Damnit.... bandwidth was exceeded about halfway through my reading that (you got another source?).... but it still looked just as good as I expected. It sounds like my Radeon 9800 pro'll be able to run this as it ran Doom 3 just fine, albeit at lower resolutions and after I got the new drivers for it (I was getting pissed at the constant crashes before that). Only problem is I might be going away by next month and have to wait at least a few more months to play it. I sure hope not...

basically, it got a 96, it's amazing, the characters are amazing, and the gravity gun makes it mind-blowingly radical.

I got at least far enough to read about that gravity gun and it's definitely one of the things I'm most looking foreward to. Well, that and destroying offices and... everything else for no reason other than I finally can. I've destroyed everything possible in the original.. I've destrtoyed everything possible in Doom 3, (unfortunately, there was far too little to destroy) and I'm waiting to do the same in this, and it sounds like I'll have some real fun this time. Oh yea... the game looks fun, too.

that's weird.
Valve have said that there is a strict embargo on all preview reviews - they were supposed only to be published (be it on paper or on the net) on the day of the release of the game itself.

They appear to have said bollocks to that. It got 90% in PC Gameplay. Dutch mag I think.....
People are complaining about that. HA! Wankers.

People are complaining that it got 90%. They say it's too low. I say they're wankers because:
a) They haven't played the game
b) How the fuck is that low?
BAM!

I don't like that mag but it's the only UK one with a review imminently. They're such wankers at that mag. Or at least they come across that way when they write.

basically all gaming magazines are like that... bunch of 25-year-old wankers who are trying to impress a legion of 14-year-olds - and succeeding at that.
I just ordered that magazine, I feel dirty now. I need to take a shower. :(

it's great simply because it has stuff that is old - which, as silly as it may sound, is very rare on the internet.

on the Halo front - the PC version uses the standard mouse-controlled movement spiel, which is just the best way to play any FPS.
I'm enjoying the running/driving around guns-a-blazing a lot! :)

I can't wait for this. Does anybody have any links to screenshots of the original Half-Life remake, HL-Source or whatever? A 4.5 second search that I put no effort into yielded little results.
