This is stupid. I open my shiny new Half Life II package and install the game. Now, I wanna play but I can't until I register right. No problem until

 

I CAN'T FIND THE CD KEY ANYWHERE ON BOX, IN BOX , OR ON CD PACKAGE.

 

WHAT NOW?

I have just the basic game no special package with t-shirt or booklets or anything. This thing doesn't even come with a manual in the box. I don't need a manual but I thought maybe someone new to the game might. Valve as usual sucks. Their games are good but that's where it ends I believe. Can someone help me find my CD key?

it should be on the envelope of the first disc, if not, keep looking. if u still cant find it, go back to the store and ask for an exchange

yes there is a number on the bootom of the back of the first disc. I have entered that thing many times and I am sure I didn't make any mistakes but no good.

is caplocks on, maybe it's case sensitive :?

 

but yes, valve truly does suck ass

The number/letters maybe look the same, like "1" looks like "I".

 

Just try different things.

lol u silly billy

the code on that first cd sleeve has 2 lines of code

12345-12345-12345-12345-12345 ( a 5 part CD key )

271168733 Halflife2 (Serial information) that is useless do not enter)

lol u silly billy

yes, I am a silly billy but I did figure it out before I saw your post. Valve didnt specify it was a 25 digit code so I entered all the numbers.

 

They should have CD Keys for dummies I guess.

 

Valve still sucks.

That's if Klink will play CS:S, because he just loves FA so much he can't seem to live without it, or stop playing to play something else, but who knows maybe he'll give it a try. :wink:

your wellcome

 

you really need to stop.

Here, the hl2 package don't have a cd key that you can watch it on anywhere: the cd key is integrated into the dvd hl2 game.

There is a hard protect for do not make a copy for anybody: if steam find 2 identical keys = the both are perma banned for ever! <--- New anti copy system.

When you install the hl2 package, the key is automaticaly read on the dvd and installed for to have an only one key by dvd hl2.

Egidio.
