Triangle count for game characters

[pb1uk07]

Hello,
as part of a project i have to perform research into game characters. I was wondering where would be the best places to find the triangle counts for characters in half-life 2 and other current games on pc and other consoles e.g. new gta etc
Cheers

I think the Source engine has a 20,000 poly limit for all models, including character.
Most characters in Hl2 have a poly count between the 5 and 10 thousand.

"Next-Gen" characters (roughly) range from 10,000 to 30,000 poly's.
I bet Nico (GTA4) has a polycount somewhere around the 15,000 poly's max.
