Half-Life 2: Lost Coast, a single-player level custom-created to showcase High-Dynamic Range lighting (HDR) in the Source engine, is available now to all owners of HL2. As a technology showcase, Half-Life 2: Lost Coast's system requirements are very high. During installation, Steam will prompt you if your system does not meet the recommended configuration. We hope you enjoy it. |

Here's a few.
EDIT: Just played for about 5 minutes and this game taxes the hell out of my pair of 6600GT's!!!! |

Yes you have to have steam to even DL it.

I think your right about the higher textures and details. I also had the resolution set at 1280x1024. |

 I played and liked it, not as much as I was expecting.
As far as my graphics card I was running an ATI 9600 AIW at 800 X 600, just to see, and it was fine.
 There was a point were there was no fighting but all in all it was cool. Not to spoil for people who haven't played yet because they're still waiting for the damm thing to download. But the physics was cool when your in the church as it is shooked.
I say download, go do something else and come back and play on. |
