Hi All,
Last night, against my better judgement, I bought the silver package from valve online. To be honest, i think that i should have just got the boxed one to have a hard copy but thats impulse buying for you.
Im about 82% of HL2 downloaded and ive heard that you can backup the downloaded game files. Has anyone done this yet? Is it a decent utility. Comments would be appreciated. Also, does it just stash the files on the DVD, or is there a full installer, like on the retail DVD version?
I ask because I always reformat my drive pretty much every 6 months or so and will i be able to install off the burned DVD time again? Finally, i know that you have to activate HL2 before playing but - again due to reformatting - does this have to be done everytime you reinstall?
Thanks in advance peeps!
