    Weekly Steam News (26/01/04)

    Didn't anyone here react to the aspect ratio of the two screen shots? Seems Valve is playing using a 16:9 monitor, likely a cool TFT. :rolling:

    Valve > Pirates

    If you cared to read the press release, it states accounts were used for credit card fraud, among other things. You think they should be allowed to hack into honest buyers credit cards and use those numbers to steal their money?

    Is it just me... Or is Dog the coolest character ever?

    I bet you said that when you saw Nemo or any other cute character on film?

    Valve > Pirates

    Really? I've created 5 accounts so far, my gaming account and four different servers. A hacker could sit and create accounts all day if he needed to. In this case most accounts were accounts with no registered game at all, clearly accounts created to tap the Steam protocol and try to hack it.

    Stuck on the lake with the bike

    Ok, I now spent two hours playing through HL2 to that point again on my laptop. Now I got to the guard room, killed the guards, fired the big guns at the chopper until it flew away and then pressed the button on the control panel. That opened the dam doors. I got back to the jetski and continued...

    City 17 - Could It Actually Happen?

    Or what is happening on Guantanamo in Cuba, where some 500 are still held without facing international war laws (Geneva convention) or being charged under national law, but still violently being interrogated according to those that have been let out. All this against the Human Rights.

    Stuck on the lake with the bike

    You opened the dam doors with a huge log hanging in two ropes, or the dam doors after that? I've just come to the second dam doors, went into a room, then up again and a chopper comes and kills me. Haven't played since.

    Year release delay shows in the visuals

    Why did you expect more? HL1 didn't bring fancy graphics, it brought a new experience, characters, story etc. HL2 brings all those to a new level, the graphics are closer to cutting edge today than what HL1 brought. I'm impressed they had time to do fancy graphics in addition to everything else...

    City 17 - Could It Actually Happen?

    HL2 is merely taking ideas from history. This has happened many times through history and happens still today. If you don't watch out, the PATRIOT act is only beginning! :sniper:

    Go into the tunnel where the raised gate covered, run past enemies and run through wooden boards blocking your way!

    Why Steam is for us players and helps combat piracy

    The Inquirer Many good insights there: "Which is why Valve's anti-piracy plan is such genius. I mean, it's utter, simple, calculated, but undoubted genius. Valve decided that the best way to stop piracy was simply to give everyone in the world the game at the same time. Early code to...

    Team Fortress 2

    That's exactly what it's going to be. Expect info after HL-2 release, likely not until 2005 though.
