Half-Life 2 Teaser Movie Released

Posted by simoniker on from the headcrabinacious dept.

tplessers writes "Check out the official Half-Life 2 teaser movie (IGN.com link, .MOV format). The screenshots from last week were breathtaking, but seeing it all move in such a realistic way makes it all complete..." Looks like there are plenty of stable mirrors up for this now, including DivX versions from Fileplanet and Fileshack (registrations required), or the zero-registration P2P goodness of BitTorrent linkage from Gametab.

    Now valve has added a new monster. Some horrible creature that attachs itself to its victim chest in pairs. Just look at what it did to that young boy.

    a girl you say? In half-life? Yeah, like I will fall for that one.

    HE was facing down an entire enemy army of alien stormtroopers with a crowbar.

    Well, the Uruk Hai yelled 'Forget this dude with the sword, FIND THE HALFLINGS, FIND THE HALFLINGS', and so the orks took off after the hobbits down the hill, and left Strider alone with a few orks up on the hill and and...

    Yup... Posted them above...
    And here again!

    Still something in the game seems lacking. I don't know what but there is. The only thing I really liked was the engine's power!!! In the first one they show the superb physics and some cool special effects like the water. They show a model with a water attribute applied to it, it looks AWESOME. I just hope the real game will feature some of these special effects...

    Btw, I found a small glitch :) There's a place where they move a camera and see the screen. Instead of being recursivly render, the inside screen features some texture... I only noticed this after the 5th time I saw it, so it's not a real problem :)

    You might be referring to these, about 250 MB of high quality quicktimes.

    There is also a torrent link in the discussion posted by another /.'er, you might see which one has the most seeds and the fasted downloads.
