This, of course, after I bought Half Life:2 about a month ago. Oh well. Oh, yeah, I have a Radeon, so it does affect me. Or would have. Bastards.

This is great news. I got HL2 with my Radeon purchase, and now I get Lost Coast as well.

Groovy. Cool

The Lost Coast was free for everyone who bought HL2.

ATI's latest sucks bad when compared to nVidia. Way to go AMD!

I dunno if I would go that far. For those interested in some 'real user based' assessments of the HD 2900XT, have a look at these:

And for hardcore mods done on the card, ViperJohn is the man:

The deal only includes the Deathmatch mode, not Half Life 2 itself. And Lost Coast is a short graphic demo they produced when they started to support high-dynamic lighting. I don't know anyone who considers it a game as most demos are longer than it is. I certainly don't recall it ever being marketed as a game.

But at least with HL2:DM, you can pony up $10 and get Garry's Mod 9 which is amazingly fun (and requires an existing game which already has the HL2 graphic engine).
