Half-Life 2 for Xbox ?

Posted by Dev at 14:33 10/6/2003.

Lots of confusion at the moment surrounding the issue of Half-Life 2 for the Xbox. An article published yesterday from the Puget Sound Business Journal suggested that unlike CS:CZ there will not be an Xbox version of HL2. Microsoft's Xbox product manager David Hufford had this to say:

As of now, Half-Life 2 is not going to be on the Xbox ... Valve is sending us mixed messages.

Today however GameSpyDaily confirmed that there will be an Xbox version of Half-Life 2. VALVe's Doug Lombardi said that the game was in development but no firm 'shipping date' had been announced. Microsoft are yet to comment.

Don't forget that if you have any questions for Doug Lombardi & VALVe you can ask them in our newest feature.

It cant look anything like as good as the PC version on the Xbox though, my bets they release a completely different (arcade 3rd person shooter) game with a different engine, under the same name. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

you not seen the preview for cs:cz on Xbox... looks very similar to the cs:cz pc previews going around. I would of thought with HL2 they will do as near to it as they can. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

It'll look fine on XBox because it's not lumbered with a slow operating system or anything else. Being DirectX based the XBox will handle it fine, matching medium spec (AMD 1800+/GF4) machines for pace. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

halo 2 runs fine on xbox and has similar graphical standards to hl2 and doom3. (probably somewhere above hl2 and a bit below doom3 in pure processor intensive schenanigans). Halo, and golden eye have proven fps can work really well on consoles. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
