Why did they wait until a week before the release? Someone tell me this. You know what, I bet Nvidia has something to do with this. After they saw how poorly their cards did in the test, they pretty much said "take as much money and time as you want, just make our cards look good". Ok, that...

That's last month's issue. The November issue is out already. I got mine the other day. No new hl2 info, except for the release date. Which they now have at Nov 19th. *sigh*

I don't know about you guys, but Steam is flying today. I am downloading at about 750kbs average. It looks like they are really doing some upgrading on Steam. Very nice. :)

Ok, here is the Gamespot link: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/halflife2/news_6075080.html At the bottom of the page it says this: [i]

Actually Gamespot said that. Hold on, I will find the link

Yeah, I got mine yesterday. I noticed that as well. I don't know how accurate they are with their dates, I think that they just pull their info from games sites, like EB and Gamestop though.

That's the 50 million dollar question.

That makes perfect sense. I mean, can you see Vavle announcing that the game is going to be delayed until November or even 2004 less than one week before the game is scheduled to be released. That is one of the only things that keeps my hopes up at this point. I think if Valve knew the game...

I don't know about that, but in some of the videos it looks like Gordon is 'zooming in' without a weapon in his hand. Like in the Kleiner's lab video, when Alyx is talking it appears that your view zooms in on her. Now, there are no cutscenes in HL2, so was this just done for effect or is...

Ok, here's my theory, it's a bit elaborate: Half-life2 is done, it's been done for a while. The guys are only playtesting to make sure it is the best thing to come to the PC in a long time, maybe ever. They have deliberately been keeping quiet about the gold announcement. There is going to...

Is the manipulator going to be in the game? I am talking about the one from the tech demo. The tractor-beam one. I really hope that is in the game. The grabber weapon is cool, but it looks like it only grabs-then-shoots. I want to pick something up, hold it there then drop it. Or, pick...

If I know for sure what day it will be in the stores before the end of this week, I will just take a vacation day and let my boss know ahead of time. If I don't, oh well. I have a good sick voice that comes in handy when I need it to. :cheese:

Thanks for the link, haven't read that in a long time. A lot of cool details in that article.

That sounds very cool. I hope somone does something like this. Just playing around with the physics and whatnot are one of the major draws for me.

I am definitely ditching work to get the game and play it. I am always looking for a reason to call in sick.

Definitely the physics for me as well. The game looks to great as a whole, but I just love playing games that simulate real-life physics. It just takes the game to a whole other level. Oh and the MODS too. I can't wait to see what some people are going to do with this engine. Hell, I...

That's what I wanted to hear. 35 hours. That is huge! :cheers:

Is there any indication on approximately how long the single-player portion of Half-Life 2 will be? Longer or shorter than Half-Life 1? I did a forum search and couldn't find any conclusive answers.

Well, at the very least you will have a lot of time to take screenshots.
