Thanks. I expected that... World of Warcraft also runned (yes, the beta ends today) smoothly on my PC.

I bought it today. 2 hours just flew by.

****ing nuts.

I love this game. I'm running on medium settings and the game's running great. I haven't had this much fun playing an fps in a long time.


Thanks for the hardware info fellas.

I heard a radio ad this morning.

Man, I wanna play this game, but I've got no money and no time.

I'm pretty far into the game, and about to start over at a higher difficulty.

The game is so addicting. And whats great, is I can play CS:S if I ever want to take a break from Half Life 2. So much fun in 2 beautiful games.

i like the feel of CS Source, but honestly, the game is just so utterly repeatitive.

im waiting on some mods tho. A normal HL2 multiplayer should be out soon, and im also looking at Day of Defeat Source, and Team Fortress Source. this game has such great great potential for mods, they can do so much with this engine. really looking foward to em.

The gravity gun is so fun to use. I find myself using it even though I'm maxed out on ammo for my other guns. Haha, I was playing it last night instead of studying for my Discrete Math test. Yeah, that test this morning didn't go so well, lol. But I care, I have HL2!


Btw, I'm surprised it runs so well on my computer. Even though I have an A64 3000+, 9800 Pro (Oc'ed to XT) and 1gig RAM, I kinda thought that I wouldn't be able to play at maxed everything. Boy, was I proven wrong. 1152x768, 2x AAF and everything else maxed, itruns like a dream.

i am LOVING this game. more i play the more it draws me into it.

and i've finally got my bud playin a PC FPS game, lol. took some talkin but i got him to buy it, and he really gets into it. yells and screams as he plays. he said its the most intense game he's ever played.


for me, Game of the Year. easily, hands down.

I'm playing through it again, this time on hard... At the airboat part again...

I really really really really really really want to use the super duper gravity gun through the whole game... I like playing yo-yo with dead bodies...

*shoot* *pull*... *shoot* *pull*.... *shoots up in the air and watches as it tumbles back to the ground*... *picks up body and spins around in circles*... *shoots into air again*...

I could do it all day...

The game's engine just takes it.


Awesome game. I've decided that, while cs:source is a streamlined gameplay experience, it's still not what I want. I've played a bit over an hour of it and it's the same ****ing thing over and over and over and over. I can't wait for the mods.

I can't believe that I wasn't going to buy this game.

The new engine is amazing. I just hope they release a TFC: Source, because that is one of my favorite Half-Life mods. But it looks like they are making a TFC2, so I don't know. =/

I liked the arcade feel of TFC, I hope they keep it that way.

[Bube]

If I remember correctly, TFC2 was announced more than 4 years ago, along with screenshots. Nobody knows what happened...

[Null]

Actually its just TF2, and i believe valve said its coming on the source engine. and that s a BIG i'm waiting for. Valve said a while back there will be a surprise shortly after the release of HL2 for thoes who are dissapointed CS:S is the only multiplayer.
some rumors say that surprise is either an official HL2 multiplayer, or TF2.

(altho a HL2 multiplayer is coming either way. all it needs are maps cuz the mulitplayer is actually in the game already.)

Weapons Factory is another im waiting for. its basically the same as TF.
Day of Defeat, and some others. just soooo many im excited over.

the phisics engine just brings so much possibilities to these mods, im excited to see what people think up.

Now we're arguing over one little letter, huh?

I stand corrected. What's the difference, btw?

[Null]

not quite sure. i think classic has more of the original's options. while the other has newer features?
