Those, who had managed to lay their hands on one of the most-recent Half-Life 2 builds dated September 27, 2003 said that the game was hardly ready for the release. According to some gamers, who have seen the Half-Life 2 in action, the levels are not fully prepared, but the graphics engine works practically flawlessly on the ATI RADEON 9800 PRO hardware and there is sense in benchmarks published earlier this year by various media using the Half-Life 2 game. Another awaited FPS title is John Carmack?s Doom III. The legend is said to come more than ten years after the original Doom ? in 2004. From what we do know about the Doom III is that it will also heavily use modern technologies like Pixel and Vertex Shaders as well as stencil-buffers for shadows.
