   well, you can either check
   
   www.gamespy.com
   www.gamespot.com
   www.electronicsboutique.com
   www.gamestop.com
   www.3dgamers.com
   www.ausgamers.com
   
   www.half-life2.com
   www.steampowered.com
   
   OR you can just open up steam, where you will be assaulted with "HALF LIFE TWO GOLD! be the first to play it nov 16"
   
   trust me, its a done deal this time.

   depends if you build it urself or buy one
   
   cheapest is def to build urself!!
   
   3 things, good cpu, good ram and good graphics card.
   
   i would recomend:
   
   ATI X800 series graphics
   Athlon64 FX series.. (something like a 3400)
   PC3200 DDR, with a low latency timings etc
   
   get a setup along those guidelines and you'll be sorted!! ;)

   dont even worry about doom 3.. farcry is better (by far)
   
   word on the streets : if you can run farcry, you can run hl2
   so head over to fileplanet and get a demo of farcry.. FARCRY FARCRY

    like i've been saying, you might wanna look into a fast processor before a good vid card.
    
    you can go farther on a 4GHz pentium than you can with a Radeon 9800
    
    but otherwise, check www.pricewatch.com
    they got some cheap video cards (cashwise)

    Well i get a good 30fps on one of my PC's, here's the spec as a guideline:
    
    
    AthlonXP 3200+ (Not 64bit)
    1gb Crucial Ballistix CL2 NON-PARITY DDR400
    Radeon 9800xt
    SB Live!
    WinXP Pro SP1
    MSI KT600 Mobo
    
    
    So you see, not a very good spec but still plays Half Life / FarCry buetifully, in this mode:
    
    1024x768
    4x AA
    High setting for all textures / detail settings
    No Vsync
