    Team Fortress = HL2 Multiplayer

    We all wish TF2 were the multiplayer component. But it isn't. If they do spring this special surprise on us, I believe the world would be thrown off it's axis by all the jaws dropping to the floor at once. :P

    Halo 2 vs. Half Life 2

    I dont really know if it's possible to make a game that uses no OLD gameplay elements. Developers now are always using something from the olden days, let it be run and gun shooting to the SPECIAL system that some RPGs use. It'll be a while before someone thinks up an entirely original game...

    November 16 the best way to get the game pirated.

    Piracy happens no matter what. We can't do anything, companies try to do things but ultimately fail. The date has nothing to do with the game being pirated. Guarenteed.

    Nov 16, bah

    Posts like this ? A ton. It's been hashed over and over again. Half-Life more than likely won't be competing head to head with these games since they appeal to two seperate gaming communities. But if it does? Vivendi, Valve, Rockstar, Bungi, Microsoft... all of them are going to make a...

    What you expect to come back during the course of HL2

    I'm hoping for plot twists. I'm hoping to actually feel for the other characters in the game instead of just capping them in the head and moving on. I hope for an emotional ride like HL1 was. I felt confused when I felt they meant for me to be confused, I was angry when they meant for me to...

    Original HL development info / screenies?

    Shadows used to be enabled by using the command "r_shadows 1" in console. Not sure about now. They were pretty crappy anyways, they were just another "model" that was attached to the feet of the actual model. Strange how they did it. I remember way back in the day seeing screenshots in PC...

    release date of 11/16/04 is a bad idea.

    haha that link was funny. Good job whoever made it. :D

    *clicking exclamation point next to this thread* And now I feel I've done my duty as a forum goer.

    Question about half-life: source

    I believe the only retail package that will include HL1: Source is the Collectors Edition. I could very well be incorrect though. I don't believe Valve has wholly released anything about DoD: S or HL1: S other than the fact they exist, and will be available to both Silver and Gold packages...

    Halo 2 vs. Half Life 2

    uhhh... I don't even know how to reply to that. Here's a monkey instead. :monkee:

    Steam content servers all wobly and stuff

    I'm guessing the first CS: S patch will come along with HL2 on Nov 16. But then again, that's A TON of stress on Steam. So who knows. btw, Gorgeous, I like your avatar. ;)

    Halo 2 vs. Half Life 2

    Yeah, CS:S is a good time. My buddies and I still whip out the old UT2004 and original UT sometimes though. Can't beat either for just straight up DM. Oh, and we do play Halo (PC ver) at LANs as well. ;)

    release date of 11/16/04 is a bad idea.

    WoW will come out soon, I played the beta, that game is more finished than most MMO's are when they're released. EQ2 wont make it's scheduled date. They havent even started stress testing yet, and that game will NEED a stress test. It's always rough releasing games at this time of the...

    Halo 2 vs. Half Life 2

    Warbie you should play some UT2004 for some old school shooter action. :) It's so fun.

    Just replayed Half-Life 1! w00t!

    Yeah, I'm waiting for HL1: S as well to play through again. Hopefully it comes a couple days before HL2... so then I'll have it beaten by the time Nov 16th. rolls around. Wishful thinking. :thumbs:

    To much personal mess

    What else is there to talk about? I mean, there's no more hypothesizing on when HL2 will be released, and this thread is no better than those you're complaining against. I like the nostalgia that the "I just finished HL1! W00t!" posts bring back personally. It's like living the first...

    How Much Copies of HL2 will be sold ... ?

    How many? I dont know. I'd venture a guess at more than Doom 3, less than the Sims 2.

    Wich was more challenging?

    Halo was certainly more difficult, Half-Life was most definitely more interesting. Which was better? Half-Life in my opinion. Then again, we ARE on a forum hosted by HALFLIFE2.net... eh em.

    Halo 2 vs. Half Life 2

    Halo was a good game in its own right. Amazing for console gamers, pretty good for PC gaming. The control seemed fluid enough for me to get past that first "OMG, I'm not using a keyboard and mouse... what do I DO?!" couple of hours I played it. It was nothing revolutionary in the way of PC...
