looks like most gamers in India will get to play the game when it is gone "platinum"
i mean when it is cracked

It is sad that a game is available earlier in the pirated version than it comes officially in the country

I got the game free with my ATI 9800XT :lol: 6 monyhs ago.Actully they just gave me the KEY.I downloaded the FUUL GAME by using STEAM,a software made by VALVE to distribute not only halflife2 :wink: but the full collection(HL1.counter strike,opposing forceetc) :lol: :lol:

man damn ATi only gave hl2 keys with XT cards and not with Pro versions :(
So is half life 2 gonna b cracked ?? or has it already been cracked???
AS for now not many in India have got thre hands on the game
Is the original game available for purchase in India now?

Seems that everyone would have to buy Hl2 if u wanna play the game whens its Hot

netcracker, i think buying the game would have been cheaper than downloading it

yep its all done n many repented for it too :) what i mean to say is valve did put brakes on many on warez sites too !
Those smart asses not only cracked games but found out the ways to download from steam illegally!

Got HL 2 on the day it reased..used steam to get it.Great game.

Man u say u got it on 16 th itself
then u say that it took u 4 days to download 2.5 gb on reliance

but i guess it was avilable for download only from 17
so 4 days from 17 to the best of my knowledge is 17+4 =21
so it wod have completed on 21?
n man u r here on 20 mid nite or shld i say abt 12:15 am on 21 ,saying u have played it already

hard to digest no bitter feelings meant

since you have already played it then do post in ur gaming xperience how was it , n stuff post some genuine screenshots from ur pc if u can~~ :lol:

The download was available before the game was released in an encrypted format.on the 16th at abt 1:30 the game was activated...took 15mins for activation..and as for game details do you realy want me to spoil it for you. :roll:

one thing...for all those who dont have a net connection there is no way to play the game. As it needs a net connection to verify your CD key. Unless you have the cracked EXE's which lets you play the game offline.

Sourabh

netcracker: man i just cant imagine htf did ya manage to download hl2 which is almost 2.5 gb
there is no way in hell u can do that on bsnl dialup too
u cant get a speed more than 6 kbps for download on it
so how much total timedid it take for u to download

icecoolz:

theres a cracked exe file availble
i mean theres a version of game hacked for offline use completely damn!! :lol:

Ok let me make this little clear.....As I said earlier I have a BSNL sancharnet line for which I pay a fixed Charge i.e.500rs per month.this is actualy my phone bill , so I can use the connection to my whimps and fancies.I can use it for the whole month and just pay 500rs.
:lol: :lol:

As for the download I might have miscalculated.the download was available in sept. and was in parts or phases.Each time I downloaded this small chunks texturs,maps,etc.So I realy don't know how long it took. :roll:

The game but is realy worth all this the graphics are amazing and gameplay is the best...beter then DOOM3. :twisted:
