Philippe Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Did anyone else get Half Life 2? When i bought my video card last Christmas, it came with a free copy of Half Life 2 when it came out. Well yesterday it came out and i automatically got my free copy and its amazing. The graphics are better then anything ive ever seen. I was just wondering if anyone else had gotten this game and how they liked it. I myself am enjoying it even though i havent played ocmputer games in the longest time. Let me know!!!! - Philippe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paladin D Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) Yep, you're the lucky one . A) My family wouldn't want me to have it (too graphical and freaky). B) I don't have a powerful machine to run it. Btw, what are the specs of your PC?

Paladin D Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) Come to think of it, I would be able to run it but... barely. My PC has: - 1.6ghz Pentium 4 processor - 1gb of RAM - 64mb GeForce 2 MX graphics card [url="http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/halflife2/techinfo.html"]http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/halflife2/techinfo.html[/url] Edited November 18, 2004 by Paladin D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it's like building a Lego set, if so... it shouldn't be a problem really (used to be a Lego Maniac). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
