HL2 had loads of WOW, EP 1 for me lost all that somehow :confused:

I found it a tad boring (so now hopefully you go into it not expecting much and enoy it

), ps in answer to your question my mates 6600gt and 3000 venice ran it fine

I just got average of 52fps with my xp2500 (stock) and a 6800gt

i hate anything less than 60fps

the fact that i 've had so many problems with it?

And I have had none what so ever.

Nothing wrong with Steam. In fact, I think it's a fantastic content delivery system.

I very much doubt that Ep2 lost you.

Aparentely multi-threading is being added to the source engine soon.

The vast majority of people have no Steam problems these days, sure there were issues when Half-Life 2 was released and everybody tried to unlock at the same time, same with any major release, but it's expected.

Funnily enough, no I didn't.

BoomAM · 2 Nov 2006 at 18:08

Cant say i did either tbh.
A few minor issues, bizzarly, on my 2nd play through, but the first time, none at all.

I run it at high settings, 1920x1200 on a 7800GT and 3700+, looks and runs perfect to me

well it did. how bout the fact that I had played MANY great games since I first played HL2 and had also probably remembered HL2 as the greatest thing I had ever played so playing EP1 what feels like years later the WOW for me was no longer there

Episode 2 hasn't even been released yet, that's what he was getting at.

LOL thanks for pointing that out as you can probably guess it was an accident

I meant to say EP1
