The day has finally come, and Half-Life 2 is available for download on Steam, and should be in most stores. Even if you buy the boxed version, you have to activate it on Steam, so make sure you have an internet connection on the computer you plan to play on.

This is the only day in the past year that makes me sad that I only have Macs. :( And though the speed improvements to Virtual PC 7 may be good, I don’t think it’s good enough to run Half-Life 2 yet. So, enjoy Half-Life 2, you Windows-using bastards. :)
