Game servers
Is it possible to use my hosting account to run a game server?
I have my own nameserver and static ip..
I have had a good look on google but still no luck on how to do it!

Sounds like you need to find a GSP, there's no need to get a dedicated server, you can get a standard HALO game server from numerous companies.

Take a look through them search results, alternately you can post a request in the "Request for products or services" forum, you may get a few companies offer there services to you then. (they can't in this thread because of the rules).

yeah, that's true. Being a delta force: BHD player i kept on trying to do that too :P
supposedly the target audience of CS:S don't bother leaning which is why they took it out :S
