UK Half-Life 2 DVD Only? [Oct 05, 2004, 07:11 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A post on
Halflife2.net (thanks Stoo) reports they've received indications from U.K. retailers
that the Half-Life 2 will be released in the U.K. on DVD only. They don't have
word on the remainder of Europe, though they point out and that the Far Cry CD
edition was not sold across the pond either.
Actually I've never needed a DVD drive before that's why a don't have one. I did have one in '98 but never found a use for it during the machines life (actually I did once find retail dvd's for 30 quid but it turned out my little 333 couldn't decode them without skipping a frame every couple of seconds).
And as my machine is a 2400+ with 1gig of ram, 120gb hdd and a 9800 pro yes I think it will run HL2 just fine thank you.
My main issue with this is I only want HL2 not Counter Strike, HL1 Source or any other bolocks they put on the dvd.
I tried counter strike quite a lot back in the summer of '99 - it was full of annoying kids then - why the hell should I pay for a dvd drive so I can not play it now???
