 Im in the trap town levels and having less fun in them as i had when i was on foot in the canals. the airboat was ok when you got to stop and fight and figure a puzzle, aside from that it wasnt to much fun not being able to do anything about that damn helo. Spoiler: But once the gun was straped on it was ok. I love how damn near everything can be manipulated in some way, now that i have the gravity gun its even more open to messing with things. Im not extreamly far into the game yet as it seems to be fairly long and so far im finding it well worth the 5 some odd years in development. It even feels like the original, sounds that carried over, and the "cutscenes" you take part in are all just the same as the original. Utterly impressive, i wish i didnt have to go to work tonight or i would have played more. |

 bean, if you have zonealarm or some firewall program where you have to give it permission to access the internet, disable it or give it permission before hand, or minizme it and see if that is the problem. |

 This game is frickin' great, my decent pc is a:
 p4 3.0 ghz
 512 ddr
 120 hd
 radeon 9800 pro......
 
 BUT.....
 
 All I've had to use is my old pc to play because i need to fix my modem on the good pc.
 
 It actually runs damn well on my:
 
 Dell dimension 4300
 p4 1.5ghz
 1gig sdram
 ..and a GEFORCE 2 TI!! lol bout 25-35 fps I reckon, i was expecting 3-6 fps.
 
 very little slowdown at all, this game looks gorgeous and all my details are on low. However I'm not playing anymore due to the fact i wanna play thru it on high details. The phsyics are great, love the ragdoll effects too, I actually laughed about the 'can in trash' part.
 
 However on this old pc i had troubles with Steam, took bout 30mins to install, 45 mins to unlock the game and I had log in problems too, hope they fix it all.
 
 I fucking love it, so many nice sequences, I don't know how anyone wouldn't wanna play it, I've yet to try CS which shall be nice.
 
 Don't post any spoilers in here.
 
 I wanna jump off a high City 17 building to test out my physics freak:
