To all HL2 fanboys, have you even seen or played FarCry (and it's realistic water rendition, complete with reflection)?

I saw the E3 videos of H2's water rendition and compared to Far Cry's CryTek engine, it looks very primitive. CryTek beats the sh*t out of HL2 engine... Yeah bring it on friggin fan-boys...FLAME WAR.

The vidoe clips from E3 are amazing. So you DO get an option to choose between the two API in the game? That is cool.

Well, I know we have Prescotts and HyperThreading and many 'new'er advancements, but here are my system specs: Pentium®4 2.8 GHz (533MHz FSB) Abit IT7-MAX2 Mushkin DDR 2700 [1GB Total] ATi RADEON™ 9800 XT [256MB] Maxtor 120GB 7200RPM (8MB Cache) HDDs (X2 - 240GB Total) Sound Blaster...

Does this game utilizes OpenGL or Direct3D? What about the E3 demo? What it shown using OpenGL or Direct3D? The reason being that it looke amazing on a RADEON 9600/9800XT. Thanks in advance.

Lighting and real-time shadows ARE part of the game engine (read: technology).

The real physics, realy time shadows, etc. They are there... FictiousWill you fit exactly to the type of id and Valve praisers that I mentioned earlier.

What I am trying to say is that the wait for seeing the kinds of Doom3 and HL2 is OVER: You can pretty much get a very good feel of them by playing the likes of Painkillers and FarCrys. I don't care about the story or mood of Doom3 or HL2.

Painkiller and FarCry are two examples. These two games have pretty much EVERYTHING that Doom3 and HL2 have and maybe even more. Sure, DOOM3 and HLF2 might look nicer, or play better, but the technology that used to sell id's and Valve engine are being developed by very talented developers...

They realize that the game is not going to be ready this year, make up the greatest joke in the gaming history about their source code being stolen and then act as if everything is OK. It if was not for the support of the community they wouldn't be where they are today...A typical id style "When...

http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=12330 "For our customers who purchase RADEON products that come bundled with Half-Life 2 and activate their Half-Life 2 Product Key via STEAM before Half-Life 2 is available at retail, Valve and ATI are offering the Valve Premier Pack free, which includes...

I bet you can achive this frame rate on a 320x240 resolution on a next gen ATi or nVIDIA cards (i.e. post R360 and NV40!) :)

What does it mean? "October 22, 2003 - At a recent NVIDIA Editors' Day, id Software CEO Todd Hollenshed announced that DOOM 3 will be capped to 60 frames per second in the rendering engine. We checked with John Carmack himself about why DOOM 3 will be hard-capped at 60fps in the renderer...

FPS...Too bad UT2K4 is not a DX9 game...

None of them are my kind of games... :(

Now that there is no HL2 and DOOM III, what should I play this year? UT2K4? This is a sad period in gaming history...:(

Can you guys provide another link? I have been on a look out for this video feed, since last week with no luck. http://www.ati.com/gitg/promotions/launch/index.html

Where can I directly download it?

If my postes insults your 'intelligence' why do you even bother replying? You guys are so immature...I am out of these forums. I bet you are the same ones who cried when the game was delayed...GROW UP.

I have two 120GB Maxtor HDD's (C:\Windows XP Pro and D:\Games) and I would like to know if all the stuff that I have installed on the C:\ drive (plus some games on D:\Games) would affect the performance of Half Life 2 playablity. I mean I would love to install this game on a 'fresh' and...
