Nice, glad you liked the demo video. I'm actually working on a follow-up to this post entitled "Another Look At HDR" which will be a walkthrough of the Half-Life 2: Lost Cost HDR tech demo. Keep an eye out for it later in the week.

Great looking site by the way – I found it via CSS Beauty.

We just moved our studio into that old school in South Oshawa that they converted into jam-space, so since we're actually getting more serious about it, I feel kinda guilty spending almost $1000 on a video card… especially when I still have to get an Xbox 360 and a new HDTV to go along with it.

Heh.

I never played the original DOD. Actually, the only HL mod I played was Counter Strike, and that was pretty short lived.

There seems to be mixed emotions in regards to DODS – a lot of the dudes like you that played the shit out of the original are complaining about about the flood of n00bs since it's getting some much attention right now. There isn't really any guidance at all, so you just jump in and most people don't realize it's not a 'spray and pray' game. Aw well, give it a month or two and all those dudes will be gone.

Have you got your machine up to speed yet? Pick up a 7800?

The original DoD was the first game that I played competitively online, so I have really fond memories of it.

It's awesome to get to see the old maps done up all nice and shit… too bad Halo 2 is my only online love.
