There were a lot of things that were deleted because they didn't work or weren't up to par.

I'm disappointed they took the OICW (the gun in that picture) out more than the monster. lol

I played for 10 minutes of the Substance modification and all I could tell is that the framerate dies and there are more people with random fights outside windows. Does it get better because if not, I am removing it lol

Hey, a while back someone posted the background image from the leaked Half-Life 2 beta (no, I'm not asking for the beta)... he also posted a few oher ones similar to it. The image I'm talking about has that green Steam-colored background and has the citiadel on it... anyone have it, or know where I can get it? Thanks :)

Hello all, I really want to play HL2, and CS:S, but I have a crappy machine, do you think it will be worth it playing on my current comp?

P4 1.6Ghz  (un OC'able thanks to intel mobo)

256 RAM

32 meg GeForce2 on Dx9

your processor is fine.. it's just you need some upgrades on Ram and Vidcard I don't think 32 MB will cut HL2

btw, does anyone know where the pics go? I took some pics and I can't seem to find them.. This may have been asked before but I forgot.. thanks

The reason I say so is that my comp technically meets min. requirements, but at the very minimum, I'm wondering, with no upgrading, if it will be worth it to play (No money)

download the demo if you want to test HL2, before you buy.

Ok I just bought my copy of HL2. But when I got it home I checked out the box and noticed that the anti tamper sticker at the bottom of the box has been cut! :( What should I do? I am now not sure if someone at the shop where I bought the game may have compromised the serial I have.

you should've checked.. or at least the people at the counters should've checked while they scanned it. Try to return it but do not trust to hope

I think I'll first try to register it with Steam - if it's been compromised though. I'm going to contact the local distributors and raise hell about this.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
