Half-Life 2 confirmed for Summer Launch Newell at WinHEC

Have you been checking out Neowin's weblog for WinHEC? No then you would of missed this bit of Info then.

ATi today launced the X800 graphics card and had machine exhibits ready for attendees to see the “Ruby” demo. The Ruby demo has been released onto CD for attendees to view and see the effects that the X800 can render in real time. The demo was very impressive but was not a touch on the demo by Gabe Newell from Valve. This stole the whole keynote to actually see some new footage from Half Life 2. Again we got the whole video which is approximately 3 minutes long and as soon as we find somewhere with firewire we’ll get it on here asap because it’s one to watch!

Gabe claimed the X800 is 40% faster than the GeForce 6800 for Half Life 2 and confirmed that we’ll see Half Life 2 this summer
