    HL2 Half Price

    Just letting all you Darwin gamers know that HL2 is currently selling for half price at EB in Casuarina. It is $45 till the 27th of July, a bargin I think.

    So all you who still play cs 1.5 or similar now is a great opportunity to grab hl2 and unlock css so we can all play the one type of counterstrike at the next DGA.

    Just a reminder our DGA Game server is always running css and hl2dm

    Its just steam sucks its the worst writen god damn application i have ever come accross. 'ohh look steam is running in the background using 50 megs of memory wtf'. Its downloading files i havent even ask it to download.

    Seriously, i log onto the net and pop steam comes up, starts eating away at my net connection well i despreatly try to close down the god damn application. What makes it worse is i have to open it to play half life 2. For the love a god, why do i need to sign online so i can just play my half life 2. I found that getting a pirate copy of half life 2 was easier than installing it via steam.

    I pretty much stopped playing CSS and HL2DM because Steam just stopped working at one point and was whoring so much of the resources I couldn't be bothered rescuing it.

    I don't, and have never had a problem with Steam. It doesn't eat into my system or network resources unjustifiably, it doesn't crash or freeze, it doesn't stop working.

    I'm yet to understand how so many people have issues with it.

    Because its a PoS :p

    It works beautifully for some (like yourself) and for others (like me) it was an absolute BITCH. It was forever freezing and crashing on my machine and I'd have to restart it often in an attempt to take back my RAM
