So the engine seems fairly beefed from its last iteration. All shadowing is dynamic now, at least on higher settings. Water looks like it has a flow to it. The lighting / shadowing is the best yet on the Source engine. Uses all 4 of my cores and was at least 60+ fps on my Q6600 / GTX 260 on the highest settings.

Played for like over 3 hours, haven't touched the singleplayer yet really besides the opening. Also the Super 8 thing in extras is pretty neat.

That didn't take long...

Is co-op short?

Edit: Are there more than 4 areas?

Mussels and I played coop last night. Microphones are necessary. Some levels were like "I GOT IT FIGURED OUT WHAT ARE YOU DOING." How Steam users figure this out without mics, I have no idea.

Also, I got the full Valve Complete Pack thanks to Valve, as I have 36 potatoes.

seriously though, this is really funny. Steve Merchant (as always) does a great job, and the writing is good as well. obviously the graphics and puzzles are improved - but the dark humor is what attracted me to the original so well, and they did a great job keeping the funny

we dunno. and that was 2-3 hours worth, so i dont call that short for the less important campaign.


and yes, mics are definitely needed. it defaults to voice activated too, which can cause problems.

I think he's saying Valve gave him their "Complete Pack" for free, as he racked up 36 potatoes in the indie pot sack thing there...
