This steam crap that it uses is pissin me off to no end. the CD key i got with my game keeps ringing in sa invalid... and i cant even play the game if it doesnt register... any solutions?

this is pissing me off

contact and get a valid one?

The game is pretty pwn once you get passed all the Steam BS. I've had to re-download the game like 3 times for some unknown reason.

Sadly though i hardly ever play it now, it's fun once you've A) Beaten it and B) played a few DM games.... they need to start pumping out some pwn mods before HL2 gets the "fun" factor that HL1 had/has.

and CS is not fun.

CS IS fun, just want more or new mods, come on ;(

the 'hunt saybel' mod is pretty nice

i heard the "stfu razor" is good too :p

;(

negative

there's a new half-life 2 addon game coming iirc...I'm looking forward to it. (;

I prefer playing on DM servers now as normal CS gets too boring.

CS is only boring if you are bad ... whereas when your main server lists you as kd: 2.74 w/ 1095/1628 kills being headshots, CS is fun
