Take the good with the bad....

Okid dokie... As some of you know, i dont get to have a drop of caffeine or alcohol for a month (starting yesterday....)

However.... Today... i am purchasing... THE HALF-LIFE2 GOLD BUNDLE!!! Thats right, i am paying $89.95 for the following:
▪ Half-Life 2*
▪ Counter-Strike:Source
▪ Half-Life 1: Source*
▪ Day of Defeat: Source*
▪ Valve's back catalog available on Steam.
▪ PLUS: HL2 posters, full strat guide, soundtrack, hat, collector's box, postcard & more


Yes i am that big of a nerd, but i am fucking dying for this. the stuff with the * still isnt released, but i get my hands on a shiny new version of Counter-Strike, which is a form of crack to me. I cant smoke or drink, but i can kick the crap out of 13 year olds online, which is almost as good.

the best part? when releaded, i get the updated version of the original half-life... This has me drooling... Half-life is my all-time favorite game (so far)... it is going to seriously kick ass in the new engine.

Why all the hubub? Look at this:


I cant FUCKING wait....:D

Even though I enjoy pics of people with alien monsters on their heads as much as the next guy ... even this thread is too nerdy for me.

I was considering getting either the bronze or the silver package, but decided against it, as you dont get anything on cd/dvd, you have to get it all from steam via download. Not to keen on steam either.

Looking forward to CSSource, since 1.6 came out I've not played CS as much, left a couple of clans and started playing DoD, but DoD is being upgraded to the Source engine so that should be good.

I'm gona wait for a complete retail package to get released in the shops and get it that way. I know I'm gona have to wait a bit longer, but Hell!! we've been waiting for years for HL2, so a few more weeks wont be too painfull.

AREA: infinite.
The Hitchickers guide to the galaxy provides this definition of the word infinite.
Bigger than the biggest thing ever and then some. Much bigger than that in fact, really amazingly immense, a totally stunning size, real "wow thats big," time. Infinity is just so big that, by comparison, bigness itself looks really quite titchy. Gigantic multiplied by colossal multiplied by staggeringly huge is the sort of concept were trying to get across here.

IMPORTS: none
It is impossible to import things into an infinite area, there being no outside to import things in from.

EXPORTS: none
(see imports)
