i wonder if this wont be implemented until the new cat drivers are out. i activated my black box the other night with steam, got day of defeat right then but no indication of the upcoming games and no indication the ones in this post, lost cost or death match. i do not own hl2 so could that be why? can any ati owners confirm that they have these games showing in their stem account as purchased or available?

Right now downloading HL2: DM on my main PC. Instead of quickly swapping my nVidia card for my old ATi one I just burrowed my brother's Macbook and got the games through it. Weeeee free gaming!

Well, for me it appeared after clicking the button in the offer page. It just started steam, updated some stuff and then just told me it would add them to my account (this was after installing Steam on my brother's machine and logging onto my account). Then I just came back to my PC and there they were and here I go.

Unfortunately, I get a purchase error every time, and Steam support said this isn't working on 64-bit systems. :(
