It's really not fair to compare HL2 to Halo 2.

I used to play CS a lot and attended a few tourneys. I'm not into the game all that much now as it got boring, but i did meet some great people from that it

Re: Half Life 2 >>>> Halo 2

new egg.com had a 1 day sale for 29.99, it sol out in a couple hours..they were selling the import version, but no difference really...anyone have a problem with the loading times when getting to checkpoints in the single player...it takes 1 or 2 mins to load...anyone know how to turn off the auto save feature to stop this? also i'm playing it on a dell i8600 1.8 ghz pentium m processor, its on a 2 month old laptop...the single player is fine, just on the deathmatch it lags and might freeze for a moment...the lag kills the gameplay in deathmatch, but i sitll prefer halo multi player so far...when played a couple maps on deathmatch they didnt seem that big compared to halo...i need dsl or cable to play on deathmatch, dial up sucks

Theres another tweak that helps loading times a ton. Add the line "-heapsize [amount of ram in kilobites here]" to your launch options of the game. By default, the game only uses 64mb of ram to load things to, but you can increase the amount of ram it uses, which really speeds things up. You shouldnt use more than half of your physical ram though, so if you have 512 or ram, the line would read "-heapsize [256000]", if you have 1GB of ram it would read "-heapsize [512000]" etc. I have 1gb of ram and I only dedicated 384 of my ram to it and it helped out loading times tremendously. Hope that helps.
