What? It's only been in development for one and a half years, you really can't expect them to finish it in this short amount of time. Give them at least 2 more years. Very Happy

Valve are constantly tweaking the source engine, I think they have a separate team working on it at all times. We got a slew of updates with the previous releases and whilst they weren't revolutionary, they didn't need to be (and some, including Valve, would contest that they couldn't for scalability).

OMG....somebody increased the bob size and made her look more like a cheap hocker/porn star...
Za improvements.... Shocked and originality. "Easy on the hardware", I say take it all of while your at it.
On-topic: The source engine is pretty modular and they could still add a lot of tech to it. As for the next engine I hope they keep it well optimized(as in decent resource consumption).

well , some games age better than others
dark engine for example looks as good imho as the unreal engine used in Deux Ex
but fuck it , Half-Life still is Half-Life in my book , would want it any other way (ok , i'll make an exception for Black Mesa Source ) , that anaconda still looks aces .

Err, the term "abandonware" usually refers to old released software that isn't sold or supported anymore, or for which the copyrights have lapsed. Maybe you meant "vaporware"?

And if so, I'm pretty sure that Valve does not consider HL2E3 to be "vaporware," since they're busy working on it every day.

Valve won't come with new engine since Source is still one of the best engines available today, and not only graphic wise, also performance wise. They still implement new features and stuff, engines don't make games look better, it's the textures that do.


PC: Yes. Console: No.

I still don't get why you'd say that. By all estimations, they're cranking away on it every day. What else do you think they're doing, exactly?

Remember, that Valve does appear to have some loose division of labor (for instance, the TF2, L4D, and Portal teams are all separate groups), and the group that did the previous episodes is the same bunch of folks working on Episode 3.

I just don't get what indication there is that it's not a priority for them. It is because they don't talk about it everyday? Because that's just typical Valve media shyness...

20GB actually, lol.

It really does look stunning (I'm not a big fan of the new Alyx model though) - a definitely worthy upgrade.

@Overlord123

Nope, sorry mate.. that's not the latest one. The latest one is version 10. Check this thread;

The model for Grigori is absolutely horrible/retarded in that "mod". It gives him a fucking monk robe.
