Thanks for the links!

Has anyone tried these on Windows 7 64bit?

edit: works great with Win7 RC 64. I just got schooled in a game of HL2 death match. I'm so use to console FPS. I havn't played FPS on a PC in like 3 years.

They modify the game, make it different so it's fun to play again and again.

I can't get the portal demo to install

But i already have the halflife that was on there, so i don't know.

Everything but the portal demo worked for me. That i didn't already have from orangebox i mean.



Oh, you do have to have the original Half Life 2 in order to play those i think...

All games installed fine for me. Didn't try Portal since I have a Radeon card.
