I made a mistake assuming you really were going to change your ways and
contribute something a little more meaningful to this group.
It should be extremely clear to everyone now that you are a very sad, lonely
individual who is becoming more unravelled as the days pass.
Your bitterness stems from the fact that you can't buy ANY games or even
download warez versions. So you come to here and bitch about the one thing
you want more desperately than anything else...STEAM+HALF-LIFE 2. But even
if you had them, your piss-poor PC wouldn't be adequate, would it ?
And btw, that link you provided has absolutely nothing to do with "art".

So how he do that? Where'd he get the picture of the red handled facet,
reduce in size and stick into the other picture?

What is? That the people at Valve are responsible for the murder of 7
million people? Why not compare Valve to Joseph Stalin? He's got the blood
of about 12 million under his belt.

Steam may very well save PC Gaming. I wouldn't be overly critical. I
don't find it annoying (yet)... but will if every game published moves
towards their own online distribution/verification system.

You're right. It could have been even more. My figure was conservative.

The thing that annoys me about Steam is that whenever it's running/updating,
it hangs up the rest of my bloody system (or at least makes it run seriously
slowly). And this on a 2100+ Athlon w/512 Megs of RAM and a 1 Gig swap file.

You obviously missed the sheer pleasure of a three hour Half Life 2
installation over a dial-up connection. As I never had any particular
interest in playing games online, there really should be an option in
Steam to bypass all of their online foolishness for the benefit of those
of us who actually enjoy playing games "right out of the box".

If Steam is the future of PC gaming, looks like it's time to buy a
console...

STEAM-ing mad!

I havent bought Halflife - its one of those games that to me anyway just
isnt a crucial purchase. I may have bought it by now however if it didnt
have steam. But I can easily do without Halflife 2 and I dont like playing
developers to go to such extremes with my hard earned cash.

Erm, maybe I'm missing something, but: if you knew you only
had a dial-up connection, why didn't you buy Half-Life 2 on CD
rather than over Steam?

He's refering to the installation verification process. Many people,
on the first day, had to wait hours to get it all verified and unlocked.

You think you could download 5 CD's worth of data in 3 hours on dial-up?

I did. If I had bought it over Steam, it would have been more like a 16
hour installation, probably...

Installing it through Steam with a dial-up connection would probably
take three weeks, not three hours. Several gigabytes of data, you
know?

I must admit I was pretty pissed off by the time I finished installing and
verifying HL2 (installation was from discs) and I have a 256kb ADSL
connection. In fact this is the only software installation that has taken
longer to do than a clean installation of Win XP (including the time it took
to uninstall Win 98).
