HL2 & ATI Update
- ATI and Valve Team up to Showcase the best of 3D Gaming
- ATI introduces RADEON 9800 XT and RADEON 9600 XT
The PR of course announced that Half-Life 2 is shipping with the 9800XT which really isnt very far from hitting the shelves. Will find out if the early cards will just carry coupons for a free copy of HL2 or if Valve really is just a smidge away from release. More late tonight! Unless of course they make me sign papers saying I cant. Doubtful though. You can find a review of the new 9800XT card on Tech-Report by the way.
Update by Maarten: Various press releases and this ATI page (thanks Conan) mention that Half-Life 2 wont be in the box, but will be shipped later. You can opt to download it through Steam as well.
