HALF-LIFE 2 UNLOCK SHOCK

Want to play Half-Life 2 early? Don't bother…

15:53 We're aware this story has been rumbling around for a while, but it's resurfaced again this weekend as with a release date drawing ever closer, understandably impatient Valve fans can't wait to unlock all that lovely Steam-powered goodness sitting on their hard drives.
A word of caution though: if you see anything named or purporting to be: Half-Life 2 unlocker, rft-hl2u or hl2unlock.exe - one word: avoid.

Far from being your key to a garden of unearthly Valve delight, these Trojans will ask you to input your Steam account details, steal them and send them off to a nefarious hacker for their consumption, delight and possible profit.

Besides there's not long to go now anyway and wouldn't you rather experience HL2 in its full unfettered glory exactly as Valve intended it?

Cough up the entirely reasonable asking price and it's yours for the playing, use a reputed unlocker and a world of pain and identify theft undoubtedly await.
