Yup I am aware of the expansion, but I didnt play the game with my copy, I played it at my friends house who bootleg it. I still have to buy parts for my computer. Does anyone know a good video card to run HL2 that cost around $90 thats a 256mb and directx9.

For any graphics cards except the newest ones (pci express versions) you should go with ATI cards. They were better and Nvidia has ionly recently started making better cards than them. I would suggest just going to newegg.com and search for one within your price range

Half-Life 2 is cool, can't wait for the XBox-version.
