    Got around to playing through HL 2 and the 2 episodes again over the past couple of weeks.
    They still stand up very well.

    Even if there were no new mechanics and it was just the same gameplay, a different storyline and better graphics I'd still be pretty happy to spend 40 quid or so on a new one. Love that game.

    I have a stupidly large backlog of games at the moment but I'm going to have to give in and replay HL2 for a while, thanks to all the hype out there at the moment. I'm really looking forward to it too!

    No chance, as the internet will break as soon as Valve announce it (in 2016 or whenever the actually announce it).

    You have a mental disorder known as hypertabulic obsession, or HTO. Primary symptom is long browsing sessions with compulsive refusal to close tabs, resulting in an obscenely cluttered tab bar.

    Thankfully it is terminal.

    Isn't that a little excessive, Tar? I mean there must be a limit to the number of Avril Lavigne pics even you can ogle at one time...

    Wasn't trying to fool anyone by not embedding the video, just didn't want to take up space.

    Woohoo, Steam Machines. It wasn't a great surprise that it's finally been announced, but it's nice all the same. I'm really impressed that the hardware isn't a single manufacturer. I think this could be the start of something great (please don't let it be a failure). It'll also be interesting to see the price range to see how they'll compete with current consoles.

    Now to get part of the Beta team.
    I unfortunately am not eligible, I only have 7 Steam friends. Guess I should have been more active on the boards.ie community page.
    If anyone is lucky to be part of it, please start a thread on it.

    I wouldn't get my hopes up. Whoever does get one though will probably talk about it a fair bit on various websites though so I'd say expect to see plenty of coverage. I think it's a pretty cool idea just giving them out to regular people instead of the press. Kind of bestows a sort of celebrity-status on the winners for a short while.

    Ha! Three dudes eh? I'm not going to randomly send friend requests as if I'm on myspace. It would seem a little desperate especially since my Steam username is different than my boards one (I'm a little paranoid). I need to play more multiplayer games I guess.

    I know there's only 300 but I wouldn't be surprised in the least if there was a jammy boards member who was accepted.

    It's not a phishing site, all links off it go to the actual steam site (including the login page). It's solely a site set up for the joke
