    What made you think it would be free?

    He prolly thought of "Lost Coast" who will be free.

    I liked the trailer, Its short and all but everything HL is enjoyable to me Maybe its short beacuse there shouldent be any major spoiler this time. (btw is the gun inside Alyx arm ?) Spell, download the large version and check for yourself

    I registered and downloaded it.

    It was really hard work.

    But its the exact same as the free streaming one.

    Yeah that's obviously a teaser, I mean it's too short to be a proper trailer. I like the fact that the stalkers will actually play some sort of part this time as oppose to just mere eyecandy..

    Damn, I really need to get Half-Life 2 setup..

    Way to short to say much about it except that it was far from impressing. Its wierd that they don't let out more media than this. I can only see about 2 reasons:

    - They are far from done with the game

    - The visuals are not worth showing

    It's a teaser, an apetizer, not a trailer. Two different things.

    Or they don't want to spoil new stuff? I pretty much ruined a lot of HL2 for myself by playing the leak and reading copious magazine scans; I want the Aftermath experience to be a more ambigeous enterprise on my part.

    And I think the animations look fine. However, if Alyx stomps on every unscripted ragdoll antlion like that, I'll be suprised and impressed.

    talk about negative nancys for fuck sake. Passing judgement on a minute teaser. Real smart.

    And Im with Tequila on this. No need for 10 trailers.

    It's a typical valve trailer. Shows you almost nothing. I wouldn't start crapping my pants with negativity JUST YET.

    what kind biased self delusion is going on here

    http://www.3dgamers.com/games/halflife2/downloads/

    The mean is 91mb if that's any indicator.

    It's fine when anybody bashes valve, but do it for the right reasons.

    Im not attacking what I saw in the teaser (theres barely anything in it anyway), but what they've release so far

    Take these pics for example, which are actually some of the better ones. Can it possibily get more plain and uninteresting? Considering that this should probably hype the game then its certainly not working on me.

    But sure, I'll wait n see. I just find it kinda sad that theres such a huge gap between hl2 n aftermath in the visual quality of what they've shown.

    What exactly are we supposed to do with media that Valve release then, if we're not allowed to preconceive some kind of opinion on the game with it? Just stare at it and go "gj valve", without engaging our thoughts? It's simple; everything that Valve have released thus far pertaining to Aftermath has been wholly unimpressive. If they don't want loads of people to pass negativity on it (which they are) then they shouldn't release such weak "teasers".

    The first shot looks ok, there's a sort of eerie fog thing going on.. and antlions in the city
