on: May 08, 2003, 01:10:13 pm
I've just bought the new issue of UK PCGamer (June) and there is a [SIZE=10]SIXTEEN PAGE[/SIZE] preview of Half-Life 2!

I cannot give anymore inforamtion as I two busy being amazed by it. I'm trying to find something on their website, but the site itself is hard enough to find.

This link will have to do for now.

Has no one got anything to say?!?!

This is the greatest gaming event for five years!

PCG called it "The Only Game That Matters!"

The press embargo should expire in a few hours and you'll start to see previews on game sites.

Here's a few screenshots that slipped past the corporate blockade.  They'll probably be gone in three.....two......

We have to wait five more months!!!!

I don't know if I can take the pressure......

OK, that's a lie, I can take it no problem, but yes - this is THE most important game of any genre for at least three years (Deus Ex was the last), and by far the most important FPS since the original. Pah, to think that a fortnight ago I was jumping up and down waiting for Doom 3.....

Right at this moment I'll admit that I'm really looking foward to Vice City for the P.C.

Looks rather impressive :nod: If they can offer a good plot and unique gameplay I think I'll go after this. Those evil bugger things (not the headcrabs, the leggy things) look pretty "Starship Troopers" like for some reason. Makes you want to squish them with your foot.

:wtf: that'd be insane. 56kers all over the world wouldn't buy the game, that'd be one of the worst marketing decisions in recent times. (seeing that HL2 is so anticipated)
