I saved all images... All I can say is... :shock:
It's better than what I hoped for. Remember the screenshot somebody posted earlier? Well, it was actually a real one.

Don't get me wrong, it looks great. I'm still waiting to see human shapes that don't move like robots, though.
Howedar is no longer here. Need to talk to him? Talk to Pick.

Howedar, we've had those for a while. The character movement in games like Halo and GTA3 were insanely lifelike, and have only been improving...

Supposedly it can run on systems as low as a 900 mhz yet they have it designed to the point that it will be another year before any computer can fun the game on full settings.

Entirely home built system. I wouldn't be surprised if TF2 is going to be part of this or will take advantage of the HL2 engine.
