Valve Software’s soon to be released Half-Life2 is an eagerly-awaited First Person Shooter PC-based game. The HL2 predecessor, Half-Life, won more than 50 game-of-the-year awards and sold more than 8M copies worldwide.

There are some amazing graphics over at Planet Half-Life, such as the following…

…not sure if this is a scene from Half-Life2 or a demonstration of its graphics engine. Anyway it sure looks like a photograph to me. The game’s rendering, physics and AI are controlled by the “Source Engine”. A good review of the features of the Source Engine can be found at this link. You will probably have to upgrade your graphics card to play this game.

Nobody knows for sure, but there is speculation that the game will be released on September 3rd.
