I hope fileplanet (and now fileshack) both go out of business. Lines, and now subscriber-only material? Bastards. I will get a link I saw somewhere that has alot of good video in a sec, it's on my other computer.
Sweet, its over 20 minutes long and its supposed to show the strider in action. I have the smaller movie showing the gravity gun.

...I just found it myself and am getting it now.

I got between 19 and 72.
But yes, it was unbelievable. This looks oodles better than Doom 3 to me...

yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. But in the defense of D3, they haven't REALLY shown much. They've been doing a good job of keeping all the details under wraps.
Watching the HL2 video gave me serious thoughts of laying down $400 for a new videocard and cpu.
That Bit torrent thing seems to not like my setup. Maybe the NAT router is hosing it. It dops dwn to ~ 3K sec down and9 K up. Gotta find another place to get the video!
Had a look on Kazaa but only found one host with the file and connection was not possible..... at least the bit torrent thing works and provides a constant stream, getting around 30k/s so looking ok.
Fileplanet now has it for non subscribers (I says its the 500 Meg file). I'm waiting in line now.
For those of you that say, "Yuck, 500megs?" I say: "That's the most awesome demonstration of video game technology ever dangit." Download this sucker, it won't disappoint.

Same, I am saving up for a Athlon 64, New GFX Card, New Motherboard and of course Half-Life along with Doom 3.
Got it from FilePlanet last night. Wow! Incredible. Half-Life 2 will be the biggest thing since.....Half Life.
All I really think I'm going to need myself is MAYBE a new video card, DX9 compatible, and even then only if I NEED to run at high detail. I'll see, but this would be the only reason for me to get one.
According to planet halflife, its a very scaleable engine.
Half-Life 2 looks very good, i just finished DLing and watching the video.
But one of the reasons that Doom3 doesnt look as good, texture wise, is because,
a)Doom3 relies heavily on normal/bump mapping for the impressive visuals, and hence, not so good textures.
b) Doom3 is all in the dark, you can hardly see anything!!!
