This is just a rumour at the moment but I've had a few emails says that a technology demo for Half Life 2 has leaked to the web. I am off to do some investigation! Looks like another head will roll if this is true.

Update: Well I've found some links for a supposed Half Life 2 technology demo but as the links are being hit hard I've haven't been able to download the demo! So we can not confirm anything yet! But I did get an email from someone claiming to be from Valve! The short of it: don't post links or we'll sue your ass. Since HL2 is intellectual property of Valve Software we will not post any links to any source - regardless if this rumour is true or not. Any comments containing links or instructions will be deleted.
