The guys from X-bit Labs take a look at how HL2: Episode 2 performs on today's entry-level, mainstream and high-end graphics cards.
The described innovations do not lift the graphics quality of the Half-Life 2 series up to a new level, yet the new technologies have enabled the developer to make Episode Two more appealing and attractive than the predecessor. Coupled with high-resolution textures and an excellent facial gesture system, Half-Life 2: Episode Two features first-class visuals. For us, the game is just as good as, for example, BioShock and even surpasses it at times as concerns the realism of the scene.
Check it out at X-bit Labs.
