    Resurgence.....

    There appears to be a resurgence in people playing HL2DM recently. All I can say is thank God! I've really missed playing this and its great to be able to x-bow people to walls again. *cheers*

    Legal Dispute Ended

    Oh GREAT, so does that mean I can now NOT buy Valve games? Due to some unfortunate relationship split issues, I have no bank account and can't have one for some time. I can't have a credit card, or debit card. So, let's hope at least they have the foresight to found their own DVD production...
