Not exactly speaking their language, the last Halo game that came out on PC was 10 years ago (and also 3 years too late)

Cool story, I bought a box copy of Half Life 2 and couldn't use it for years because I had no internet

True story, I bought an ATI video card that came with a serial number for a free copy of HL2. But then the source code leaked and the game didn't launch for two or three more years and by the time I went to scratch off silver lottery ticket covering that was covering the serial code, it had dried out or something and the coin scratched off the serial number too.

So I had to buy HL2.

You can get destiny on PvP for free if you sell your World of Warcraft gold.

I played hl1 for free on my old windows 98 pc, and I remember I jumped when I had to bring the Titan towards the electrified fence. Then my c: disk got corrupted and after reinstalling windows I was like "oh gently caress I didn't finish Half Life... Do I want to go through the slog of the flooded power plant and the silo with the giant tentacles?" And answered myself naaah.

Pre-ordering a game in 2017, after No Man's Sky! Shame on you all.

I would never pre-order a game (without a good discount) because I've played about a billion online-only games and launch days are always shitshows. Playing a day later is where it's at. All the spergs will have already started complaining about lack of content, been ranked out of normal people's matchmaking, and soaked up all the launch day network stuff.

It's not 3 years old.

And Bungie is chasing the competitive gaming scene like a 16 year old trying to get laid for the first time so that should be pretty fun to watch.
