- shame on me -

It takes a noob to close the Half Life 2 Thread... It's day is done.. Bye bye noobie..

Good to see this whole thread wasnt closed because of 'pjtmanzano's' stupidity! The right course of action was taken by deleting his post and banning him. Excellent action by Eagle. ;)

serial already used
 

hi i bought hl2 recently and when i tried to play it it asked for the serial.
i inserted the serial and it said it had already been used.
i was thinking if one of you guys can give me their steam acc. and pass.(with hl2 registered)for 5 seconds so i could install hl2
thanks alot
mail me at karshan_devil**********com

@rocker15
And right from the start that is where you went wrong!!
If what you say about you cdkey already being used were true, and if this had happened to me, I would be back to the place I had purchased it from demanding a full refund!! Do you really think someone who has paid for the game is just simply going to give their account details to you for you to use! It really appears to me that you were NOT thinking! :(

Nice try but no go...

If you have bought the game and the serial is in use then you should return it, or contact Valve to get a working key... Lending out a steam account will not work!

BUY super cheap cigarettes and dvd-r vistit now <deleted>

does ne1 know of a crack for steam so tht wen u install HL2 u can just type the cdkey in and not insert the dvd? bcos i dont have a working DVD drive but i have HL2 on dvd n it says insert HL2 DVD 2 continue installation....

plz help me, i really wanna play CSs n HL2!!!! :)

@fluffybear
Maybe you should return the DVD to the place of purchase and swap it for the 5 CD version? Or purchase a new DVD player as they are extremly cheap now! Even in the UK.
Once you do manage to install HL2 then update it online and then you will not need to use the CD/DVD to play! ;)

cheers but it past the time 2 return it n they nowher ive seen stocks the 5 CD version, otherwise i'd of got it, n yeh im gonna get a dvd drive wen i get sum money, but i wer jus wonderin if there wer a patch.... :)
