"Half Life 2"

Will it ever be released?

First it was 31st December 2004. Then it was September 2005. Then November 2005.

And now it's been delayed until January 2006.

Annoying to say the least.

Again?

I ain't been on today.

Edit: My brother has been. He should have appeared offline.

I can't play now I'm downloading stuff.

Yeah, get on Halo2 again.

Yeh.

It's worth it though, trust me.

!?

Is that a couple of hours on broadband?

Yeh, you have to wait a couple of hours for some stuff to download and install.

But it's worth it, Counter Strike is great.

Then it's settled. I'll get it for PC.

Apparantly it's a real pain to install though...

But you have to struggle with an archaic control system.

That'll run it fine.

I have got it to run on:
800mhz AMD Duron
256MB Ram
64mb GeForce 2

Also, get it for PC. Not only is it cheaper but you get:
Counter Strike: Source
HL2:DM
And all the other mods that have been released for it.

I've had it down as a GAD win for a while now, but I'm hoping to change it to the Elder Scrolls once SR put it on.

If the X-box version turns out to be just as good then yeah, I'll get that. If not, I'll just get the PC one. It'll probably be cheaper on PC by then anyway.
