid300556 :)
