One reason the plants look bad is because they're too bright. They need to get darker near the bottom because of shadows. And the ground needs detailed texturing. And the dude's skin is too orange It'll come out after HL2, so it won't seem as badass as it did when we first saw it, and that's too bad.

Read this (link on the Shack elsewhere): http://www.gamespy.com/e32003/preview/pc/1002952/

Two versions of the game for low and high end PCs. 30 square miles of area to explore (ie. non-linear). Sound pretty cool to me.

These look like crap compared to the shots they were releasing earlier.

Might be a good way to hype a game, release a bunch of shots that are touched up and semi rendered so they look amazing. Promise good gameplay, and then have people drooling over it. And then release the game and it looks average:(

hopefully these were just running a crappy computer, or with settings down or something

Great looking game. Let's just hope this doesn't turn into another New World Order fiasco.

By the time it comes out, it will probably look fairly average. I hope it's got good gameplay.
