G4TV To Preview Half-Life 2 Expansion

Voodoo Extreme has word that new technology for the Steam engine, as well as a HL2 expansion entitled 'The Lost Coast', will be shown off on G4TV's Attack of the Show (formerly The ScreenSavers). From the article: "On Wednesday's show, Valve's Doug Lombardi will give an exclusive demonstration of the previously unseen 'The Lost Coast,' an upcoming expansion that utilizes a brand-new technology that Valve is implementing into the Source engine. Called 'high-dynamic range lighting,' this new technology enables a leap in lighting realism from even the current high benchmark set by Half-Life 2 and the existing Source engine."

    With that said, HL2 was awesome and almost worth the wait, and i'll end up buying the expansion. *sigh*

    Well, I'm definitely not going to buy this particular expansion...

    'Cause it'll be a free download!
