Enjoy.

I've never played Half Life before.

Is it better than Unreal Tournament? Or Quake 3?

and the only problem with being optimistic is that you open yourself up to even more disappointment.

Half life had a good hooror feeling, because it was fast, smooth and frantic. well, frantic.....hmmmm......frantic? huh? huh?

Maybe so, but we'll never know until it's released shall we?

No higher than 800*600? Maybe you're the one being optomisitic

Obviously you'll not be able to play the game on more than a 800x600 screen size! Don't bne so optimistic.

I'm pretty sure it's an offical announcment from valve. Hey managed to run the original smoothly on the minimum specs so don't be so suprised if half-life two runs on the minimum specs.

Looking at those specs, and considering the game, I'd estimate that those are the minimum specs if you'd like to see a nice slideshow that changes picture slightly every second.

And 16mb 3D Card? I'd be suprised - thats a voodoo 3 standard, my money would be on a 32mb Geforce 2 at least.

That just a predicition or an official announcement from Valve?
