Half-Life 2 & Doom 3

[Nomad25055]

True. While these games are going to require some serious hardware I for one am not all that worried. I have what I need figured out with the exception of one thing. The CPU. If i knew about what i would NEED to run them (more concerned with HL2. From what I have read/seen and heard Doom 3 will be the @!%$& to run) then I would be a little more at ease. All I have to do is wait for them to be released (I think HL2 will be out in September which will be a very nice birthday present :D). The trailer(s) that I have seen for each are enough to make me drool. I've seen some very impressive things done with the physics on HL2. And the gravity gun can be put to some very creative use from what I have seen. HL2 looks to be and all around great game. I haven't seen/heard too much about Doom 3 but from what I do know I feel I can safely say that it will be an impressive and somewhat frightening game. The light shading and shadows on that game are VERY realistic. I have a feeling that most of the games atmosphere will be drawn from this area. The rest will most likely be wasting all your ammo on something you THOUGHT you saw move in the shadows, and then having to run around with nothing but your fists :P .
