so when's half-life 2 coming out???

[draggoon01]

any new info released? shouldn't they be gold by now if they're releasing on the 30th? all i've seen is that some benchmark demo will be released to press on 30th.

and steam is out of beta i think, but dunno what that means towards the game release?

9/30

 

[bernse]

I thought it was pushed back?

i think most of us will have to buy new video cards to get this game to work

Should be around the same as the 9200 in the anandtech chart. Also overclock it a little and see what you can get.

Is there some indication as to performance numbers available? I have a 9700 Pro and a 3.3GHz P4 and I really enjoyed the first Half-Life.

 

[draggoon01]

how are you guys certain it's the 30th?

was there a recent announcement anywhere confirming?

[hdeck]

it won't be out on the 30th; that's just wishful thinking =\

 

[jinduy]

i wonder how my voodoo 3500 will handle this game ???

 

[blurredvision]

The will NOT be out on the 30th as previously said at E3 in May. They pushed it back till Q4 of 2003. Valve did say that it will be out in time for the holidays though.

Want proof?

Just checked that, thanks!

Sure am glad I don't own a GeForce card anymore.

Sweet, ill probably get around 50+ frames once the Dell 3.2 ghz 400 SC comes (going to put my 9700 PRO AIW in it)

On the other hand we must admit that NVIDIA still has plenty of time to fix issues with their drivers and increase the performance of their cards in Halflife 2, which is estimated for November this year.

hmmm, either they don't know what they're talking about or they have the most up to date info, since this is from the benchmark every site has written up this week

EB Games says it ships 11/19, Newegg says it ships 11/28

It sounds like 9/30 is the date for the demo, and no one knows when the full version hits the streets. I think the answer is (as mentioned before): "when it's ready"

 

[StageLeft]

further away the better, since it means I'll be forced to upgrade my computer.

Grrr...sounds like I'm gonna have to reinstall HL 1 to get my fix.
