Yep. Started playing as soon as my copy was unlocked, which was about 5pm. Some screenshots for you guys to feast your eyes on. No real big spoilers, but I'm leaving a big gap just in case...so if you don't want to know anything about the game, leave now


























First pic is the HEV suit. It's come such a long way from HL1, both in terms of the story and the graphics.

Second pic - haha yes these guys are back, but you're not supposed to shoot them anymore. This one actually recharges your HEV suit.

Thrid pic - DX9 water effects
