Half-Life 2 Trailer

hehehe anymous i dont know were from ( i think afganistan or something ) but it is sOn (with a o not a u ) of a ***** you crack head!

The ****** ati radeon 9600 xt 256 mb graphic card is right and that anonymous 2 .(only i would take another Ati card like 9800 xt or x800)Anyway i think anonymous is from iraq and shoots al the american soldiers to hell with his ak-47 and his stingers. but he is also right because he thinks iam right. you understand people ?

Wow, I beleive that in the entire 80 posts on this page only 1 or 2 were relevant and actually had decent information, (Thanks DM)I am a Doom person, and have always loved the Doom series, in fact at a recent lan of mine we played COOP Doom 1 for 3 hours straight (entire game). After that I played old Half Life and compared the two, and guess what the two games are totally different, from the story to the gameplay to the graphics and how it should be portrayed. Doom is a dark hellish shooter where you kill hell daemons to save yourself and your a marine. As where in HL your a scientist that gets involved in an experiment that went entirely wrong and you try to escape. Now Doom3 is a revamp of the old Doom essentially being the same thing with massively overhauled Q3 engine both physics and graphically but had the same effect as the original Doom. I enjoyed the game, all the way down to the BFG. Only one gripe though would be no Double Barrel Shotty. Now I dont know the exact story behind HL2 but i assume its going to be an extention of the original. Now think, how does the story differ between the two. First off, D3 is a remake of an old game, and HL2 is a sequal. If you wanted D3 to be an apples to apples comparison storywise, they would have needed to make the game a sequal instead of a remake. Now with that in mind guys, try both games out and then decide off of that which one you personally think is a better game, D3 is essentially a shell for new games, its a graphical breakthrough, as were HL2 has the sweet physics engine, now just immagine an original idea for an FPS's story with D3 graphics and HL2 physics, now that would be your ultimate game, oh wait thats almost already been done, Farcry. Original idea, great GFX and amazing Physics. But i agree with the guy below that said PK is the best game out right now, its essentially what i just said would make a great game that still scares the crap out of you.

The post below is mine, I just forgot to put a name in.

you like having sex with ice?. doesn't ice shrink your small wiener even more?

rofl .I dont choose doom 3 or Half life 2. I choose Wolfenstein enemy territory . its not all about grapihics People !!!!

you are right, its not all about graphics - especially when all the best engines are used in loads of different titles anyway. All games are capable of decent graphics, the thing is that a lot of people are just slaging off a game because the game isnt the way they would have done it. Like all the people who slag off Doom3 because of its lack of mulitplayer. They all want to play counterstrike on the Doom3 engine basically, why dont they just play counterstrike again instead of slaging off Doom3 because its not like counterstrike. It doesnt make any sense.

Bah Half Life 2 wait till STALKER: Beyond Chernobyl comes out it will rock your world.Half Life 2 is good.THE SECRET LITTLE KNOWN FACT IS THAT ALL THESE COUNTER STRIKE PLAYERS ARE KILLING THE GAMEPLAY AND WHAT HALF LIFE STANDS FOR. IT'S LIKE A DISEASE ONLY WORSE. COUNTER STRIKE PLAYERS ARE WRECKING IT.If someone says "BS!", "SIF!" OR "HAX!" tell them they are killing Half Life and multiplayer gaming as we know it.Counter Strike players are stupid too. With the recent release of CS:S the stupid Counter Strike players finally saw bodys and objects that use Karma Physics. That is so old. Hitman, NOLF and more recently Unreal Tournament & UT2K3 + 4 used Karma physics on dead bodies and objects.So what do you hear? "0MFG D34D MOOKFOF GO FLYZOR" Hey d**kheads? Ever played Painkiller?.Oh wait I forgot a REAL SHOOTER like Quake 3 or Team Fortress would take skill tapping a f**king MOUSE BUTTON play a real man's game.Counter Strike... Disease and stupid lame international success since it went retail and 2001.Counter Strike Disease and L33TISM SYNDROME ITS NO BIG f**kING SECRET

Ever notice wherever you go there is nothing but Counter Strike and nothing but people with stupid attitudes towards others in online gaming?But how would I know? Oh I am only one of the top undercover hackers that hacked Counter Strike in 2001. Clans in CAL and leaguez ask me for hacks all the time to bypass the latest VAC cheat protection.It is really obvious and then these clans get busted because I code a routine into my hacks that makes it obvious by printing stuff in the server logs 3 months later.The clans don't know the hacks are bugged with glitchs and backdoors so they run them in clan matches then there is a silent big fiasco in their forums when they are busted and the person from the clan gets banned.Private Hacks are one thing but super secret hacks are another thing. Have you heard of the walkbot? I made another version called AIPlayerBot its like one of the not very well known hacks that only a few people have. It doesn't respond it actually plays for you and you can then just watch it.Counter Strike is wrecked totally its more hacked than Quake 3. Even Balanced had a disagreement with Valve and Valve wanted to stay priopriety so they ditched them and made VAC the thing is there are people inside Valve feeding hackers code so that they can always get around the latest VAC release. Not to many people know this.Myg0t are a bunch of whinging ******* if it wasn't for the real hackers they would still be sucking mommie's d**k. Myg0t doesn't hack. Oh you may think it but it is the real hackers who are secretly getting by all the protection.Anti Cheating what you ask?Well if you have ever seen a player that seems to real to be real then that was surely a super secret hack.The problem is the normal Counter Strike players are too stupid and idiotic to realise that there are these really super great hackers out there doing amazing things.Then they start accusing people.Ever notice how Counter Strike players like to try

Then there is the SKILL issue. Ever had that "1 0wnz3d j00 kekekeke" syndrome when your playing online chances are thats what is called a D!CKHEAD Counter Strike Migranter. Then the next line that follows "This game sucks. Im going back to play CS!" which just shows that Counter Strike players can't adapt. If you adapt to other games and play Counter Strike good for you but there are these idiots who claim that they won't play anything but Counter Strike then they go back to Counter Strike and rot in the cess pit that Counter Strike creates.What was the real reason for Minh Le to give up Counter Strike to Valve by version 6.5? It was the players. Counter Strike players are the most whinging group of girls you will ever meet. So the AWP is changed and changed and changed. But they still keep whinging. "OH IT NOT FAIR AWP *****! UH UH UH" so Valve changes the AWP again. Hey what about the Riot Shield? Did you know they are whinging about that now. OF COURSE YOU DID ITS NO BIG SECRET. But did you know that Valve were going to put a Rocket Launcher and a suicide belt in Condition Zero? Bet you didn't. Guess who had a whinge about all that ****. The people at CS NATION "OH BUT SUICIDE BELT ET BAD... WHA WHA WHA" Now Counter Strike doesn't get interesting it gets even more stupid.Valve recently tweaked the accuracy of the guns and GUESS WHO DID THE ACCURACY TEST? CS ****** NATION. Of course all the players need to know which weapons are the most accurate so they can exert this thing called SKILL its actually called a low sensitivity and tapping the mouse button.

Make a campaign nowNO COUNTER STRIKE SOURCE UNTIL COUNTER STRIKE PLAYERS LEARN TO PLAY FAIR, NICE AND ALL RIGHT.

Pimpin_whityat 12:29 17/8/2004actually the doom 3 section has over 200 posts of ****, we have about 40.Yeah DOOM 3 is made by Carmack and that says everything.It is such a shame Romero had to leave.HL2 good for you.

I know people who already made hacks for CS:S and are pwning these clowns on CS:S. Also, CS:S isn't much, I played it at my friends house and it's basically CS 1.6 without shield and better graphics and the graphics arn't even that good. The whole physics thing doesn't have an affect on gameplay for me, I just play the same way I played CS 1.6 and I own. So I don't see what the big deal is about the physics.The awp needs to be takin out of CS because then all thew newbs would get mad and leave and leave us skilled players use the ak, m4 and what not.I'm waiting for that time when a hacker hacks steam and steals all accounts from the steam server and f**ks it all up.

Well how come the first 50 posts where basically a waste on this post?To the people trying to compare Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 are fools.Yes they are both FPS but they are different games. Half-Life had plenty of shooting but it also had lots of puzzles through it as well.People who use hacks for CS anything are lame. I mean online. If its you and a couple of mates at a private lan than have a bit of a laugh when you kill your mate with headshot and your off at the fridge getting more drinks. But don't use them online thats just stupid.I got to play CS:S on my mates account the other day cause we were all at a lan together and the physics I think could actually make a difference to gameplay if people learn to use them. For example put a Besa Block near the bomb and you might just be able to hit a CT with it when the bomb goes off.Everyone knows that the AWP is overpowered in CS doesn't take a guinnes to work it out thats why there are lots of server with AWP turned off.I played games long before CS and I intend on playing games long after CS.The Main lan I go to had one or two games of cs over the 20 hours it ran for. That is my two biggest complaints about CS. It stuffed up lanning for a fair while because you couldn't get a game of anything but CS. The other would be all the people who take CS way to seriously.Thank you goes to the people near the end who actually posted stuff that was usefull.

LOL everytime i see ppl talking about hackers and cheaters in cs makes me laugh so bad since they discovered the bug that made one guy barely invicible because you didnt see him where he realy was and you couldnt hit him unless you would lead alot in front. so you could empty a clip point blank at him not moving and he wouldnt die LOLi never played cs but knowing that all those years there was a crazy bug like that and everyone pointed cheaters I HAVE TO LAUGH!!!

Both Doom 3 and hl2 look great, can't wait to get them. Hopefully the multiplayer in hl2 will kick *** as much as hl1 did, still play it and its amazingly good still all those years later!Hope you all enjoy it!p.s I think it's really funny if you look down this post. One guy tries to correct another guy's grammar and spells the word grammer wrong! hehe :) 'grammer'

continued:so the WINNER that was picked was the "6800 ultra". why? because the average highend user will be using a barton or P4 (non EE version) overclocked. the x800 xt really needs a high end cpu to shine, but the 6800 ultra worked well with the lower end cpu's. now again the x800 xp was far from being bad it was just not as good.so yes the x800 xt is the fastest thing out there but for a larger group who do not need to upgrade motherboards and cpu's the 6800 ultra was the champ.

well i have never seen so much fighting over who is the best and what game sucks. i am going to put things straight with what we found to be true in ower rigs.what is the best card? well it is hard to say. it is just not a one answer but a whole picture that makes something good.we took a group of computers and ran test with a 6800 ultra (a friend got this when he picked up an alienware computer), x800 XT, 9800XT and an fx 5950. all we did was changed video cards but kept the same computer as is.some basic info on the computers: one barton 2500 (overclocked to 3200) one P4 2.4ghz (overclocked to 3ghz) both of these have 1024mb of ddr 333 ram and a 80gb 7200 rpm hard drive.one EE P4 3.4ghz, and one AMD 64 3400 (overclocked to a close 3800) both of these have 1536 MB of DDR 400 ram and a 74gb 10000 rpm hard drive.with most gamers the first group (who i belong to) will count the most, the second group are for people who have to much money (but i can honestly say the guys who own those rigs are down to earth).games used in test: farcry, doom 3 (with ati we did change the code for performance, we saw no visual effect change to believe that this was unfair), thief 3, homeworld 2, syberia 2 and need for speed underground.between the fx 5950 vs. the 9800xt, the 9800xt was by far the better of the two in both group one and two. but keep in mind we saw nothing wrong with the fx 5950 it just was not as good (visually or fps, when averaged with all of the games)now what we have been waiting for: the 6800 ultra vs. the x800 xt, this was at a split. in the barton 3200 and the p4 3ghz we found that the 6800 ultra was better in most cases. we believe that it is due to a cpu bottle neck problem. now when you go to the EE P4 3.4ghz and the AMD 64 3800 the x800 xt was a monster of a card. played everything at max settings with an average iq and at 1600 x 1200 (nfs underground could not go to 1600 X 1200 res. with any card).

This game is going to be good. i have played it already... but i would like to say that the e3 videos of 2002 were faked.

yes it is true, overclocking is not the same results as a true cpu at that speed (normally o.c. is a little bit slower), but if you use non-overclocked video cards on an overclocked cpu and tested them all the same the results are true. we ran the test from the barton 2500 to the 3200 overclocked (the same for the P4 2.4 ghz to the overclocked 3 ghz) and we saw that the performance would grow as you went up in cpu power, but did not see the big jump until we went to a P4 EE 3.4 ghz or the AMD 64 3400 (we o.c. the amd to give the p4 ee a run for it's money, due to the fact that the p4 ee went up against the fx 51 cpu; the AMD was also the best in the results) each 4 systems used the latest drivers and all of the games were set at the highest playable settings (which ever could run with more detail,eg: higher iq, game visual settings, res., and kept 30 fps would win) we ran the tests over and over again to be sure the results were right.here are some links to show you how overclocked cpu are compaired to regular one of the same level.[url removed] with most gamers (go to the forums and you will see) they use overclocked cpu's and overclocked video cards (again all results in our test were done with non-overclocked video cards) we want great gaming at a fraction of the cost.why did i only use high end stuff?? because that is where all of the fighting is being placed on. what card would be the best for you. yes if you own a 3.2 ghz p4 or higher cpu or an amd 64 3000 +, an ati x800xt is the best for you. but again the majority of gamers own an overclocked system and that is what we looked for, what card is the best for the largest group (that is why we picked the 6800 ultra).unless you have the money and own those expensive systems (for most of you on this sight you do not have those systems) one day when you want performance you will also (with the right equipmen

First of all doom3 went gold, released and stuff reason why there was 200+ posts of crap(i helped :) ) there. People claiming they had D3 etc etc..Hl2 on megagames has been re-hashed for the past year stolen alpha, bench marks, screen shots.You can see why this topic barely scratchs 100 just when another HL2 related news topic just died off.(leaked storyline)

I thought HL2 would finally be released is Sep., I guess I wrong, EB Games has Nov. as release date, when did this happen?O well, *shrug* I'll go back having sex with myself

lol megagames just made another hl2 related topic shows how much they <3 Hl2.

f**king good movie!!!

Where da F*CK is that HL-2 anyway.I really fu*kin fed up with those screenshoots en trailers wich got released every **** week, i dont want that crap I want this game.And I fu*kin swear man, I will not spend my money on buying that game, I'll just download a pirated version of it so that stupid fu*kin VALVE won't have my money.F*CK them ALL.

this is a cool site and i am over 18 years old i am 19

wow, do the graphics ever suck in this game. yes, I'm a graphics ***** and HL2 looks like ****.

very good game i love it

Alright Lets not be shalow This is better then D3 And Killzone. This game has physics for every single fukin thing. It is unfort only a good single player game but i like this trailer. Does not show best in graphics and physic engine but it is not bad.

well when i played it, it at my friends house ;) it was pritty amazing

You guys/gals care too much... its just another game...how boring.

Looks like Valve doesn't know how to make a decent game engine. Shadowing system sucks ***, I want F.E.A.R. to come out and OWN this pile of garbage.

man forget about all this san andress, doom 3, man thing strate

The Half Life 2 Trailer is very cool. I think the game is very good. The engine is very beutifull full. Holger

HEY GUYS CHECKOUT THE INTERVIEW WITH THE hALF-LIFE DEVELOPERS. TRUST ME THEY WORKED HARD!!!

For anyone looking for amazing graphics to back all the hl2 engine hype... check out doom3... I'm a digital artist, and all the hype is just that hype... I'm running hl2 on a AMD 64bit 4000+ system with WinXp and a ATI X800 PE card (1600 x 1200 - full everything)... The water is "ok" other than that.... this game is bullshit... good job gabe... fu*king moron... check out what Carmack is creating with his next engine... The first half-life was amazing, and even ground breaking is the late 90's. Bottom line - HL2 = waste of 6 years and 54.99...

The text was good, but i stil cant find the play ipdates. looking for it dude.

Nice one, but what about der weg ? anywya, congrats from me.

Flying Monkey

i don't get why people are critisixing this game, I think this game is very good, the developers did a good job with the models, there are over 40 ****** muscles alone, which convey a very realistic expiriance in the game. The graphics are very nice, and i think this game has it's money's worthI'd rate it a 9.3 out of 10

Nice. Another great game.

This game is shaping up to be the best First Person Shooter of all time.

how would you know , you havnt plkayed it... ur basing ur opinion on hype, have to wait until it comes out.

This game does look amazing though. I think that they've got enough support that they can't mess it up.Then again, there was Star Wars...and the Matrix...so...I'm still crossing my fingers.

This is gonna suck.

V3rT0 shutup you doom 3 fanboy this game will be great

and to the annony poster, some of us played the alpha leak :D

the 'alpha leak' is ****

I hated the first HL and most of the time, sequals are never good as the first so I bet this will be a stinker but all the nerds are going to buy it.Also, check this out[url removed] knows where to get that, hook us up.P.S. the trailer. it's nothing new.
