WTF are you talking about? It's a fricken game! What knife in the back? WTF? How is a game company putting a knife in our backs? It's a game? You play it and forget it...nuff said! You're taking this WAY too seriously dude. You need to back off a little and think about your priorities.

Sheesh. Knife in the back. If Valve all of a sudden decided to pull the plug and never again allow HL2 or CS to be played ever again on Steam...again, who cares? Game...remember? I got way way WAY more than my 30 bucks bought me years ago for the original HL...then I bought the upgrade and that again was like 40 bucks...so what, in the past 5 or so years for 70 bucks I got literally hours and hours and hours of entertainment from this thing. More than I can say for other things. Hell, I drop more than that on DVDs and CDs on a typical week.

What's the deal. Why do you even care?

What is the big hairy deal with you people and Steam? I've had Steam since day one...I've never ever ever had any problems with it ever...I load it and play. When I'm not playing it, I don't have it loaded. I played HL2 and CS:Source the day they came out. Every fricken time there is a Steam story on here people come out of the woodwork for what? Boycott it. Why? Um...because! They've yet to ever put a valid argument to it, so please, don't even try.

Give me a break.

Or would you rather have him making another WW2 shooter? At least he's one of the few game designers left in the industry that will actually do what he wants to do and not fall into the same pit that other developers have with making 'me too' games.


Yes, I will give him props for trying new things and thinking outside the mainstream when it comes to games. It's just his vision never seems to translate down to the actual game that he makes.

Although, perhaps a WW2 shooter with giant monsters that you have to feed!

Wait, this is the guy that brought us both "Black and White" and "Fable"...the two games with the highest hype to disappointment ratio of just about anything out there.

I'll wait on buying this one. Fool me once and I'll give you a second shot...fool me twice and I'll wait about 6 months after release to see where the game really is.

So much for all the console makers trying to convince us that PC gaming is dead.

Wow, forgotten how messed up that show was.

Also, when you're watching this note the little tag-lines of the particular show topic they're on. "Pregnant by Transsexual" was good.

Middle Earth Online would probably have been a hit if it had come out 5 years ago when it was first planned. But they pulled the plug on it so many times that it's going to be so late and so lame when it comes out I doubt it would fill even one server.

Not to mention the fact that at launch you won't be able to play on the side of Sauron...only the good side.

I think everyone is missing the point here. She does NOT have a legit case here. She bought something that was ment AND labeled for people of 17 and over. She bought it for her 14 year old grandson.

It's like taking a 14 year old to an R rated movie then wanting to sue the theater because it had a graphic depiction of a beheading in it.

I expect this to be thrown out.

This is a bogus story that's made up from a post from a forum from someone that had just created the account. The only news sources that are linked to it are other stories on p2pnet.

Totally looks and smells like it's made up

Anyone else read that quickly and think that a Doctor Who died?

"Doctor Who Made Atlantic Crossing, Dies". Like, did Tom Baker make a crossing across and die from the trauma?

Anyway, the real story is even more interesting than that!

I agree with you on that there rock climber. I didn't say that it was better or worse than the old CS. Was just commenting on your other posts about how we bought the game twice. I never bought the game at all...but I agree with you that it's still the same game with pretty pictures.

Oh, and you can shoot bottles and barrels...oh oh, and tires too. But it's still fun, no matter how you slice it. It was fun back then, it's still fun now and then. But honestly I don't play it that much anymore.

You tards, you had to by the HL1 engine and Source engine to PLAY CS. So you paid for it twice. Nice try though.

Um...I bought HL1 to play HL1...then a FREE mod came out called Counterstrike that wasn't owned by Valve but buy a bunch of guys that made the Mod. Later Valve bought them out and then went on to release CS as a stand alone game.

THEN I bought HL2 to play HL2...it just-so-happened to come with CS:S. I didn't buy either to play CS...they were just free perks to the game I was actually buying.

Nice try though...nah, on second thought...pretty crappy try.

Yeah, releases come every week. They're actually TRYING to make it better and better AND these updates aren't just bug fixes they also add new content. Dice and EA are notorious for dragggggginnnnnggggg they're feet when it comes to fixing a game. Which is evident so far.

But hey, maybe in about 4 or 5 months BF2 will be a decent game, it's just not quite there yet. That's just me. But I'm tired buying beta versions of games...and that goes for everything, not just BF2.

Yeah, I'm done with BF2. I'm chauking it up to a 50 dollar lesson in not buying a game when it first comes out. Buy it 6 or 8 months down the road when all the patches (and the recalling of patches) is over.

People are just point whores and no one plays defense because hey, you're not gettin the phat points! Plus the idiots that threw themselves in front of a vehicle JUST to punish you. I got targeted buy a bunch of losers on one server and I was in the negative numbers before I just quit. Enough, it was no longer fun. CS at least loads in a few seconds...BAM you're out playing.

No, I've never bought CS ever. I bought Half-Life once and CS was a free Mod for it. Then I bought Half-Life 2 and CS again was a free Mod for it.

And CS:S is new. I mean, you can shoot barrels!

I've always hoped for a total conversion that was a Wild West one. Sort of like a CS but set in the Wild West. Six guns, Winchesters, Knife Throwing, Gatling Guns...I think there's a lot of potential there.

they're all fake, including Bullit

How old are you kid? Please go back to school.


I'm probably older than most people here at 43...but do you really think the Bullit chase scene was real? It was staged, as ALL car chases are staged. Staged back then, staged today.

Or are you really that gullible?

What are you guys talking about? Everyone crying over why Ronin didn't get included when the fricken My Dinner With Andre isn't included. Bah...

And with the guy saying that Matrix Reloaded shouldn't be there cause it's fake...hate to break it to ya...they're all fake, including Bullit

Um...didn't anyone else notice that it was fake arm-skin for that trick? I mean, the dude had a big-ass wristband on to hid the seam and I'm not sure if anyone has actually cut their skin there but there is much more blood and the cut skin doesn't look like latex.

And all these people are standing around saying "gross" and "oh my god"...where's the people saying "wow, nice latex arm there dude"?

What huge enormous balls EA has for coming out with this after this piece of shit buggy game they laid out for us.

Don't even THINK about another expansion until you fix this, assholes.
