We know you can't get enough of Episode Two, so here is a new 6 minutes gameplay video with never seen before footage.[br]
Check out the new video on GameTrailers.com (Spoilers).
 
Yeah epic spoilers. :( Still looked great though. Also a big LOLZ for a 2 day late release for retail on the Europeans! :D Bioshock and now this. Come to America, its safer here...kinda.
 
That was pretty damn epic. It doesn't spoil anything in relation to the plot, either.

Yeah lol
 
If that was the breen adviser, then it only means one thing!


Breen wanted to suck off Gordon!
 
Wow those cinematic physics are pretty ****ing amazing.
 
I like it, the encounter was amazing, and new features such as shadows and cinematic physics look great(I just hope my 6200 can render them half-decently :LOL:), but I don't like the new blood effects. They look kind of primitive and cartoony to me. HL2's normal blood not only looks better IMO but makes more sense considering we're fighting enemies covered in armor and thick clothing.
 
Fortunately I was able to close it out right after I saw the
advisor
I don't want to spoil Ep2 before I play it. If you're trying to not see any Ep2 spoilers I wouldn't recommend watching the video
 
I just dont get why they would hide an advisor in a warehouse like that in the mid of nowhere..

I agree, seeing a shower of puff blood every time he shot someone seemed like a pretty obvious step back. Other than that: sweet video.
 
EP2 has been Delayed by one day! (It was the 9th but according to the vid its the 10th)
LOL. Lucky Canadians and Americans and those buying on steam that live in the Pacific time zone get it 1 minutes after Midnight.
 
oh well, that sack in a sock of an advisor deserves it.. too bad he is still alive.

and I agree, alot of games nowadays seem to be having this thick particle system for blood, like bioshock, ue3 and all..
 
Didn't like the new blood effects. A load of blood spurts out from the body in a blatent manner, but then disapears completly. What's the point in emphasizing a large amount of blood if seconds later it's not going to be there?

Loved the rest, though.
 
Anyone notice the new combine patch? Its the Combine Symbol with a Orange background.
 
Wow, you weren't kidding when you said "spoilers".
 
He was playing the 360 version (Achievements!) with a 360 controller (Poor aiming) on a PC.

The reason it's the length it is is because the Hunter was probabaly supposed to take longer to take down, for now it just died right away and they calcelled it.

Uhh if it was the 360 version, why did it have the PC menu? How did you know he was using a 360 Controller?

Also if you watch the videos, the weapons hints (Mouse 1 does this, Mouse 2 does this, ect. It says "Mouse one" instead of like "Right trigger")
 
oh my god, i just hop this is not 5 hours long, :D

It could very well be the 360 menu as well.

As for the 360 controller... his view stays completely still while not moving it. And the hints could have been changed for the demonstration, it actually looks more like a console games with the tips of what each button does in-game.

So does my view.

But all the weapon hints have PC controls on them. Watch when he switches to a new weapon.
 
I've not played episode one. Should I watch this? I.e. will it spoil lots of things for me?
 
I don't see why you would want to watch any EP2 content if you haven't played EP1.
 
Hmmm, a new combine soldier model for HL2DM, suhweet.

The requirements are slightly higher, the minimum ammount of ram is 512 now... and that's what I have :hmph:

****ign
 
Thats so great! Fantastic scene :O
Can't wait to play that scene on my 20" wide screen monitor and full blasting sound
 
To end the Xbox vs PC discussion over here:
since when does xbox have Windows? :p
 
przmek is right. why the f**k are you guys arguing about this? hes obviously playing the pc version.
