I just downloaded it, and I can't run it, because my graphics card doesn't support shaders. God damnit, I wanna play this game, I've heard so many good things about it!
Fuck you, NVIDIA, for making a card that was designed to suck. Fuck you in the ass. :flamer: Can't play SCII, can't play Portal... Hell, this card makes Halo PC look like shit!
Geforce mx4 is like... the cheap version of some of the fathering video cards. I don't remember much below geforce 4. I don't know what you expect from a 9 year old video budget card :bleh:

IIRC, even the fastest Geforce MX 4 was only half as fast as the slowest Geforce Ti 4.

Interestingly, this means you will be able to play Black Mesa for free because it requires any source engine game, including Portal.

Black Mesa is a complete remake of Half Life 1 in the Source engine. It is much more than the lame Half Life: Source that Valve came out with - it is all maps re-made using source assets.

I'd strongly recommend playing this for anyone who hasn't played Half Life, once it comes out.

All the scientists don't look the same!!! There is no Dr. Kleiner?
Was there actually any difference at all with the Half Life: Source and the original? I did not really care about the graphics. The gameplay was fun.

I'm pretty sure they just straight up ported the old game into a new physics system. The graphics did not receive even the slightest upgrade. It's not worth however much they are charging for it.

Free with my copy of Half Life 2?

Graphics got the upgrade from the source engine, but they didn't do anything to improve the textures.

I know, my friend actually spend 20 dollars on the game and when they announced it was free, he curse-spreed so loud, that even the bus driver heard and pulled over the bus :D

I wasn't sure if it was better to revive this or let it go by so I waited a few days. Then I changed my mind since no one seemed to talk about it.

Edit: I see what you did there :lol: I feel like that too.
