Title: The boy who stole half life 2
Post by: DonutKing on 01/03/2011, 07:41 PM
Some of you might remember back  in the day before HL2 was released, someone broke into Valve's network and stole the source code.

Now nearly 10 years on, an interview with the bloke responsible has been released:

yeah that is a cool read.. but if i remember correctly the friend he gave the copy to was fairly high up in myg0t, so once myg0t got hold of it they started going on about how they hacked valve etc etc then the FBI got involved and most of the upper management of myg0t shat bricks tried to say it had nothing to do with them.. then a lot got arrested and it was lols all round.
