Half Life 2 Fan-Made Remake - Unreal Engine 3 Versus Unreal Engine 4 Comparison

A couple of days ago, Polycount’s member ‘Logithx’ posted three screenshots of his fan-made version of Half Life in Unreal Engine 3. While those shots looked great, the modder claimed that he’d be moving his project to Unreal Engine 4 and today we’ve got the first comparison between these two versions.

lol You took the word right out of my mouth. :P

TitanUp4079d ago

i know both half life games done impressive things when they first release, i just don't see how half life 3 could possibly live up to those games, the expectations of half life 3 is going to be to high and people are going to be disappointed

randomass1714080d ago

They both look so nice, but UE4 is so much smoother looking. Unreal has come a long way.

john24080d ago

Indeed. It's pretty obvious that UE4 is a step higher than UE3, so here is hoping that developers will take full advantage of what the engine can do

randomass1714080d ago

The demo they showcased last year had some really nice effects. I'm hoping that consoles can take full advantage of it. :)

I'm surprised fans haven't tried to make an episode three themselves.

I bet someone is hard at work doing it. However Valve would probably drop the sue hammer fairly quick on them.

randomass1714080d ago

Valve is pretty liberal about fan interpretations of their properties. I just think fans would rather Valve make the game than anything else.

This was done by a fan WOW that is impressive O_O

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9239d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil39d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb39d ago (Edited 39d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

One of my biggest art heroes. His work and vision were truly one of a kind, and he’s been a huge inspiration to my own work. Such a heartbreaking loss.

Deeeeznuuuts121d ago

Remember seeing Dishonored for the first time when it released, fell in love with the art style straight away, so striking! And because of it, still holds up and will for years to come, RIP Viktor

JEECE121d ago

Yep I remember seeing some of the earliest concept art for Dishonored and hearing that the art director of Half-Life 2 was working on it and being excited.

And you are absolutely right, each of those games (HL2 and Dishonored) has a distinct art style that stands the test of time.

Relientk77121d ago

So sad to hear this. I absolutely love the Dishonored series and love the world and art style. It looks great and unique. I'm still hoping for a Dishonored 3

rokos121d ago

RIP Viktor love your work

Ethereal121d ago

Damn... Dishonored has such amazing art. RIP.
