And are those big monstors supposed to be the little guys from HL that would jump for your head... If so there WAY bigger then in the first one.
alright guys i am impressed!!
this might be the reasosn i upgrade to 9800 pro :D
Excuse me, while I go change into a new pair of paints, becuase I just wet myself.
One more reason I'm building a new pc
Man to be honest this doesnt do much for me,at this point ill wait until i can get my hands on some hi res screenies because there are a couple of problems with those pics, i hate to say it but at this point i believe doom3 looks better....
These look really good. I love that street one with the guys wearing the gasmasks. I'd like to see some new ones though, actual screenshots, and maybe a video from E3. Yes. That's what I want. :)
However, as good as it looks, none of these have challenged my Doom 3 chainsaw zombie wallpaper yet.
/me goes back to staring at his wallpaper. :D
Well even buffer screengrabs wont put half life 2 above doom3 technically, what half life 2 has going for it are the high res textures (much more than doom3), the kickass valve modellers and artists, but when it comes to dynamic lighting and shadows, polybump, per-pixel lighting, bump mapped surfaces, it doesnt approach doom3 (heck, it doesnt do any of the above so..)
I prefer half life 2 visuals over doom3 though, but thats for an art reason.
I dont think you guys with 2000+ mhz cpus, 512MB onboard memory and 9700 or better video cards even have to worry one bit about half life 2.
Cant wait to see it in motion at E3 :D
Considering that none of us know the tech specs of the engine arent you being a little presumptuous buggy?
No :)
You can analyze pretty much the majority of a graphic engine based on screenshots, beyond3d's tech heads have already done so for many games, beside the PC GAMER mag, or the devs (i dont really remember) said in the article that a geforce4 could pull off these at around 70fps :)
what the hell is a pixel shader?
Does anyone have any idea what the requirements/recommended system specs will be to run HL2??
special effect. IE the watter in the screens is a good example. its suppost to help things look life likeQuote:
