Half-Life 2 Question

[kerrywins]

Is the registration with Steam a big deal?
I mean, if I register and then get a new computer with a new operating system...can I play on the new computer? Or since its already installed on the old one can I not?
On ign.pc they said it was mandatory to register with STEAM before you could play...

2. I was wondering the same thing, I have no idea though.

My copy of the game was free from the Radeon 9800XT I bought a long time ago. So I don't even have CD's to install, I have to download from Steam.

Wish I could help. :(

Right now, I'm stuck in a spot and I had to quit playing because it was actually making me nauseous (from the motion, I've never had that happen before, weird).

4. Try asking in the gaming forum

if you don't get an answer in here. I was reading there earlier today and noticed a Half-Life 2 topic. We don't have it yet though it's not from lack of begging on the kids part.

5. if you delete the old installation

you can install on a new computer and download it that way.

i'm not sure if you're talking of buying HL2 on steam, or in a store and just using steam to register it. the registration is easy, but you can only use it on one PC per game.
