    Half Life 2 - Just bought the game and can't even play

    GOD DAMN Steam bullshit..

    I have to create an account to play and the server is not responding..

    I understand that's going to stop the illegal copies but looks like they were not prepared with the traffic..

    That's so frustrating..

                                                  Yeah, I was gonna make a thread about that fucking Steam shit. I had problems trying to register, but I kept trying and I got it. The authentication where it unlocked the game files took FOREVER.

                                                          I have had to stop playing now, my eyes are starting to bother me. I'm not used to playing or using my 21inch monitor lately. Damn game is fun and there are some hard spots early in the game.

                                                                                                  it's been about 8 hours for me and i guess I'm almost done,
