    Dynamic lighting?

    I honestly couldn't tell you. All I know is that shadows react to the direction and intensity of the light source, but it's not full dynamic shadows like Doom 3.

    Dynamic lighting?

    Interestingly enough, Bloodlines, which is built on the Source engine, does feature dynamic shadows. Run past a light, and your character's shadow will arc around as expected, so obviously the Source engine can do the kind of lighting effects everybody is talking about, though Valve simply...

    Half life 2 boring?

    Half-Life 2 is the the best game I've ever played. Not a dull moment to be found. This is an excellent point. I'll play games now and expect objects to react to my presence, and it can be a bit jarring when I realize that an office chair is inexplicably bolted to the ground.

    De_Courthouse_Final Released

    Looks a little plain. Needs more detail to really make the environment come alive.

    Half-Life 1: Source

    Valve's "crappy conversion" was, in fact, a straight port to the Source engine done to test the Source engine's ability to import Half-Life 1 content, so there really wasn't much "converting" going on. Personally, I like the retro feel, but I'm also looking forward to some of the conversion...

    Duke Nukem 3D Mod CANCELLED

    It's just a pet peeve of mine.

    Duke Nukem 3D Mod CANCELLED

    They do not have the right to distribute the IP in any way, shape, or form. Whether or not they charge for their work is irrelevant.

    Duke Nukem 3D Mod CANCELLED

    The guys running the mod were idiots with no knowledge of or respect for copyright law or intellectual property rights. If there were ever a mod that deserved getting shut down, it was this one.

    Counter-Strike: Source Update Released

    Now if only they could bring Condition Zero's single player goal based gameplay to Counter Strike: Source...

    Battletech: Mobile Infantry Update

    Great. Another mod that'll never see the light of day because it's based on copyrighted intellectual property

    Counter-Strike: Source Update Released

    Same here. Odd.

    Jedi: Timeline Update

    That would be incorrect.

    [release] HL2: Friendly Fire 0.2

    No doubt. I was quite surprised at the number of people upset that you couldn't kill friendlies!

    Heart of the Revolters Released

    Those second two screenies looks great. Who says the Source engine can't do "dark and atmospheric"? Doom 3, eat your heart out!

    When was half life 2 oficially announced?

    Damn, you kids are lazy these days. When I was in school, we didn't have the internet. You wanted to know something, you went to the library and looked it up in the card catalog! Then you had to actually read a lot of material before finding something relevant. It's called "research". And...

    How did you like the boat and buggy steering?

    It's our opinion. Incorrect. It doesn't "have" to be anything since that's just your opinion. Captain Obvious to the rescue! Automatic centering is an absolute necessity for driving games using binary controls (that is, controls that are "on" or "off", like the buttons on your keyboard)...

    When was half life 2 oficially announced?

    Come on, make the guy do his own homework.

    How did you like the boat and buggy steering?

    I thought the vehicle controls were spot on. Not quite as good as Unreal Tournament 2004 but much better than Far Cry.

    Half Life 2 ENDING!!!!!!

    Personally, I loved the ending. Had a very 2001 vibe to it (2001: A Space Odyessy being one of my all-time favorite films).
