HL2 to HL1

Hi I'm new to the forums and was wondering if anyone knew if the Half Life 2 engine will be backwards compatible onto Half Life ? So Half Life could benefit from the physics and better graphics etc etc

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Many regards, Tom. :thumbs:

Valve is converting Half-Life to use the Source engine, which powers Half-Life 2. So, the short answer is yes.

Finally, a company that will put their hit game on their new engine! w00t!

thanks guys I can't wait I was replaying Half Life the other day and thinking how good it would be on the Half Life 2 engine, seriously can't wait for the game.

It is the calm before the storm...oh wait that doesn't make sense....

It's the storm before the calm.

It's the storm before the calm.

Yah that sounds about right
Or the calm was a few weeks ago and now it is the storm and this is just the begining of the storm...

 

[Fishlore]

that's probably more accurate. it seemed the calm has just passed us by. imagine them releasing one more vid with a release date at the end. That would turn this place upside down and back again. That would be the f-5 tornado after the hurricane. sorry the analogy bucket just dried up.

I think its just cus theres *finaly* a new date when it comes out, so people are hyped about it again, I know I am.

432 new members within a week. I can't remember when we hit 14,000 but it was less than a week ago. Shocking.

So many new members. So little common sense (about the search function).
