I'd also like to add that ITS HALFLIFE 2!!! That game is so old!!! Why in god's name can't they get it to run flawlessly on the PS3 ><; Why is EA the only company having these problems LOL


HL2 is a few years old, but Episode 2 is only two months old. They didn't just use exactly the same engine, they added plenty of effects, used much more detailed textures, models, and shaders, and had a lot more enemies on the screen at once. Here's a quote from the article:

While framerate issues aren't as problematic in Half-Life 2 and Episode One, Episode Two suffers a great deal, especially during the episode's larger battles.

So it seems they didn't have much trouble getting HL2 to run, the problems were mainly in EP2.
