Hey everyone,
In case you have not yet had a chance to see some of the screenshots concerning Half Life 2, Gamespot has a good collection of them:

The game looks really nice. It definitely beats Tactical Ops based on the UT1 engine :D

Cheers!

I've seen the video preview on the game not too long ago, and byfar, it looks just breath-taking! I've never seen the screenshots, thanks a lot kirupa!

I was browsing through Gamespot earlier today, and this is the first time I saw the screenshots also. The only screenshots I had seen earlier were developers' previews of nvidia/ati demos from various gaming conferences :)

*And I thought that the HL2 source code being leaked would destroy gaming as I knew it hehe.

[Yeldarb]

Is there a HL2 demo out yet? These screenshots look amazing :) I can't wait to play :D

[andr.in]

these some nice screens there... I tihnk I need a new computer for that though :P

[grinch]

Oh man,
you have to see the video, if you think those screenshots are amazing!
I hear that your comp wont have to be that powerful to run it, like I'm guessing at least 128 RAM and about 1.7 GHZ. As for teh card, I have a NVIDIA Geforce 4 MX440, and Doom 3 looks amazing on my computer... *whoops!* :whistle:

When is this game coming out? I couldn't find a release date for it?

[EZEkiel]

half life to is going to own !!!! the movies that i have seen are absolutley amazing !!!

i heard something about the source code and it not being real or something but eh i didn't pay any attention (as per usual)

:panda:E!kO:panda:

anyone know what they are trying to accomplish with the DirectX 8.1 to DirectX 9 shaders comparison? I think 8.1 actually looks better. A lot of whats under the water seems too bright in 9.

Good graphics, but the graphics were amazing when the game was SUPPOSED to be released (September.)

Now, many soon-to-be released games have greatly bypassed the haflife 2 graphics.

[mlk]

such as ?

[CoDe-ReD]

Doom 3, Painkiller, Far Cry...

[thoriphes]

eh, painkiller didn't look that great. and far cry was up to par with halflife 2 i guess.

as for doom3, i think that's the new bar set for graphics these days.

and grinch, it may have looked good on your computer, but how many frames did it run at? ;) 2-3 maybe?
