Default Re: Half Life 2 is Released!!

Half Life 2 is so much better than Doom 3 in it's scalability. I heard from someone running at bare minimum requirements, and they were still able to play smoothly, and said the game still looked decent.

So, if you have the minimum specs, no viruses and a defraged harddrive, you should have no problem playing HL 2.

My specs:

P4 2.6ghz
Gforce 4 5200 overclocked or something.
512 Mb Ram

Middle of the line. I want to get a gig of memory to speed up the load times.

Anyways, HL 2 is rockin!!! So addicting! I have skipped 2 days of school on accident because of this game because I lose track of time.

Typically when Valve/HL2 auto-detects settings, it does a good job. But you could probably turn it up a bit more in some spots if its good. For the GF4ti/FX series its either gonna choose DX8.0/8.1 as the default and it should run smooth with the looks a smidge toned down (but still awesome looking).
