Yep, Leave PC on tonight, go to bed early, wake up tommorrow, straight on to PC and enjoy a week of Half Life 2, Day of defeat as well as a bit of Half Life Source here and there. Then it's Vampire's at the weekend and Pirates the week after.

A good time to be a gamer.

Everyone's jumping the gun a little with the HL:Source and DoD:Source. These won't be available for a while yet, definatley not going to be here tomorrow.

Valve are still working on HL:S and DoD:S and have yet to fix any form of release date for either.

All is explained in the Steam forums.

Out of interest, is the unlocking automated? I.E. If I leave steam running, it'll just move from the "coming soon" section to the "play" section?

Never been a huge fan of online content delivery systems, though have some faith in Steam as it was all re-written by the guy who invented BitTorrent only a couple of months ago.

You can see the headlines now...

Steam Server Global Crash, thousands die in suicide bid!...

Trying not to get too hyped about it, still suffering with the though of having to go to work at 7.55am, so won't be playing until I get home, almost 12 hours later!!

And please, please, please for the love of Christ, NO SPOILERS!!! Not until at least Wednesday!;)

Half Life: Source is being shipped with the Half Life 2 Collectors Edition though, be a bit of a crap deal if you bought and couldn't yet play it.

Got the HL Gold Deal off Steam, and according to that HL:S hasn't even began pre loading which leaves me to understand there is no HL:S yet, no DoD:S (along with the rest of the Steam users), don;t see how thay can be shipping it with the collectors edition?

Does sound like a bum deal, but it's also a bit odd that for those of us who went Gold/Silver, we've also paid for CS/HL all over again?

The oddness continues...
