Default HL2 requires internet activation - 22-10-2004

This game had better be a masterpiece of singleplayer, considering all the problems with it (like this).

By adding crap like this, and making some features (Day of Defeat, HL1 Source) only available when you buy certain packages, they're only encouraging piracy.

that's also one of the reasons why I don't use Windows XP btw.

I think this will be another reason why I won't buy HL2.

Well the illegal warez version of XP Pro is great (as it's cracked and doesn't need to be activated), but the legal version is not
Just imagine the day when M$ or Valve is closed, or there is only something wrong with their activision server... then your software can no longer be used.
also I prefer Debian's version of GNU/Linux distribution as it has tons of packages

Heyyo,

Whooaaa.... no HL2 multiplayer DM mode? weak... guess it's gonna have to be a mod, but I'm sure it'll turn out nice once someone makes it...

But I hope that TF2 gets made finally as planned, I loved TF1.5, with oddbot, ahh the good ol' days


Later-a-much, and LONG LIVE THE D!,

It wouldnt surprise me if someone made a TFC clone for the Source within the first few months after HL2 comes out.
