Half Life 2 To Appear At E3
MonsieurEvil writes "Valve announced today (http://www.planethalflife.com) that the long-awaited Half-Life 2 will be appearing at E3, and will be released this year. The NDA for press is supposed to end on April 28th, and quite a few magazines are already hyping their scoops. Hopefully all the teen-angst types that show their superiority through decrying this as vaporware can now listen to their elders..."
One headline: Half-life 2 to appear at E3. Story on pages 4, 5 and 6!
Weening off of windows is always a good thing, but would it really hurt to leave a 10gig partition to play windows only games?
Yes it would, since I'm quite fond of my SGI USB keyboard which GRUB doesn't recognize, and for some reason it simply won't work on a USB->PS/2 adapter. Also, now that I've escaped, going back is fairly abhorent to me, as is the case when one finally escapes from any bad relationship.
And even if HL2 doesnt support it natively, i'm sure that the gaming version of wine will be able to pick it up within a month or two.
I'm not sure that will be a significantly less painful solution, at least for the next year ot so, when my system specs might be 2-3x the system requirements for the game.
Under capitalism man exploits man. Under communism it's the other way around.
Hopefully all the teen-angst types that show their superiority through decrying this as vaporware can now listen to their elders...
Damn... I hate it when my dad is right about video games. I'm going to paint my computer purple. That'll show him!
