"They become the character and consciously make choices to kill people, have sex with prostitutes, and use drugs. Some games even allow children to watch naked strippers and watch acts of sodomy and oppression. Our kids are being brainwashed and I will not stand by and allow that to happen. I...
OK....You want a new computer to play Half Life 2 and you are anxious to buy it now but part of you wants to wait for prices to drop and better hardware to come out with the same prices. Well, I say WAIT until september and here is why!
38 DAYS AGO I was curious and decided to log onto...
getting SOMETHING ie box,cd's,mauals and just driving down to the store and getting it seems to be alot easier than getting tied up in this Steam business. Besides you BUY the half life 2 game ITSELF, not just its files...ya get the whole thing, physical properties included (cd's)
couldn't agree more. The videos are just a "We need something to test this system." And what better to test it on than newer his res half life 2 videos that are quite large and still be delivered at 200 kb per sec with upwards of 100,000 people automatically downloading them. People, this is...
since both videos are said to be 800 mgbytes a piece, the upped resolution should make videos ALOT more emmersive. Besides, can't we wait a couple days or even a week for some videos while the game itself isn't coming out for another 80 days???
I've been hearing a rumor that the silver box will be a special edition of Half Life 2 with some extra goodies in it and it will be metal, that's right folks...a metal Half Life 2 box...cool huh? I know I'll buy it
yea i played the alpha leak too. It ran really jerky on my computer even though i was runnin it at 640 x 400 in a window with a geforce 5200 but thats probably just performance issues that they need to work on. I don't know why you guys are arguing...hell im gettin both games because i know...
Radiskull, wouldn't those graphics such as the head of the boy make gaming THAT much more immersive...hell it may actually lead to mistaken identities lol. Wow...you would actually think your the guy in the game
"What a mind job"
Radiskull, That picture of that boy brings me to a point.
We have the technology to do all this great stuff to video games, even creating your own ecosystem and watching it grow if you could put all the physics, wind speed, bacteria growth rate, and everything else...it would take time but...
Games in my mind are still in its developmental stages. Think about it if games now were compared with the progress of movies, games would probably be equall with the movies made in the 1950's. Point being, games still have a long way to go and were still finding out what works in games, and...
steam is sort of a download manager for valve half life products. They released a steam 2.0 beta that is free to the public but you will have to pay for half life 2 when it is available over steam
