I LOVE the 2 pictures with teh gov't dude and the security guard dude.The before and after... wow... it's so incredibly different. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Nice!! It looks really sweet!

:shock: me want so bad i wonder if theres gonna be a firearms 2 that would be sweet

GATOR IS GOD!THANK-YOU!NOW! NOW! AND ONLY NOW AM I SAVED!FOR I HAVE A NEW GOD!HL2!

Mmmm graphics...

Mmmm graphics...

I do have to agree they really dont look that good.

well its hard to tell from the pictures. there is alot more detail in the shaping of faces, vertices. i will be upset if its not on par with doom3, but since i've been waiting for hl-2 since 1998 or so i will buy it and i will play it until my fingers bleed.

It will come and kill off FA! NOOOOOO!

I don't care about the graphics.......I think they look awesome! It's just because we been babilying over Doom3 screens for the past months that we don't see any other game's graphics as being "good"

OH MEH GAWD! I hope my system can run it. It better "push the envelope" and be better than the graphics. Unlike Unreal 2 and Tourney 2k3. 8) Nice job searchin' these out Gatormeister!Lol, these people that like got into CS 3 years after I did asked me what HL is? Lol! He said HL was a mod of CS. :roll: Good with idiots like this around it shouldn't be hard to pick this up when it comes out. IMAGINE MODS FOR HL2!!! REVOLUTIONARY JUST LIKE HL? WHO knows! ?!? !

More Half-Life 2 Rumors from Planethalflife.com :wink: More Half-Life 2 info continues to leak out, here's some of the highlights: Half-Life 2 is scheduled for a September 30th release. Yes, you're still Gordon Freeman, and yes, the story assumes you went to work for the G-Man. Half-Life 2 takes place in a European city called "City 17." Headcrabs will be back! Although some of the Xen aliens will be your friends? Barney is back. And so is Half-Life's original writer, Marc Laidlaw. While the new engine has all sorts of fancy features, it's still designed to work on lower-end machines. Apparently a 700mhz processor and a video card capable of running DX6 is enough, although a 2ghz with a GeForce4 is recommended. The girl in the promo art is named Alyx, a daughter of a scientist who factors into the story somehow. She's not playable. Scripted Sequences will be more interactive. Half-Life 3 is planned, so expect another cliffhanger ending.

:shock: :: drools ::someone make a drool emoticon!

HL 2 fo GeForce Card User only not any other graphic card due to ultra relistic n human-alike Technologic and HL is the MOST HUMAN-ALIKE GAME OF ALL-TIME *wink wink

Am I the only one who bought HL just to install FA and CS? I didn't even play it once. Hell I didn't even run it until I installed FA and CS. I wonder what it looks like.

D00d play HL now.

there's a reason why it's called "The Best Game of all Time" and it's not for the mods

"What's funny and very ironic given some of the idiotic and baseless rumors of a certain website is that Half-Life 2 will be shown at the ATI graphics booth during"

I guess part of the quote is missing, oh well, didn't notice.Anyway, do you understand how impossibly STUPID of them it would be to make the game only for nvidia ? I mean, they'd lose half if not more people who could play them game. It's more likely that there may be specialness that can happen if you have the nvidia card which I think is a deal nvidia had with some other game people to make the game run best for their cards.

it should be for all cards...Valve should work with both ATI and Nvidia...I have a gforce2 and if they make me change my card just to play hl2...I'd be pissed

Sweet... another x-files ending! :twisted: only expansion for HL that didnt have kind of a weird (but very cool) make you think ending was blue-shift, which sucked anyway and i beat in about half an hour.For those of you who bought HL simply for mods, you must play the single player episodes. Right now....WHY ARE YOU STILL READING THIS? GO PLAY!!!

geforce is nvidia.

From what I've HEARD, Doom3 was optimized for ATI cards. :roll: Ha ha ha... it was very funny hearing this, because this was before the Readon 9000 series (the brand-ie new ones) and ATI's sucked.

doom3 is simply optimized for the best graphics card out at the moment, currently its ati's. as for the ppl who bought half life for the mods... just play it. i have played through halflife and the expansions at least 15 times, all the way through. i was hooked from the very first moment i installed it. how are you supposed to demand more from your video games if ya never played one of the greatest ever made? its definately worth the time to play through it at least once.

Half Life was awesome.Until you got to the room filled with teleporters, at that point the game went completely downhill.But even so, it's an amazingly awesome wicked super game.
