It seems like something about Radiation...

    I can see that one of my locals has it from there stock levels on their website, whether they are selling it I don´t know. Might go check now, brb. EDIT: Yeah they´ve got em all right, but they´re not selling till tomorrow morning. Even my best chinese burn and nipple cripple wouldn´t convince them otherwise.

    Still waiting... <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    I got the call from EB, and its confirmed from the local guy, Release was meant to be at 6PM, but ince no-ones open, 9AM tomorrow is the go. Im over it anyway... but thats probably cos i gots the munchies.

    It´s here! I have it! I am unable to play it! Damn this unholy day of workitude and it´s imposing stance against my gaming pleasure! Got the collectors addition, it comes in an enormous box which you think´d be full to the brim but nope. One t-shirt, one manual and one, yep that´s right one, dvd. All three games HL Source, HL2 and CS Source are stored on the one dvd. Very suprising though is the manual, it´s one of those really detailed colour jobbie´s that haven´t been seen since the 90´s. Still I have to wait to get home from work to see how it runs on my nVidia powered beast........I think I might be coming down with something....cough cough.....<img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    I´m still waiting for the damn thing to run in &quot;Offiline&quot; mode. It takes AGES, but the HDD is chugging along so it is doing *something*. Now do you see why I hate PA? *Grumble*

    All I got with my normal edition was a quick referance card :S @ff: damn you! <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    Actually, I nearly up to that bit (I believe). I´m about to travel to &quot;Nova Propekt&quot; for various reasons *hint*. I need to figure out how to flip the damn buggy though!

    ...I hate to say this, but ive clocked it already. I wont give away the ending, but its 10x more unsatisfying than HL1. *QUOTE/SPOILER* &quot;Come on Gordon, we dont have *boom*&quot; &quot;Time, mister Freeman?&quot; not to say that its short, its to say ive got too much time on my hands. I have to say there are two things i absolutely love about HL-2. Physics The Gravity Gun. circular saws were never so much fun... -Love Shark @Musty: have you had trouble with HL:Source? i cant get mine to work... @Esky: its called the gravity gun. just like windows, point and click Edited by - Love Shark on 11/17/2004 7:57:38 PM

    Haven´t tried it yet Shark, I really only got to spend half an hour with HL2 before I had to go out. I´ll try to load it up when I get home tonight and get back to you. EDIT: Worked fine, doesn´t look that much different but they have made a couple of nice changes. Definately better than the original. Edited by - Mustang on 11/18/2004 12:23:15 AM

    Actually people, I *have* been using the G-Gun, however evey time I used it on the buggy, the game crashed. Luckily it sorted itself out, and now I´m in the middle of some urban combat <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>. While I´m here, let me ask you guys a question; why the hell doesn´t my collector´s edition boxed set have a bloody manual? Is it too much to ask for a glossy manual? I can´t even find a PDF on the CD. So, am I suposed to have one? The only booklet I have is the &quot;Prima&quot; guide <img src=smilies/icon_smile_angry.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>. Finally, how well does it run for you? I´m running it with maximum detail, on 1280x960, and with 4x AA and 8x AF. It runs really well when I OC my graphics card, but it´s a little ****y when I don´t OC.

    ff - Download the manual off Steam? *Shakes head* Idiots. As for the settings, it stated that my &quot;optimal&quot; settings were &quot;High&quot; on everything, &quot;Reflect World&quot;, no AA or AF, and a res. of 1042x768. Edited by - esquilax on 11/19/2004 3:39:04 AM

    The game is perfectly playable with the aforementioned settings, even with a three striders on the screen at the same time. I wish I could prove it <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>. Of course, the game crashes occasionally, most likely due to my overclocked graphics card getting too hot, but it is worth it <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>.
