HALF-LIFE 2 FOR CHRISTMAS?

Internet speculation is rife over a Half-Life 2 release this year

16:06 You've got to speculate to accumulate, a bloke once told me before losing his shirt at the bookies, and there's certainly a lot of speculation over Half-Life 2, with German magazine and website GameStar suggesting it will be out in time for Christmas.
Usually one needs to take such claims with a huge bag of salt, but maybe there's no smoke without fire.

We looked at the evidence. Gamestar claims to have information from a conference call from nVidia to business partners and analysts, and linking the game's release with its five year birthday in November.

What is surprising is the rumour states that Half-Life 2 will have a brand new engine designed by Valve from scratch, and not using the Quake 3 engine as previously anticipated. An Xbox version is also mooted, especially as the Microsoft machine has similar features to the current nVidia chips and that Valve founders learned the market know-how at Microsoft.

Valve, as we announced last May in our E3 interview, is creating a brand new 3D engine for Team Fortress 2 - which we now believe to be the same for Half-Life 2, and rumour has it, for the next incarnation of Counter-Strike. It's well known in the industry that graphics card manufacturers like ATI and nVidia have routinely have access to highly-secretive software to aid developmnt and compatibility with their next-generation cards, making a leak from highly-placed sources reasonably likely as a source.

All going well, we can cross our fingers for a winter release, but don't count the chickens yet. A good place to start, to whet your appetite, is to head along here and read our interview with the Valve guys last year.
