And given the score that PCZ gave CS:CZ...
...worst licensing ever.

I'm not saying CS:CZ will be good, it just seems wrong to review something that isn't done.
rizzuh wrote..Actually, PCZ is normally quite good about not reviewing finished software. I suspect that were told it was gold, rather than them just reviewing something which they knew wasn't finished. Could be wrong, of course.

Sneaky wrote..well actually im looking forward to everything, including the HL multiplayer, it should be a lot o' fun.
I think most are waiting for HL2 so we are closer to getting to CS2. After all, HL2 will only provide about 15-20 hours of gameplay. After that it's back to CS. CS with HL2 physics will be a huge improvement.

im buiding a new computer specifically for this game
radeon 9800 pro 256mb :>

It is hard to say which engine is better alot has to do with the textuer artists...
Pharlap wrote..I'd say go for ATI too, even though I prefer nVIDIA. The idea that maybe someday we'll get FSAA with a card you bought before the game is released is appealing.
nvidia says their video cards are the best for HL2
and ATI Tech say the same thing....sigh.......im gonna go for ATI this time.
Sneaky wrote..BZZZT. With 12 chapters, each at 3 to 4 hours, that's 36 to 48 hours. But I get what you are trying to say. Singleplayer has a fixed amount of playtime. Hopefully non-scripted sequences "Increase Replayability"®. Then again, I'm a singleplayer fanboy.

Paul Shuttle wrote..Think about this: When PC Gamer's reviews come out to subscribers the day HL2 is released, they had already done the review ~three months before.

HeadHunter (007) wrote..did u know that the original doom series had the fps locked at 31. ? i dont think any1 who has experienced a 3d accelerator card (and 99% of us sure have by now) can every think that 31 fps is at all playable. ah, those were the days....
Ok... about 1.6 through steam... why is it that steam no longer accepts the "opengl" mode? It forces me to play through "software" mode and it looks like im playing the original doom... any1 know whats going on?
