Now Playing at PCs near you: Half-Life2

As you might have heard, the acti­va­tion servers for Half-Life2 are now allow­ing peo­ple to start play­ing. *sigh* It’s at times like these that I find my empty wal­let depress­ing. This is the one game that I’ve been wait­ing for all year, but I’m broke. I’m espe­cially broke because I want the game on DVD and the only way to get that in the US is to buy the collector’s edi­tion (~$80). Ouch! Ah well, maybe being broke is a good thing and they’ll put out a nor­mal edi­tion (~$50) on DVD later for the US. They’re already releas­ing a DVD ver­sion for Europe that doesn’t require you to spend all that extra money for the collector’s edi­tion; so it’s entirely possible.
