It's not an achievement, but this is pretty rare
I don't meet many people like you anymore.
damn, y'all, how big were the dinos back then ?
Big enough to screw up the platters on my hard drive when they stomped by!
You had to walk into the computer to catch the bugs.
Oh hey
'cause we're dying of old age? :P
Wait for me!!

Shit, 17 days apart lol. Did you also get a copy of Half-Life 2 for Christmas?
I think I bought the Orange Box? Or HL2 for myself.
Had to look it up, you got Steam 4 days after it went live!
I'm just 4 days after you. What's up, fellow old person?
I only have 16 years, Finally I feel young again!
Slowness to adopt new technologies is a sign of old age ๐
Get off my lawn, damn whipper snappers!
Or that we were children with gameboys
I was very anti steam when it first came around and only got an account once CS forced me to to continue to play. My join date is the beginning of 05 so you must have been a super early adopter!
Ha, this is almost my story too. Hadn't played CS prior though, I got enticed in by CS:S and bought Half Life 2 and Steam just for that.
I started out on CS 1.3 and Day of Defeat, I played source a lot too but then after that lost a lot of interest in it. I tried playing CS: Go for a while but it was never the same as those early days in LAN cafes and on shitty slow internet :D
Hello, fellow eldritch being!
Fellow 22 checking in.
You guys were just a few days too late... I remember wanting to stay up to make my account, but I had school the next morning so I did it when I woke up
This was my senior year of college. I would stay up all night playing Counterstrike and Day of Defeat.
Funny to see so many other people all starting at the same time.
It's right around the time steam went live to the world
Hell yeah, brother
adjusts glasses and knees pop
Are my eyes deceiving me or is that a 4 digit account?
Mine was a 5 digit the evening of release, gotta be pretty early to get a 4 digit
Can't figure out how to post an image, but I have you beat by less than 24 hours! (September 15th, 2003)
And I thought my 17 years were long xD
