Half Life 2 at E3

I don't know if anyone else has seen the Half Life 2 video demonstration at E3, I just watched it. Wow, this game is going to be amazing. This looks like the best FPS game ever made. Real physics, super interactive environments, cool weapons, good AI, nice graphics. I can't wait until it comes out.

I'm estimating at least 6 months, but more like another year.

This game was suppose to be released Sept 30th 2003. Then Valve got hacked and now there is a playable alpha out there. So that delayed it to April 1. Must have been an April fools joke because it did'nt. Now The word is "Summer". But that could be end of September again.

But in all fairness to Valve, Gabe Newell (The CEO) said that the game is now playable from begining to end. Now they're mainly watching beta testers play the game so the can "optimize the HL2 expierience". He said that if they see to many people die in the same spot that's bad, so the tweek the level to spread out the action.

Gabe Newell said "We just want to create the greatest First Person Shooter game ever".

I can't wait to play this.

As for this year's HL2 videos I was'nt as impressed as I was last year. Now those Bink videos were amazing.
