I'm actually 1% glad (and 99% sad) that Half-Life 2 hasn't been released yet, for the simple fact that Steam is probably alot better now then it was in September 2003. I haven't installed it yet, but I frequent (as a lurker, mostly) the Steam forums and the general volume of 'I hate steam' posts has steadily declined.
Also, have you guys seen the new binks, of ravenholm and tenements? Drool-inducing.
And now a question: How many people are willing to download the game instead of buying it at a store and have something tangible (ala manual, CDs, etc)? Is the only benefit of doing this not needing to pre-order and wait in lines/get up early to get to the store to buy the game?
