Half-Life 2 source code leaked?
« on: October 02, 2003, 06:59:59 PM »
See the thread on Slashdot.  Can someone with coding experience verify this?  

Man, I'd give my starboard nut if someone would port this over... :ak47:

Doesn't really matter if it's real or not.  Anybody releasing anything that resembled HL2 would have Valves' lawyers jumping up and down on their remains...

There's also the fact that HL2 is so big and Windows-specific a port to other systems might well just be impossible.

Yup, it's relying on DirectX quite heavily from what I've read, specifically version 9.
