So I go on Steam to play a little starwars2 on CS 1.6 (I was playin a little last night with the steam) and it shows a media part in the games section and underneath it says halflife 2 movies? Amazing! This is at 11pm. When did you guys notice it?

The first video released I guess. 'G-Man' is what its called. I'm about to watch it. I'll edit this post afterwards and update it.

/edit

It shows G-man doing different faces and talking. It shows the realism of the HL2 engine I guess. Its just G-man standing there talking to you with a black screen. Creepy style you know? Preddy interesting though. Check it out if you havent already!

    My thoughts are pretty much summed up <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=10&t=38285&st=0&#entry524554' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    Everyone tends to ignore Doom. Whilst he is obviously intelligant and adds value and insight to these forums, he is inherently biased.

    So SUYF doom.

    The video is a direct feed. It is MUCH higher quality than the e3 videos. It is approaching the quality of in game. You may notice that AA was turned off so you can see the full detail of the model (eg. he has acne.). As a result his left neck has jaged edges. This was done on purpose. The current conjecture is that they will release one video each day or so. When they run out of the e3 stuff they will release NEW MEDIA.

    So Doom, go back under that rock and let people who tend to be excited about this sort of stuff be excited. Instead of <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->*blah* *blah* cry cry its the same thing, not that good anyway its all stupid DOOM 3 ROXOR my boXORS.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Notice how I didn't mention DOOM III in any post nor have I shown nothing but anticipation toward Half-Life 2...

    I'm merely disappointed that they didn't give us the good stuff first. If it would have been the whole video, or hell even just the zoo part at first, I would've been happy.
