Umm I believe that you need steam to activate the game. Some people had bought HL2 from stores a couple days ago but couldn't get it work because the activation servers weren't up.

Just cause and effect. People pirate games, they introduce more secure ways to ensure their product is protected.

Well i've got my copy, now the hard choice:

- Rush home as soon as my practical finishes at 5 and play

OR

- Accept my friends offer to take my newly (almost) painted Tau army down to Games WOrkshop for the first time and play 4th ed 40K for the first time!

gah!
