    HL2 loses to Halo 2 via Steam

    I really don't care about the award, but Halo2's singleplayer was "meh" at best. Uninspiring levels, and incredibly lackluster ending ("that was the end?!") just don't do it for m.

    Doom 3 expansion... shamelessly rips off HL2.

    I'm a bit confused about why you linked a grappling hook mod for quake 2 (ignoring the ones for quake 1) that lets you move around the level structure in a thread about interacting with physics objects.

    Is traptown downloadable?

    [SMACK!] Not acceptable here.

    Anyone else have this weird font problem?

    This is caused by having a font named halflife2 (or something like that). Rename or remove the font.

    is there a way to play HL2 in opengl?

    The source engine uses only Direct X rendering. Open GL rendering is not included in the engine.

    Has anybody been playin with a 64-bit AMD?

    if you don't want to SLI, save some money and don't get an SLI board. A base nforce4 is around $50 while and SLI board is around $200.

    There goes hope of a GOTY at Gamespot...

    Do we care? I don't need gamespot or any else validating my fun. :P BTW, if you don't mind a lot of cussing, you should also give Chronicles of Riddick a shot. Fun game.

    An excellent article about Doom and Hl2

    For good old-fashioned run-n-gun, nothing holds a candle to Serious Sam. (Cheap too. If you haven't played it, get it. Get both.) Painkiller was nowhere near as over-the-top. Doom3 was ok if you turned the gamma up to the point you could somewhat see, and the end levels were much better...

    System Setup question... What would you do?

    The amount of memory on the graphics card (128) is less important then the chipset on the card. Is it an 8500? To speed up your loading times, you should probably defrag your hard drive. Your memory is sufficient for your processor, but a CPU upgrade might help. Also, you have to ask...

    Doug From Valve Response To "StutterBug" At Steam Forums

    A lot of people have their settings too high for their CPU too. Guess what--sound takes CPU time. Easiest stuttering fix, turn everything way down and then increase until it comes back.

    HL2 aliens and halo's flood?

    And before movies, there were these things called books.

    Changing dxsupport.cfg

    You should copy the original file before editting. You may be sorry later otherwise. (Although I suppose with steam, you could just delete it and get the original back?)

    Half-Life 3: Voice Recognition Software?

    since perfect voice recognition software doesn't exist, I think it's extremely safe to steal a quote and say "MYTH BUSTED".

    Loading is tickin me off...

    It autosaves after loading so you get a second of lag. Just don't rush into a fight for a second.

    Wide Screen made Half Life weird...

    OK Chris_D. Fess up. What's powering that thing?! (And why are your speakers on their sides instead of standing behind / beside the monitors?!)

    I think I just found something out!

    You're close. There are no kids because the supression field has been in place for some time. Won't matter anyway since the combine is changing the earth's atmosphere to be suitable for them (and lethal to us). EDIT: The "Raising the Bar" book talks about this a bit.

    AI Video

    At least I didn't see HL2 NPCs running in place against an invisible barrier like I did in Far Cry. I think you people are expecting something from the AI far more incredible then is possible with today's technology.

    The most deadly Half-Life enemy?

    AKA Gonarch Why randomly throw in AKA? /Votes buried tentacle monster from HL1 since even a garg goes down to regular weapons. /Thinks there should be a "HL1 helicopter" option too.
