| Description: | I love HDR. These are the same models and almost same textures as HL2, and it makes so much of a difference...and I just love this shot so much. (Taken on a 7800 GT, not mine though) Just like to clear up some misbeliefs. I hate ALL consoles. I like PCs, | ||||||||||

| Five for Sony slam. >=3 | ||||||
| I Love Dog. | ||||||
| I see much beauty | ||||||
| never played HL2, but its apparently pimp | ||||||
| |||||||
| Awesome, I love the music, the screenshot is awesome, and I hate sony so good job! BTW can you tell me where to get the music. Thx :D | ||||||
| This ytmnd wins. Why? Because it's image and sound, and it's image and sound which has an impact on you. Ytmnd is getting closer and closer to simply being micromedia flash with the new sync in and crap which basically just makes it like a flash movie, so ytmnd has no originality. But this is good. This is great. | ||||||
| I wish my TES Oblivion would look like that. | ||||||
| Wow, bloom. Who cares? | ||||||
| ^ stfu. | ||||||
| HDR is going to push it to the limit. (I wish your text weren't obscuring your nice picture. Maybe you could just overlay some text on the image in a less conspicuous spot instead. Oh, and center it, don't tile.)
| ||||||
| -4 for hud | ||||||
| SnoopJeDi the whole point of this ytmnd is not the HDR... | ||||||
| "Rendered today, Sony." I don't get it, what's the slam about? (yes I hate Sony, but must have missed something =P) 5'd for awesome anyway. | ||||||
| This deserves ten for the line "Rendered today, Sony" | ||||||
| i dont understand what the sony joke is about, did sony say hdr could only be done on ps3 or something? | ||||||
| muv the teckst lol its in the way | ||||||
| whats the mech | ||||||
| Beautiful. | ||||||
| big deal | ||||||
| Deseved a high rank for the photo and the music. | ||||||
| because the ps3 is $600 and its a piece of sh*t | ||||||
| It says rendered today (rendered on a PC). Sony can't do that today. | ||||||
| because the ps3 is $600 and its a piece of sh*t | ||||||
| You need a ripper called GCFScape to get the music from steam games. | ||||||
| lol fanboys -10 | ||||||
| 1 Because everyone bashes a video game system that's not even out, idiots. OMGz0r 600$$$ how about the people that want it will buy it. Just because the XBOX and Wii are cheaper doesn't make them a most buy. God damn fanboys. Nice graphics by the way. | ||||||
| Who the hell said anything about fanboys? Idiots. | ||||||
| Thank you SO MUCH for putting this song on here...I uninstalled HL2 and I realized a good use for this. | ||||||
| i'm pro ps3, and i think the graphics will be even better than this, but i can't argue with half life 2. those graphics are out of this world | ||||||
| I came. | ||||||
| Screenshot of HL2 + Bashing something you can't afford = 5? | ||||||
| By the way, I'm not denying the beauty of the Source engine--I just don't think your screenshot of it is worth anything above a one. | ||||||
| 5 cause it's HL2 -1 cause you are a loser for bashing sony, but 1 one for trying | ||||||
| looks real good
| ||||||
| 0.0 | ||||||
| 5 for bashing sony. | ||||||
| Half-Life 2 wins, and so do you, good sir. | ||||||
| Wow, awesome. | ||||||
| title made me LMAO because it was so lame and nerdy. | ||||||
| I only hope Elder Scrolls 5 has lighting like that. | ||||||
| I get the same f*ckin picture on my 6800GS, same shader model, some pixel shader. I will NEVER buy a console beyond my POS xbox | ||||||
| The source engine is absolute sh*t.
HDR usually makes levels light up brighter than the sun.
I love how you are easily wowed by a lighting trick. | ||||||
| I love how you downvote the ytmnd based on fact and not how good it actually is. | ||||||
| Half-Life 2's graphics are not impressive from a technical aspect... | ||||||
| Print screen = mega greatness | ||||||
| "Screenshot of HL2 + Bashing something you can't afford = 5?" - To get a computer to render that quality at a consistant framerate costs come big bucks. easily 3-4x the ammount of a PS3. | ||||||
| I don't really get the slam, but it's pissing off fanboys like Tac0-Suprem3, so I give it a 5. Wii will rock you. | ||||||
| UNIVERSE TIER | ||||||
| wow ppl who r downvoting this with comments have the stupidist excuses ive ever seen... "-4 for hud"....... "whats the mech"............................ wow... | ||||||
| ez 5. hl2 dm = best game evar btw | ||||||
| MorphingJar, you can build a PC to render a mere HL2 game smoothly for about $400. So more expensive than a PS3? No. The game still doesn't look as good regardless, but PC is the powerhouse either way. | ||||||
| sex | ||||||
| Just hearing that music gives me a hard-on. I love HL2. | ||||||
| "The source engine is absolute sh*t. HDR usually makes levels light up
brighter than the sun. I love how you are easily wowed by a lighting
trick." -- Alright, you can diss Source when you write one that's better. Let's see it? That's what I thought. Great Site. Scoring: 3 - Huge HL2 fan. 1 - Sony bash, instant win. 1 - Great screenshot. Good timing. Woulda been better with the hud off, but nonetheless awesome. | ||||||
| That's awesome. Screw the downvoters, they have no idea how complicated and advanced HDR is. | ||||||
| i always turn off HDR. it looks cool but its like staring into the sun, insta-pain. anyhow just a rendering trick nothin' special to it. I'd take dynamic shadows any day. | ||||||
| Good music, good pic, win for HL2, win for slamming Sony, big 5. | ||||||
| Very True | ||||||
| Sony is WAY behind the curve, 5'd for truth. | ||||||
| Wow..... | ||||||
| not a GTX? | ||||||
| lol fanboys | ||||||
| mgs4
f*ck you | ||||||
| as much as i love good graphics this is pretty corny. I get the joke and everything but its the description that makes me go wtf. And the music... | ||||||
| For those of you who don't know that music is from HL2 vanilla. | ||||||
| Sony just got teh ownzorz. | ||||||
| Gyro567- Even if the engine is 2 years old, HL2's graphics are the most impressive from an artistic standpoint. I still don't see a game that actually looks more realistic. | ||||||
| what?...wait, what? | ||||||
| Didn't Hideo Kojima pretty much own every pc fanboy out there when he showed real time footage of MGS f*cking 4? | ||||||
| "1 Because everyone bashes a video game system that's not even out, idiots.
OMGz0r 600$$$ how about the people that want it will buy it. Just because
the XBOX and Wii are cheaper doesn't make them a most buy. God damn
fanboys. Nice graphics by the way."
ps3 sucks anyway so stfu | ||||||
| 5 for Sony bash and image. | ||||||
| SUPER SLAM | ||||||
| PHI - Wow the PS3 sucks and it's yet to be released to the public. You're obviously a XBOX 360 FANBOY so you stfu and die, sir. | ||||||
| I may be defending the PS3 but I'm sure as hell not siding with them. How about we wait till all three are out? | ||||||
| Maybe if you went outside once in a while to watch a sunset you'd see how realistic this is. Also, HL2 is impressive because these graphics are superior to Oblivion, and yet it runs at a MUCH, MUCH better framerate than Oblivion. Valve made the most efficient engine EVAR. I'm not a console fan at all, I love PCs. I bought my $800 pc because it can browse the web, let me chat with friends, edit together videos, PLAY AWESOME GAMES ON A SIDENOTE, and can be upgraded for the future. | ||||||
| The reason why the 'Rendered today, Sony' is funny is not because of the price. No. It's because during the Technical Demonstration at E3, they diddn't have it live, they had a pre-rendered demo of it. A movie if you will. | ||||||
| Sony should have seen Crysis at E3. That's why PCs are superior. | ||||||
| Pissing off fanboys like Tac-0-Priceless. I have nothing against the PS3 tho, I just like this because of the music. | ||||||
| HL2 has the greatest engine that doesn't overkill my comp. | ||||||
| It's soo beutiful!! *eyes melt* | ||||||
| Amazing graphics, amazing music. | ||||||
| man source engien f*ckin pwns you really do love hl2 as mcuh as I do lol. | ||||||
| HTTP 404: FUNNI NOT FOUND. | ||||||
| HL2 with HDR and the 2Gb texture pack add-on = FTW | ||||||
| Its true... | ||||||
| -1 for "what the hell does sony have to do with it" | ||||||
| Goddamn, I wish my ATI X1300 could pull that graphical awesome-ness off. PC-gaming FTW! | ||||||
| WOW. *Brain Explodes* | ||||||
| Boom! Graphicshot! | ||||||
| I'd have bought the PC version but I'm too poor to get a gaming PC. *sniff* | ||||||
