	bit-tech.net \| HalfLife 2: Episode 2 delayed
		Valve has confirmed that HalfLife 2: Episode 2 (and all of its wonderful trimmings) will be delayed.
		2 has a lot more riding on it than just the next piece of episodic content.
		It also brings up questions as to Valve's rollout of the multi-core patches to the Source engine, which were vaguely slated for "before Episode 2." And though it is rampant speculation, one could even assume that HL3 might be delayed a bit from its December, 2007 release.

	Half-Life 2 - from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
		Half-Life 2 picks up the story an indeterminate number of years after the Black Mesa incident in 'City 17', which seems to be located somewhere in Eastern Europe.
		Half-Life 2: Deathmatch currently has seven "official" maps, some of which are based on areas from the single-player game: "dm_overwatch," "dm_lockdown," "dm_steamlab," "dm_underpass," "dm_powerhouse," "dm_resistance" and "dm_runoff." "Dm_overwatch" is based on the single-player chapter "Follow Freeman!," while "dm_lockdown" is based on the Nova Prospekt chapter.
		Half-Life 2 was originally intended to be a far darker game where the Combine were more obviously draining the oceans for minerals and replacing the atmosphere with noxious, murky gasses.

	Half-Life 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Half-Life 2 is an immersive first person shooter from the developers at Valve Software, the creators of the original Half-Life.
		Building off of the riveting storyline and gameplay of the debut title, Half-Life 2 pushes the envelope even further and has once again "raised the bar" of the FPS genre.
		In addition to the PC version, Half-Life 2 has been ported to Xbox and will be released for both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 in 2007.

	PC Games - HalfLife 2 Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		It was the first major title of its kind that got the player deeply involved with the story line and brought new levels of world detail and surroundings.
		Half-Life 2 has no multiplayer whatsoever; instead, Valve relies on Counter Strike: Source which in its current state of affairs is a beta at best.
		It’ll be interesting to see if the gaming community bashes Half-Life 2 worse than Doom 3 — at least it had some form of MP right out of the box.

	UGO.com Games - The Half-Life 2 Dossier - The Review
		GTA San Andreas, Halo 2, and even DOOM 3 have all had their fair share of hype and millions of games sold, but HL2 takes science fiction and tight gameplay in such a new direction that it's hard to even compare it.
		The first thing I noticed about Half-Life 2 is that it pays so much homage to its predecessor that you almost get a full-on flashback of the events in the first game right off the bat.
		Half-Life 2 doesn't quite take it to this degree, as levels are generally fairly large, and on my computer load times were between five and fifteen seconds most of the time.

	GeekLimit » Blog Archive » Halflife 2 Episode 1
		If you have not already heard, Halflife 2 Episode 1 was released on 1st June, it’s the first of 3 episodes to be released by Valve to extend the story and world around Halflife 2.
		Halflife 2 had some stunning graphics when it was released last year, and episode 1 has been tweaked and improved to include some of the features of newer graphics cards since then like HDR and more shader effects, there is also an option for ultra graphics, perfect if you have an SLi rig.
		After waiting 6 years for Halflife 2, I am glad they are doing this but I also hope that they don’t forget to create Halflife 3 sometime as well.

		The halflife is the amount of time it takes for half of the atoms in a sample to decay.
		The halflife for a given isotope is always the same ; it doesn't depend on how many atoms you have or on how long they've been sitting around.
		For example, the applet will tell you that the halflife of beryllium 11 is 13.81 seconds.

	Half-Life 2 (pc: 2004): Reviews
		Half-Life 2 hits the ground running and never stops, and playing it for long periods of time can actually be exhausting.
		Half-Life 2 doesn't have any radically new technology under its hood, but every bit of it is as polished as the floor of a palace...A lock for Game of the Year but also as the yardstick against which future first-person shooters will be compared for years to come.
		With tasty graphics and gameplay that is sheer madness, Half-life 2 is sweeter than a chocolate-and-honey lollipop coated with sugar, and it provides twice the rush.

		After recently publishing their interview with some of Valve's staff on Team Fortress 2, IGN has strayed away from the technicalities involving the game and has focused entirely on the gameplay aspect with their new hands-on preview.
		In Half-Life 2, if we wanted to have a strider attack or blow up a building, it was always a building that you couldn't go into...
		In terms of what's being used from Half-Life 2 specifically in this title, at the moment it seems just the water and its normal maps were apparently ripped, at first glance, from the game.

	Tweakfactor.com: Half-Life 2 MIA... Half-Life 2 Coupon AWOL - Page 1 - Get your tweak on! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Unfortunately, the delay (and code theft) of Half-Life 2 did not make it possible to include the game so that a coupon was issued instead where the end user would have the option of downloading the game via STEAM or paying a nominal sum to get a physical copy of the CD delivered.
		Although the delay of Half-Life 2 was a disappointment, gamers rejoiced still; the Half-Life 2 pack in with the 9600 XT was an excellent value as the game would be close to 50$ and the 9600XT at the time of announcement was only 199$.
		Powercolor's version of the story is that ATI pulled the Half-Life 2 bundle but it does not seem 100% accurate as reported here by [H]ardOCP.

		Since the day we finished the single-player game, Valve had yet to say a single word about the game we all knew they'd get around to making one day; even getting someone to go on record and acknowledge the game's development was a near-impossible task.
		Using the shotgun, we could pick the barrel out of the air (sending it hurtling back at the zombie), as well as shoot out wooden planks on the pier.

		I started off with Doom 2 (there's my 'Fractured' episode out there somewhere), then moved on to Quake.
		I got a good deal of important work done on Metastasis 2 done at the weekend, and it's now beginning to resemble a single-player map instead of just some arbitrary geometry.
		This'll probably give psychiatrists a field day, but some of my earliest memories are of nightmares about huge, impossibly deep holes in the ground, snaking down into hideous, mysterious depths.

	Half-Life 2 for Mac Petition
		A lot of Mac users keep a Windows PC around only for games, and many of us would like to be able to get rid of our PC, but in order to do so we need to get some more games onto the Mac platform.
		Valve's support in bringing Half-Life 2 across would be a great step in this direction, as the game is promising to sell very well, and selling to Mac users would be no exception.

		I did not report this news here immediately because there have been so many rumours about HL2 lately its hard to know which are real and which arent, but this morning both MSNBC and the BBC News websites were reporting the story.
		Vivendi Universal, the publishers of Half-life 2, the long awaited sequel to Half-life, developed by Valve, have confirmed Valves announcement from last Tuesday that Half-life 2 will not make its planned 30th September 2003 release date.
		Most of the problems people were having were due to the initial demand for STEAM overloading the servers, but a few tweaks and problem fixes have also been released since.

	Hardware Analysis - HalfLife 2 benchmarks, Valve, ATI marketing and more
		But he also mentioned performance of currently available videocards with HalfLife 2 and unless you missed the coverage by other websites about this subject it is save to say that ATI came out on top.
		But by reading the reports from people that have actually been to the event and seen the side by side comparisons we learn that DX9 is mostly used for eye candy in HalfLife 2, and not so much to up the frame rate.
		Nvidia must’ve sold quite a few extra videocards because of the simple fact that they had 32-bit color, regardless of the fact that very few games used it, or could use it without suffering a severe performance penalty.

		I’m jaded, I hate to think it and probably shouldn’t say it to open up a preview but what the hell, probably anyone who is writing a Half-Life 2 preview right now is in similar shoes and just wont admit it.
		I hid it well from the Valve guys I think, but it was there, and I was dying to dive across the table and take the controls.
		Half-Life 2 is indeed a true sequel, you continue on the amazing life of Gordon Freeman and the plot is driven by events that took place in the original Half-Life.

	IGN: Half-Life 2 Review
		Half-Life 2 is, simply put, the best single-player shooter ever released for the PC.
		And once the initial shock of it all wears off and it becomes possible to peel back the polished layers of sight and sound, there is an excellent shooter here.
		I'm not exceedingly happy about the forced registration even if it is understandable in today's climate of highly pirated games, though I can't say I believe this will stop ultra-determined hackers from cracking the game regardless.

		What I can tell you however (in the humble opinion of a dedicated PC gamer for 15 years), is that Half Life 2 is the the most mind blowing game I've ever played.
		Half-Life 2: Episode One is a direct continuation of the Half-Life story.

	GamesIndustry.biz - Half-Life 2 officially goes gold, aiming for November 16 launch
		VU Games will release the retail version of the game on that date (which presumably translates as November 19th in Europe, where games are generally launched on Friday), while Valve will also unlock the title for customers of its Steam distribution service then.
		Half-Life 2 will now launch a week after another of the year's most anticipated games, Bungie's Xbox-exclusive FPS title Halo 2 - although, ironically, what should have been one of the most interesting chart face-offs ever could well be a damp squib if Valve's Steam service successfully diverts consumers from retail outlets.
		All sign of the tensions between Valve and Vivendi was absent from this morning's statement, of course, with VU Games CEO Bruce Hack gushing in his praise for Valve's efforts on the game.
