That's it.
A cross between a lottery and "first come, first served".

If there aren't too many people in front of you, you get a copy of Hl2.

You can either wait for the flash to run it's course and then click on "register here" or you can click on the large bug when it shows up ( I suspect that's the better idea ).
This will get you a registration screen that will ask you for your name, what video card you have and your e-mail.
Fill it out, click submit and you're in the lottery.
I'm sure they'll be handing out games, I DON'T know if they'll also award new Radeons, either way it's worth a shot.
And no, they don't sell the info.
That's how ATI usually does these things.
They've done it before but I never caught it in time for the effort to be worth it.

It's worth a shot. I'm a HUGE fan of Half-Life and all it's mods.

You will probably get an E-Mail saying "Screw you.... GO TO THE GAME YOU BUM"
but anyway has anyone seen that they are giving the game away? I havent and I dont know of anyone one that has seen anything saying that they are giving away the game. :mad:

How long before they send me my copy do you think?

I don't have a crystal ball and I don't have any input about delayed releases.
I also note that it was a lottery/first sign up thing.
So, you find out along with the rest of us.
Welcome to an uncertain world.
