I WANT TO PLAY HALF-LIFE 2: EPISODE 2 NOW.
*settles down*
Valve sends along word that both Portal and Half-Life 2: Episode 2 are available for pre-loading. If you've pre-purchased the Orange Box or any one of those titles by themselves, you can begin the download now in preparation for next weeks (October 10) launch. Team Fortress 2 also experienced some loving care two days ago, with an entire slew of bugs being ironed out. At this rate, the game should be bug-free for launch. That's how things work, right?
