    Hmm.. HalfLife 2, drivable vehicles, firefights with 50 story Stryders and Big mofu Antlions... nah, no quick moving in this game :D

    more.. gold speculation

    If HL2 is delayed now this close to expected release I will definately be looking elsewhere to get my copy of the game as I would no longer want to support Valve :) J/K.. I love Valve, although a few announcements and screenshots would be nice to see soooon!!!

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    Quotidian it sounds like you may have to much stuff running in the background, or maybe you have AA or AF turned on during the tests.. Sometimes I noticed that the catalyst drivers don't turn off AA and AF when you do it manually til after your computer reboots or you try it again. And I am...

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    Exactly my point.. a score of over 6000 in 3dmarks 2003 is what you should expect nscownzme with your rig... I just ran the test at 2.2 ghz and scored 36770 , so from 1.84 to 2.2 i jumped 12,000 aqua scores.. whatever. I imagine if you have a 3ghz you would score over 45000 as this...

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    Umm.. it is a piece of crap.. I know alot about computers, and build them in my spare time.. I ran the benchmark, got something like 25000 .. did a couple tweaks and got 30000... nothing major... I did the same thing with 3dmarks 2003 and barely noticed a difference and it would be what I...

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    Because the benchmark is a piece of crap nsxownzme.. don't worry, your computer is good... Run 3dmarks 2003 and then tell your scores and if they are lower then 5000 then there might be a problem :)

    appears the '2 week' rule is not valid

    Arghhh with all this Gone Gold crap it bothers me to even post in here... Why would they announce it has gone gold when they already told everyone it was going to be out Sept 30th? We know this to be true, so maybe they just teasing us with not telling anyone that it's gold.. Heck, it...

    Ultimate (fake) HL2 interview

    if Steam detects you cheating, it makes your printer spit out sheet after sheet of very obviously counterfeit 100$ bills So you mean the ones that are coming out of my printer now aren't real? :) Funny Stuff Apos!

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    I can't believe people are still rambling on about this benchmark... it's not a good benchmark at all and shouldn't be considered a test of your computers graphical power.. Shesh... anyone with over 30000 has got to be thinking it's awesome while people with sub 20000 scores will perform just...

    Will HL2 get perfect reviews?

    Umm.. I know that.. but there is a huge difference between most min requirement specs and recommend specs... A min Requirement allows you to play the game, but not as good as the recommended specs which most gamers will actually enjoy the experience. MIN REQ - 32 meg Gfx card, 800 mhz cpu...

    Half Life 2, 9800XT to be launched at Alcatraz Sept 30th

    Umm.. first off .. who the hell is the Inquirer and what makes them so trustworthy as to what is happening with HL2 and ATI's next cards? Secondly, this sentence don't make much sense... "all Radeon 9800XT cards will be shipped with this card and this is likely to cost ATI some serious...

    Will HL2 get perfect reviews?

    Honestly doubt HL 2 will get 100%.. First of all they will say that the game chugs on anything less then a Radeon 9700pro 2ghz system causing all this hype about catering to the lower end systems a bunch of hogwash. Secondly, the game will have some issues no doubt as all do, such as...

    Manipulate Alyx T&A?

    And the maturity level in these forums drops another 3 notches putting it into the negative yet again.

    Two good reasons to assume HL2 is delayed

    Why isn't this thread closed yet? The next time someone mentions the game being delayed I am going flame the mods til I get banned so I don't have to read all these stupid delay threads and join a forum with more mature and respectable HL2 fans.

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    Dont take it to heart Dalys .. the benchmark sucks and should not be considered a true test of the capabilities of your Gfx card as it is too unpredictable. 3dmarks2003 is still the benchmark of choice in my books as it is a much better DX9 benchmarking tool...

    Halo has GONE GOLD and gues the release date?

    I am not going to buy it unless the multiplayer is extremely fun... I will rent it though, and play the singleplayer portion and try out the mp but I can almost guarantee it won't be as fun as games like BF1942 unless they reinstate the Coop mode that was hugely popular in the xbox version...

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    Another wierd thing just happened.. Considering this benchmark was the last thing to run in d3d, I can only blame it as before I ran the benchmark everything was fine. I was playing BF1942 and quit and came on here and saw this benchmark, downloaded it and ran it with crap scores. Commented...

    Aquamark3 The Reality Benchmark

    This benchmark is crap.. 3dmarks 2003 scores are almost identical for my setup with others.. I have a Barton 2500+ with Radeon 9700 and get score of 25000, and yet some others here with similar setup get scores of 30000 or better.. wtf?

    Halo has GONE GOLD and gues the release date?

    Are you kidding me? Half Life 2 will crush Halo like an ant(lion)! Seriously don't care much for the PC version of Halo since I played it on the Xbox already. And considering they are omitting Coop play (for reasons beyond belief since it took them long enough to port the damn game that should...
