HL2 is awesome. Dont be a hater! I used to have a geforce ti 4200 on my old PC and never got to experience HL2 the way it was meant to be played back when it came out. I did beat the game back then but it was not that great of an experience. I finished Ravenholm today (the proper way with no lag). Its the bestest game ever & I just wanna play it all day but can't due to these damn exams Sad

I want to say something mean or witty, but I feel sorry for you Sad. It's 2010! Even those legions of starving children in Africa have played HL2 by now! (and then probably devoured the install CD).

Not only is our chem final on Sunday, but its not even at our usual campus where we have class. Its at a different campus somewhere in downtown Manhattan. Our school is in the Upper East Side. I dont really mind the trip nor the day that its on since I don't do anything on Sundays anyways. But exam after exam is really starting to take a toll on my gaming

it could if the gaming is an mmo. other than that your not missing much but your buddies ranking/leveling/unlocking more but you can still play side by side so not hurting that bad.

I usually install HL2 once a year to give it a run through. Great game.

Do "final exams" mean that you will have some vacation once you take them? Or will that infernal cycle start again?

Yes after the final exams, no more class or exams until September. September is when the new semester starts. I just have to attend chemistry lab (which I dont consider a real class) during the month of June but then at the beginning of July I will be 100% on vacation

I have to study all day for the next few days. Just because the game is kind of old doesn't mean it sucks. I find it really hard to resist the temptation of double clicking my HL2 shortcut. Damn that game is so freakin good!!!

Will you stop it! I've got the Orange Box for my Xbox and I'm getting tempted to play it all over again! Laughing

Any word on the new episode 3 by the way? That thing's long overdue Exclamation

crybaby. You want to get a degree or be HL2 playing bum?

You have a whole year time to study a bit or throw useless chapters away. Unless you have the brain of a goldfish, you should pass it. You have 3-4 days/exam. djeez. I used to take evening school when i was in university. Studying evening school shit in the morning and uni in the afternoon.

I still passed, and no, i never attended the classes, because it is a waste of time. 5h class to explain something i can learn myself in 1 h, no thx. Maybe you should study more instead of dating craaaaaaaazy chicks

And HL2, really? I though that was boooooring. Floating with the stupid prop boat for hours....

don't be whiny little bitch and fucking sap

i'd rather fail at shit i do not and will never like and think back on some days and think i did whatever i liked and wated rather than be a fucking slave
shit , i'm almost finished with my 3rd year in college , i have 6 examans sofar that i havent been able to pass from my last 2 years and sincerely i do not give a fuck , i'm sorry about the 450 euros i'll have to pay to actually take those exams , but alas , shit happens and i have a whole fucking life to finish college.
and sadly , if i knew that i had a shot to study in Munchen , Frankfurt and Wien i would have tried harder with some examans and on the flip-side i would have missed some great games , so i'd say i'm on par with both.

I really didn't want to post on this as sounding as troll.. But the alcohol leads me into it.

I didn't read the replies to this but just the topic you posted originally, so without taking it personally just let me say the following; Be glad you have the opportunity to attend a school where you can attend those classes. If you have to give up gaming if even for 4 years, 6-7 if you're going Masters/PH.D, remember to be grateful. Eventually you can pick gaming back up when the games stop being terrible and you're rolling in enough dough to actually buy them rather than pirate them.

Good luck my friend, and as you said you have no time, I assume you aren't gaming but studying so I don't just assume you aren't focusing. Keep it up Smile

Mate, if you fail there are always exams each year. But games like HL2 come once in a life time. So make up your mind.

I prioritize... And Uni has priority over any game (yeah even HL2 Laughing). Since I have to pay for every class I retake the choice is pretty much a clear cut...
