Download speed isn't the problem, really. I live out in the middle of nowhere, so the only internet connections available are dial-up and satellite. The service we use is one of the satellite systems, and they have a daily download cap of 200 megs. If you download anything even approaching that... your bandwidth is throttled to the point where your internet connection is slower than dial-up. Very annoying stuff. So I could get the first 150-200 megs, but then I would be pretty much cut off.

That is a sucky thing to have happen :( could you not close steam after ~70 megs a day? It picks up where it left off, you could get it in 3-4 days :/

Don't be jealous ;)

I think we're all a little jealous of Gordon Freeman, if only for the 'you don't have to talk to people, but they'll still like you' part.

PizzaSHARK:
Personally I wish I were capable of picking up any gun and have it never jam, never need to be cleaned, never have to worry about exposure to any adverse condition, and be able to fire it accurately and efficiently at a dead run.
