Title: Lmao!

Maybe it belongs on the Fun ForumTM, maybe not.

Does anyone else see something wrong with this?

haha that's great.  There's a store here (Electronics Boutique) that has the label of D2 and LoD displayed on used games.  I wrote them down, haven't tried yet, though.

When I first got on bnet (about 2 years ago with Warcraft II) they still put the label on the outside at KMart, I wish I had written them down and stuff since they don't do it anymore. :(

Damn you people, stealing my secrets.  I often search ebay for used games with pictures to try to harvest the keys.  I actually found a Diablo 2 one much more obvious than that one, if you can believe it.  Half-Life can give you pretty good results too.

Half-life is better too, you can just register the key with steam and it's yours always.

Did you attempt to do what K said?

Half-Life is like $5.  Seriously.  And you get the mods (yes, that includes Counter-Strike) for free.  IMHO, the cheap price of $5 is well worth the hassle of begging and searching for hours, days, weeks, or more.  Have you thought of this, or do you disagree with me?

Here's the only legible half-life related one I could find: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8101734715&rd=1 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8101734715&rd=1)

If you can't read the CD-Key why don't you make the image in paint (On WinXP) and use WinXP's little image organizer thingy majig and just zoom in on the CD-Key?

Edit -> CD-Key: XYB2-FABG-JAL2-JEFG-5238 (the last number may be a '6' or '0')

Zooming in generally causes image quality, especially in text, to degrade sharply.

I never even registered my cd key w/ steam. When it was released, the cd key authentication wasnt working. To test it out I installed steam on a friends computer who never had half-life installed and he is still able to log on to this date.

Got the job done though didn't it?

If you have Opera then zooming is built in.  :-*

You have to get a little extension to do that with firefox. T-T

I've never noticed that some people are that stupid, and I've been using ebay for quite awhile now. That is pretty funny.
