Just completed the Leaked Copy's SP. IT was long, hard, challengine, enjoyable, and bloody funny (thanks to wheatly and his English sarcastic/witty humor). Loved it SO much, and played about 5 test chamber's of Coop with friends today. Damn, easily the best game of the year so far!

e: Ending won't disapoint, also, the ending song won't either ;).

Thought i'd mention, if you can't talked about pirated movies or software. I doubt you'd want to mention you played a pirated game.

I will be on my way to wal-mart to pick up my copy shortly. Going to see if they will price match bestbuys 34.99$ on the pc version.

From what I understand, it is okay to talk about pirated games in the gamers' hangout forum, as long as you don't provide any info on obtaining them.

I find it hilarious that the game that took the most time, didn't even take 10 minutes off the countdown.

heh, I'd argue that no matter how many games were done, this was always going to be the release time, hense why completing it so late hasn't really made much difference.

Just purchaced Portal 2... w00t, got Portal 1 for free (?)... too bad I already had it xD

You guys might argue a bit that it didn't take much time off, but 1, it's distracted a least a few of the whiners. 2, It has taken around ten hours off of the countdown. If you scroll up in the text box, you see the original release time. Then above it is the "recalculated" one. ~45 minutes now vs 10hr, 8min. And regardless, I do see Valve unlocking it early, once the 'computations' are complete.

I heard that if you have all 36 potatoes you get all VALVe games for free and get to play Portal 2 as soon as you have 'em all :shiftyninja:

That's true. A friend of mine got all the potatoes and Portal 2's been unlocked for him, along with all of VALVe's games.

    • I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
