Every since I upgraded, my Aquamark03 score dropped 1000 points and my 3Dmark03 tests stop suddenly with "Out of Focus" errors.
Anyone else getting these problems?
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro ....here
The stolen demo ONLY has a Direct3D mode - people have tested it using the "Show D3D Logo during Direct 3D games". They ran the game in "OpenGL" mode and the Direct3D logo was at the bottom of the screen.
...or even more important - does anyone care?
I certainly don't.
Shacknews supposedly got an e-mail directly from Gabe saying a Gold announcement was due TODAY. Maybe we'll get another, more important, Half Life 2 update?
I want Valve to come out and tell us just 2 things:
1) the current status of HalfLife 2 development
2) when they plan on shipping the game
That's all I want to know. I don't care about anon, Gabe, Doug, the theft, lawsuits, security, AI scripting, Vivendi, wisecracks about Fragmaster...
It would be nice if Valve would TELL us what the f-ck will happen. They've had plenty of time to access their situation and come up with a preliminary plan atleast.
A Vivendi rep coming out so soon after the theft was discovered and saying the game is pushed back to April 2004, and then a...
LOL
Valve could come out today and say "Yes, we totally lied about the scripted sequences in Traptown. We know you suckers will buy anything we say, so we made it up" and everyone here will still buy the game the first day it comes out.
No point in bashing a game you KNOW you will buy no...
I could care less if it's scripted or not, honestly. It looks great either way and I'm still buying the game - as will every single person here bitching about it.
I going to throw this in here.
I haven't see nthe video in a while, so I may be mistaken...
When he walks into the room/shed and closes the door, as far as I recall there was only 1 guard persuing him. The guard walks over to the window and fires in through the window. BUT I could have...

Well shit, for $8000 you should wait for the new Pentium 4 Exteme PCs, with PCI Express. Half Life 2 won't be out for another 6 months, so wait for the Pentium 4 Extreme PCs.
Here is my system if you need a good idea.
It's not the top-o-the-line, but it'll run any game, inlcuding Half Life2, at full details with great FPS:
Athlon XP 3000/333 (2.18 ghz)
1 Gigabyte PC2700 DDR-Ram
Ati Radeon 9700 Pro (Catalyst 3.8 Drivers)
MSI KT4V-L MotherBoard, (1.9 BIOS) -...
The GeForce FX series SUCKS.
If Half Life 2 will be your primary game for the next year or so, I suggest:
ATI RADEON -OR- ATI ALL IN WONDER
9500 Pro, 9600 Pro, 9600 XT, 9700 Pro, 9800 Pro, 9800XT
- ALL of these cards will be optimal for Half Life 2. Make sure if you do get one, you...
