This thread is huge and when I searched in this section I only found old or irrelevant threads/posts.

So, now I'm asking.

From what I understand, the Bronze version is the same as the retail version, except that the retail version requires you to put in the CD to be able to play.

It seems that they won't change that since they don't want to screw even more with Vivendi.

You get Counter-Strike Source and Deathmatch with the bronze version so I assume that you get that with the retail version too.

But, Valve will port Team Fortress Classic later (Gabe said so), so I'm wondering, do you guys think that it will be availible in the retail version?

(Team Fortress 2 and TFC source are who different games)

For those who have never seen Team Fortress at all, it is CTF with player classes. You pick a class instead of weapons.

So CTF will pretty much kill the fun in TF.

Also, how long does it take to buy the games over Steam? It says that the purchase will be taken care of immediately but how long does it take?

I think I want the Steam version instead of the retail version. The whole house can explode and I'll still have my game.

All I did was update my motherboard bios to the latest version, reinstall the same drivers I was using for my graphics card 9500pro, and it's quality now.

running better than ever.

I just beat it and I must say... The ending was rather disappointing.

Everything from the beginning to the final chapter was excellent. However the final chapter and battle was... eh...

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Your other comment in another article says otherwise, namely "Microsoft veteran wants to replace every single line of C/C++ code with Rust and AI".

      Sued and... exonerated. Oh, they learned a lesson alright. They learned that anyone who uses the word "antiturst" in conjunction with "Microsoft" is an idiot, even if that person is Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson. That judge ruined the image of the US justice system. Microsoft Edge has a 5.14% market share. Also, Windows is no longer the #1 OS. None of this constitutes a monopoly. Google Chrome, however, has 70.25% share. Also, Google's Android is the #1 OS. Now that's closer to a monopoly.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      The consumer ESU is ending in 4 months. LTSC isn't now, never has been, and never will be for consumer use, it is for OT usage - plant machinery, medical devices, manufacturing equipment etc. LTSC requires a Microsoft EA. You can't legally obtain LTSC to run on your PC at home.
