Methinks you may be doing it wrong.

I did watch it and yes, no doubt, it looks very realistic. But realism doesn't always make for fun gameplay. Half-life was a great game, in terms of realism, but when I played multiplayer, I almost ALWAYS went back to Q2. Which I why I was saying, we'll have to wait to actually see the game before judging whether it's a FUN game to play.

I forgot to mention that you need divx.. then again I said it was a divx video.. hope you didn't delete it before downloading divx.

Much better than the other video I had. Straight on shot and more resolution I noticed a lot of details I didnt before, such as the magnifying glass on the scientists desk, and the bump mapping on the wet city street. Only watched half so far, but I like it. The extra demo material at the beginning was also very cool. It's amazing how realistic the facial expressions of the gman were, and how objects act like they do in real life.

Yes it does, but you need to download the divx decoder. it's a codec for windows media player.

divx.com free download and most videos online now a days are converted to divx for size reasons so you'll eventually need it.
