Mine is in the DVD case, above where the dvd should go, 5 sets of numbers/letters

You know that the HL2 is just using Havok's physics engine like many other games, right?

So nothing special. In the sence that it wasn't Valve that developed it :rolleyes:

the only way that i know to preload, is to right click on half life 2 in the steam app window and goto pre load.

Ok that has now disappeared. I think there was a command that I can add in the shortcut that starts the preload. Whats Application Number for Half Life 2 that starts steam??

Have you paid for the game? If not just go and by a copy. And what options do you get when you right click the game in "Play Games"?

No, thats why i wanna pre-load, so when i get that cd key, it unlocks. I dont wanna sit here for another hour waiting for it to download. And in the options I get Purchase and Update News.

ok so you havent paid for it, thats why you cant preload it, if your gonna end up DLing it, then just go out and buy the hard copy. You wont be able to pre load it now if you havent bought it off steam.

But since you said your mom is already gonna buy your a hard copy, then i would suggest you wai till she gets home.

    • no thanks is overpriced and its not the fastest ram neither.
    • It is, but it also has a bad performance reputation even on high-end gaming PCs. Some people say it's the engine's fault, others say it's the games developers' fault, who knows... At the end of the day, for the average gamer, the take is this: PC game with Unreal Engine 5? Be affraid and cross your fingers, it's a 50/50 chance.
    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a new Xbox console reveal from Microsoft celebrating the gaming brand turning 25 years old. This is to be a new limited edition Xbox Series X and controller collection that draws on the design of the rare green version of the original Xbox console. The "XBOX Series X25 Limited Edition" is coming out later this year with its matching controller. "Inspired by the look and feel of the original XBOX console, both the console and controller feature a translucent OG Green design, with subtle tributes to the journey we’ve been on together," said Microsoft in the announcement. The Xbox Series X|S line has received several new variants over the years, but this will be the first edition with a translucent design. The Xbox Series X25 will have one terabyte of internal storage and a green light on the X to signify the console lines' history. There is a 25th anniversary logo printed on the front plate. Microsoft is also teasing that the community will be able to find "a few hidden surprises throughout" the machine as well. As for the new X25 Special Edition Xbox controller, this is also coming with the classic translucent green design for its front and back plates. "From the original ABXY colors, to the timeless green, every detail calls back to the beginning, including the bumpers honoring the original black and white buttons on the original “Duke” controller," says the company about this release. "The back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic XBOX logo." The XBOX 25th anniversary collection, containing both the translucent console and controller, will be available for purchase in November 2026 as a limited-edition release. Microsoft will be offering the new XBOX Wireless Controller X25 Special Edition separately as well. Pricing details and pre-order information will be coming later.
