Then your screwed unless you can get a cheap ass 56k modem, an AOL disk and have access to a phone.

I've heard alot of complaints about the system but unfortunately its the only way to try and curb piracy. Hell, HL2's preloads had been happening since awhile back and it has yet to be pirated but I know hackers are at work on trying to make a crack.

Steam pisses me off. I hate having to deal with it, but I understand how it helps deal with the hacker situation. The new project for hackers everywhere I bet is to crack Steam. The piece of....

By the way, I'm about to tap into my precious college savings to buy this game. It is exciting me to an orgasmic state in anticipation.

I just bought it and I'm waiting for it to update itself. It started saying that it would be ready to play in 830 minutes and I was like, "WTF!" But it keeps on going down like 2 minutes every second, so it shouldn't be too long.

ARG, I hate Steam!!!

OMG!... This is starting to scare me... I buy the game boxed, then I still have to wait hours so I can get it validated? F***ing Steam...

BTW, hacking/pirating games isn't so hard in Steam. I know because I've seen tutorials and patches for it. And I accidentally (I swear! I was just trying to get my old username back.) "bought" Opposing Force off Steam.

So, in short, Steam sucks!

I didn't have to wait hours to get it validated. It took about 10-12 minutes or so but it still got through fine.

Now that I'm awake, time for more HL2
