Source is the name of the new engine by Valve. They just ported Half-Life to that engine so it looks better. A digital remastering if you will.

Namely Half-Life with Half-Life 2's engine. Nice.

Well since this thread is alive and kicking, might as well give you guys the latest news.

 

Valve has sent Vivendi Release Candidate 5 earlier this week, hopefully this is the last one. Apparantly they were down to 3 show stopping bugs but let's all hope it's fixed now. And don't worry about that lawsuit thing and the fact that Vivendi has the right to hold it off for 6 months, they DON'T want to do that since they would lose a lot of money.

Some more news (yes, it's a double post, I'm addicted to them now):

Well the rumors are swirling that Half-Life 2 is just about done. As you guys know we carried a story a little while ago mentioning that Valve was submitting release candidates to Vivendi doing their final bughunting. Word has it that Valve has submitted RC5 recently addressing just a couple of bugs. Assuming those are fixed and nothing more is found in further testing we could be looking at a gold announcement in the very near future. The guys at CSNation, HL2Fallout, and even the former GoneGold guy are all saying this.

 

This is of course assuming VU doesnt hold the game up in court. But given the last couple of glimpses we've had of VU's financial situation they probably arent very eager to do that.

 

Basically the rumors are that we can expect a gold announcement in the coming days.
