I'm so glad HL2 runs on my 1ghz Inspiron 8100. Gotta love this game.

OK, have anyone tried to do a restore of a backup..??

I have, don't work!!  burned the backup on a DVD. The .exe starts a process called steamrestore..(or something), but nothing happens ?! When I try to kill the process, taskmanager stops responding  :o  :no:  :rolleyes:

Any idea? or do I have to download everything once more..  :pinch:

take care!  :)

omg another spork \o/

and as for the Blue Grav gun, I've tried everything.

None of the give weapon_ commands work in levels other than Citadel, and i've even tried changing map after I pick it up normally - no luck :(

A dude in my school has been thick today because he has played HL 2 all night long ! He should stay at home for 2 two day now ! :D

Guys - I read this thread hoping that at the end of the game I would get the actual phsycannon from the E3/Leaked version that is shown in the screenshots posted by sp0rk. And you guys are WRONG.

The gun you get is just your normal antigravity gun, but charged up to hell with electricity and stuff. It's nothing like the phsycannon I had so much fun with in the leaked version. It's gotta be hidden in there somewhere though. Must be in a dev mode or something, since it was basically just there to show off the physics at E3....

have mods just stopped bothering to check HL2 posts for spoilers now. it's in the freaking title :(

jeez :angry: :angry:

[Hills420]

Is there a timedemo in HL2?

[sin-ergy]

Gabe said they will be doing expansion packs like opposing force for hl1, so you guys that said the game is short dont worry more is coming

i'm more interested on mods! can't wait to see what those wacky modders will do with this sweet sweet game.

[psybapunk]

DoD will be awesome, cant wait to play avalanche with the new physics.

[ForeverUnknown]

my friend completed the game last night and he said the blue antigravity gun is near the end of the game.

why the **** does it install something that starts with windows!??!?!?!

What a bunch of crap. I'm so freaken tired of programs thinking they have the ****ing right to start when windows start without even asking me if this is ok.

:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

I'm very dissapointed, valve!

If you're talking about this post, the title of this post clearly asks about a gun at the end of the game. Can you not put two and two together to realize maybe...just maybe this might include spoilers since it mentions end of the game?

[FatCat]

Trying....

[elliot]

It did for the first 20 minutes, then I decided to fix it.

Turned 5.1 speakers down to 4, high detail down to medium. Don't know which one of them actually stopped the stuttering, and don't care to find out.
