Doom3 and Half-Life2 Release Dates

[SiMoNsAyS]

for what i've read D3 will be in stores on late august and HL2 has been shortly delayed another time for late summer (end of september or so). will d3 ship more because of it "early" date?? will d3 be bait by hl2?? still all of this it's unofficial but as a final personal impression i've wondering how polls like this can be done:

Did you (or will you) buy a new graphics card for Half-Life 2?

are we crazy?? how can we spend 50€/$ on a game and 400€/$ to play it??!!

[XtremeMaC]

true that's why i'm going to pay $200 for cheap but okay graphics cards and run at average resolution

Must be the beta leaks, I think. The final isn't even out of the CD fabs (atleast that's what we're led to believe).

they're out and about. It is released in retail stores Friday. So it's out of Fabs atleast the first bunch of em. Though the links if it's been for a few weeks it's most likely a beta. If it's last few days, perahps final.

after today all the versions in s*******.org where betas leaked but today the original 3 cds version (~1700mb) it's posted, it includes a keygen that means it's the final version with key check. i'm waiting for a review in a few hours otherway i would have to download, test 1 day and if it runs ok with my system specs i'll buy it the 13th that it's released in spanish

i didint.. i waited by as people payed $850AU + for Radeon 9800 vpus.

and scored a nice 9800 pro 128meg for $360AU only 2 weeks before doom3 is ready to go .. HL2 isnt to far off either.

not like the pros are any slower than the Xts... lol and i oced this b***h up to 425mhz core and it has 600mhz 2.5ns gddr2 - oced that to 700

this card is a Beast !!
