nope, combine are normal humans mended with machines, thous huge gas masks are so they can breath on the combine homeworld which is unbreathable by normal humans without a breathing apparatis, while thous things your talking about ARE human, they arn't human combine solderrs, the soliders are almost normal, basicly there like the spartians of halo, alot of surgery and drugs, and mending with machine is a combine ( the leaked beat acctually had a "naked I guess you could say combine soldider, and a sence where barney steals the clothes from the dead "naked" combine ) as for the un breathablke air, we know that thanks to DR.Breen

So shadows make a game now?  That's news to me.

They help it a lot... Perhaps the crap shadows aren't that visible in HL2, but when you play CS:S some shadows are beyond weird.

And its not about the game, its JUST about the graphics...

Granted the shadows may not be the greatest, everything else is though.

You know, I never got to see the Hydra, what the hell is up with that. And you know in the 'Beta' that map at dusk with the zombies on the plank and the crow you can beat to death. Never saw that either. Or the boat with those robots.

You're going to be beat down for bringing that stuff up. ;)

1. Hydra removed

2. Plank Scene: Was that even ever considered in?

3. Robots on Boat: Wait, what robots on boat?

Dr. Thodt, the hydra got removed because they couldn't create the AI for it, at least thats what I believe I read. I never even heard about that other stuff.

I've heard two stories about this. One is that they looked amazing but were really easy to kill so they took them out. Another was that they were insanely hard to kill so they took them out. Eh, go figure. One of those is probably right, my guess is the first one.

Ok then, paper cd cases....... looks beautiful?

Anything Half-Life 2 at the point that was posted, just before the release, was beautiful. Especially the CDs and knowing that the game was indeed going to be released anytime soon.

I have a big problem with the brightness.

Even if I set it to 1.6, I can't even read the third line of text. If I turn my monitor's brightness to max, I can only read the bottom line (faintly at that).

No matter how much I adjust the brightness in the Catalyst control centre, HL2 remains just as dark.

How do I increase the brightness/gamma in HL2??? :(

Using Catalyst 4.12, control centre 1.0.1796.585
