Yes actually. O_Oshocked2.gif Not maxed, of course, but it will run. My friend frank used to run it on a geforce 5-series so... If you have a slow cpu or not much ram loading will take a long time though. :oohmy.gif

^lots of posts where 9250 = win^
You could also dl a demo, just to be sure. :)smile.gif

Ah okay, you should have no problems then I expect, hehe. Hey, if you happen to have lots of money, on steam they gots a special holiday pack for $50 that includes hl1:source (a remake of half life 1 with the source engine), hl2, hl2:ep1, cs:s, hl1:deathmatch:source, hl2:deathmatch. So... lots of stuff which you could get in the regular packages for like $70 or something.

Well, if you don't want to pay for it over steam, they have the christmas special for half life 2 right now (wal-mart for sure) in stores, although it has less than the game of the year edition had (everything but Day of Defeat: Source).  If you are looking for the first Half Life though, you will either have to dig deep in the bargin bin or buy it on steam.

Also, Half Life: Source is not that interesting if you have the first one cause there isn't that much difference.  All that it has is different water, glass, and shatter effects.  All the models and maps are still pretty much one generation back.

well they have both HL1 and HL2, so i should be fine. I may get counter strike: source too though if it run on systems like mine

however, if you noticed in my xfire userbar in my forum signature I spend most of my time in starcraft ;)wink.gif

Aye, I figured the holiday pack would be a good deal for xlibman 'cause it comes with hl1:source, hl2, and episode 1 (so, the entire half life series so far) as well as including all the multiplayer-only games like deathmatch and counter strike. Normally the $50 pack doesn't include episode 1. (a $20 game by itself)

You do have to use steam to play these games anyways, so unless you really care about having boxed copies I recommend just buying and downloading online with steam. Can dl steam from the www.steampowered.com website.

Yes. Just dl from steam. I forgot since I haven't bought from Steam (long time ago I bought HL1 from store), but you get CS, Team Fortress, etc. right?

holiday set doesn't have team fortress but it has CS:S and the hl1 deathmatch: source and hl2 deathmatch.

honestly, I don't have ANY of my steam games in boxes O_Oshocked2.gif all of them I just bought online and dled.

Also, the steam servers are down today. (a first in my experience!) because of giant wind storms in oregon and washington. (servers are in seattle I think) I live in portland oregon and I was like ZOMG I hope the windows don't break. Lots of people around here still don't have power! lots of powerlines and trees fell down. I guess the steam server place is one of those. Fortunately I live in one of the lucky neighborhoods that still has power--woot. Should be fixed by tomm. I think. Just a few minutes ago it was doing crazy-a** hailing here too! O_Oshocked2.gif The weather is on crack or something today.

yeah, there is even a house in my neighborhood that a tree fell on and the roof caved in. Apparently there was a blizzard on mt. hood and a lot of people are stuck up there too. I think I got lucky, hehe.
