May 12, 2011 seems like an ambitious schedule for Valve, I hope they make it. :p

Exact same for me. Bought it during the $4.99 sale, but the headbobbing thing was just too nauseating and distracting; it was game-breaking. Like you, I played about 5 minutes and said screw this, and left it alone. A few months later I looked up a non-headbobbing mod that actually worked...

i think i've forgotten the half-life story by now.

hmm. a lot of the horror element is gone when the environment is so sunny and open. this doesn't look scary or intense at all.

Yes, I bought BioShock during that promotion and I can confidently say that it was probably the best five bucks I have EVER spent. Great deal, even greater game, and everyone wins. Heck, I might even buy BioShock 2 on release day because of that Weekend Deal.

i dunno, the combat looks really cumbersome. i don't imagine this game will be as much actual fun as it is interesting to look at.

The new spy rule is... unfortunate.

All of us here know that "very soon" means exactly nothing. Could be tomorrow, could be in three weeks. And this is the announcement we're talking about, not the update. Just say "Valve is planning an update, and we don't know when."

What the eff? I played for about 8 minutes, saved my game, then wanted to up my graphic settings, which prompts for a restart. I restart the game, and my saved game isn't there. Also, both my keyboard controls AND new graphics settings didn't hold -- it just seemed to disregard anything that...

The fact of the matter is, Valve pissed off customers, unnecessarily. There's a news post here at hl2.net just a few entries below this one that has Gabe Newell talking about DRM and how it's stupid to decrease value of your product when you should be increasing value. Apply that to this...

Wow! The trailer was great. Far exceeded my expectations. We didn't get too glimpse too much in level design but the overall production values of the maps and models are very respectable. Very respectable. Really edited the trailer well.

oh beautiful. i was wondering if i'd be able to buy this through steam.

i felt like the HL2 hovercraft mission (or hoverboat jet thing) was exactly that. long and tedious. Personally I walked away from HL2 having had fun, but disappointed that the monsters and missions were not that diverse or fun compared to how I look back on HL1. In HL2, the mission variety...

I'll rub it in for you. You owned him. :thumbs:

excuse me, but Valve themselves were the ones who told us that the intervals between these episodic releases would be relatively fast. they were the ones who said it would be like one a year or whatever (or maybe even shorter, i can't remember), and when they had to delay the releases, the...
