At one time I had heard that the Source engine was being designed to stay at a constant framerate, and that the engine would dynamically change to acheive playable framerates. Anyone know if this is still the case?

I wouldn't expect any hardware sites to give you that kind of info. They only care about how different video cards compare, and care little about how playable a game is going to be with specific hardware. Hopefully valve releases the benchmark to the public so that these sorts of issues can be...

Errr, I think I understand what your saying. The benchmark those sites used was the one at ATI's shader event. It was 3 maps from HL2 that we have already seen in the E3 videos.

Ummm what?

Oh, the Dx9 techdemo

Alehm, which benchmark vid u talking about?

Gamershell already said it was a fake....

Looks like the map is delayed. How could you do this to us Adam?! First HL2, now this! Why must you torture me so?! EDIT: Wait, he said 1:30 PM.........thats another 12 hours..........

Gamespot is also covering the crazyness

Yeah, I gotta say I am sadly antisipating your new map. Man i need another game to distract me

I know, shoo! That kinda makes me think that there won't be anything new for HL2

Well, its actually 2:30pm in tokyo, and no, I don't know where my HL2 is

Gamespy is also there. They got 3 ppl there, so I would expect them to get decent coverage if anything big is released. This ain't no ATI event.....

I'm wondering the same thing...

True, but microsoft makes the bulk of the money from the sales

Halo is one game I will never buy....Not after what microsoft did to PC gamers. To put it into perspective, what microsoft did would be like them buying valve right now, delaying Half-life 2 another year to put it exclusively on the XBOX, then wait another 2 years or so to bring it back to PC.

Nice, so now we just gotta wait to see if any other major sites confirm the email.

Hey, how bout we send good ole' Spit to investigate again?

I was just thinking that, these major newssites wouldn't want to be posting the email headers and stuff anyway. Doing so would make it much easier for people to fake emails like this...

Evidence For valid email: Shacknews says its valid Multiple sites acknowledge email Evidence saying fake: No email header posted No email screenshot Emailed at 9PM PST, a little late Emailed by Doug, maybe not the person who who make this kind of announcment
