screw preloading
Ill buyt it

I will buy the CD version because the download version will be with similar prize because the world is not ready for download distribution. We have the system (internet and steam) but our mind are not ready for a 3 $ or 10 $ Half-Life 2
Anyway will be cool if Valve sell by steam new CD-Key. Some people will have piracy copys and will want to upgrade to legal copys.
Lol. Servers are to busy, how would I know :rolleyes:
lol and the servers will be busy for quite sometime.... VALVE BITTORRENT IS YOUR FRIEND! it will not hurt you oun throw you down de basement.
i got it, i just retryed moments after failing to connect first time due to busyness
I hope this means that the SDK will be released soon...
I want to be able to have a CD so that I can just redownload something without having to go through my hard drive reformatting on accident, or having problems with Steam not recognizing the download. I want to be able to have a back-up where I can burn the CD if need be.
Besides, it's a better way to show it off to your friends :D
Yay, I got it ^^
could just burn cache to a cd, eh?
HL2 goes gold in 2 days :)
