Just wondering for all the people who bought half life 2, which box did you choose? Mr. Freedman, G man, or that Alex chick? and why?

I bought the one with g man cause looked a bit more scary

Only person on this site I think that has not gotten it yet!! My will power owns all.

That, and the fact that I have been way too freaking busy with work and everything else to get it. Not to mention trying to find time to play

I haven't gotten it yet... I don't think my box would run it... I feel like someone killed my puppy.

No probs getting it off of steam for me...took like 3-4 hours to get all the content down (got the silver pkg) and had to zip it to get it to fit on a dvd.
But, I listened to my fellow forum mates and got it off steam. (yes I hate them too)

Well i have the hl2 voucher and i also bought the game, hl2 automaticly chose my hl2 voucher key so i didnt have any problems "validating it", all together took about 1hour on dial up. im trying to sell my other key to my friends

Is anyone else having to validate files almost every time they log onto steam? Each time it takes about 5-8 minutes. WTF?

Mine had to validate them the first couple of times too. There didn't seem to be any real reason of why it did one time, but not the next. I agree though I had to start the game, go make dinner, do the laundry, and by the time I got back it was finally ready to play. Other times it took about 30-45 seconds.
