My Half Life 2: Episode 2 just updated...
« on: November 30, 2012, 04:52:31 pm »

Steam just downloaded an update for a several year old game randomly, consisting of 412.8 MB of data. This is a fair chunk of data. Did steam just re-install the game, or is something more going on?

Oh.... that's not a massive conspiracy at all! I figured with the portal teases sneaking in updates maybe something similair was happening here. Sad now.
