Half-life 2 is out at last but unfortunately I don’t have the graphics card to run it yet. However I’m actually not all that worried about it because from what I’ve seen of the game so far is not exactly bug free. Looking at the steam forums it looks like my younger brother isn’t the only one suffering from serious crashing, sound and graphics issues, Not to mention the huge problems with authentication via steam.
So hopefully I’ll have enough cash in a about 3-4 weeks to get a graphics card (probablly something like this) and a copy of the game. I’m hoping by this time allot of the issues will be sorted out just in time for me to actually enjoy the game and not build anymore negative associations with it.
