I would make a review thread but it seems like reviewers just started playing, so there aren't many yet.

I sadly have to wait for my partner to install her copy first as this is her only free day, and our Canadian internet is shit. I probably won't get to play until tomorrow evening. Hope everyone enjoys launch day

If you are using steam, you can just copy all the files from your device to hers. Then let steam validate the files and you are off to the races. My spouse and I do this all the time to save of bandwidth and time.

Damn that's a good idea. I haven't installed yet, but will have her copy over to me when it's done in 4 hours lol

FYI, Steam has a new feature where you can install games over local network for friends if both enable it.

Might be handy in this case.

TO further add onto that, the Source player can't be doing anything else. As in not downloading and not playing games at the same time.
