"an email from a fan who was talking to the manager at the local GameSpot." - why not the friend of the sister of a cousin that talked to the salesclerk's brother in an unknown store in France who heard by a customer, that his brother thinks Half Life 2 could be delayed?

In the latest DX9 HL2 Demonstration, I was amazed by the sound of the wind on the rooftop. Is this scripted or is the howling and sough of the wind created dynamical based on windspeed, player position and environment? Same to some weapon sounds. The impact of the shots sounds very dynamic, too...

You know, that you call yourself sour cabbage?

you have to cheat and use tricks and workarounds in 3d engines to maintain a high framerate. If they would do a 100% realistic lighting/shadowing, the game would be unplayable slow. They have to use "cheap tricks" to creat the illusion of a realistic enviroment. And in those special cases the...

yes, when my mom got several cancer-checks a few years ago. It took the docs nearly a month to find out, it's NOT cancer. That was the longest month in my life. HL2 is very cool and important, but not the center of the world :)

don't be so naiv, this website has no secret facts, they want you to visit them and make them more popular. That's one of the oldest small-website-internet-tricks to get more visitors. Write down some cool rumours with no reliable source and generate some buzz in the fan-community.

I'm from germany and fully understand the text. It's based on a secret source (the a** of the webmaster?) and says, that Vivendi has 100000 copies of the final HL2 but it will not make it in time.... my comment: "We need more hits on our small german fanpage.... let's write some shit and call it...

and the point is?

@spitcodfry, could you ask Gabe in the name of the community what's going on? He knows you personally now and you are a bit like a spokesman for this community right now. Ask him about just a few words about "all is set" or "some things are not fixed" or "the release date could change, we...

maybe they want to make it exactly 5 years after HL1. Half Life was released 10/31/98.... so maybe we will have to wait 'till 10/31/03?

no |\/|oDdiC(_)$, you got the CHOICE to go in the portal to a fight you can't win (G-Mans words) or join his company. HL2 assumes you joined G-Man and did not refuse his offer. So G-Man is a co-worker for you in HL2.

nevermind

I would like to have a Strider Ranch. You work for the evil guys and Striders are like horses/giant ostrichs with guns :) You could even ride them and shoot from their viewpoint. You also could raise/breed new striders with advanced skills on your farm... you get money/food from killing...

I bet you wake up and get a refresh of your hl1 training. You will be told what happened during your coma period. After that you get your first mission briefing.

Modern PCs can boot from USB, CD, DVD and even LAN....

damn right *hua* *bang bang* *waaah!* :)

@Flyingdebris: Take a picture of you in your dress. If it looks very cool, I maybe get one, too. For Halloween.

my pc is 2.5 sone and hooked to a tv (and a monitor ofcourse). I can watch DVDs via PC on TV but also MOV, AVI, MPEG etc. And yes, I also have a regular DVD player :) I think a DVD player is a standard component in a modern PC these days.

they have no new informations in this radioshow, it's a waste of time.
