I've got another 5 hours here at work before I can even think about starting to download it. Bugger, but it is a nice birthday present. Thanks Valve :-D

Hooray! It's interesting, these sys requirements are lower than they were quoting back when. I guess they did some optimisation.

I don't think the SDK has been updated.
It was pretty taxing on my comp on medium, but I liked the commentary system.

ARGHH! I didn't meet the system requirements... :cry:

I don't really care that much about HDR, I just want DA MAPS!!! :twisted: I'm in need of new inspiration fer my maps.

And how ironic, it's my mother's b-day today, so maybe i shud give Lost Coast to her :? LOL JK she doesn't have a computer.

P.S. IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME THIS CAME OUT, I have grown impatient fer it, and also, how long has it been since we first heard about Lost Coast?!?

You gotta appreciate the work that has gone into this level before you begin the moaning sessions. Don't forget that Valve have stepped into unknown waters with this technology, and it's a testament to their staff that they made this level happen.

Check out the commentary sections, you'll see what I mean.

Argh, it crashed while loading when I first tried it. It got to where the menu title and buttons were loaded but nothing happened and I couldn't click anything.
