Gryph Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 (edited) Yeah, they caught him. The German police arrested him. It's pretty stupid how he got caught. Edited December 9, 2004 by GryphonKlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corn99 Posted December 9, 2004 Author Share Posted December 9, 2004 i know its off topic but can u tell me how he got caught and is it worth downloading hl2 alpha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 i know its off topic but can u tell me how he got caught and is it worth downloading hl2 alpha.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> He started corresponding with Gabe Newell (Valve's main man) and he was eventually trapped that way. Gabe offered him a fake job at Valve so when he'd come he'd be arrested by FBI but the German government wouldn't allow it so they arrested him. And no, it's not worth downloading it since it's highly illegal and it's just old...if you're going to download it illegaly might as well get the real version of the game. But if you are into FPS games, I urge you to buy it, it's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gryph Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 Your processor and RAM are fine. The only thing that troubles me is the graphics processor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 (edited) hey grif i have the Half-Life+Blueshift disc for my dreamcast, ill take screenies/vids if you want, its very real, It runs perfectly on the DC too, There is only FPS problems very rarely and it seems randomly, like when the dreamcast has been on all day, if i reset the dreamcast it will usually work fine, its nothing serious though, its a drop to like 27FPS at the lowest, it runs average at about 45FPS i think, very smooth Edited December 9, 2004 by Shibathedog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
