Hmm, that's interesting... I thought Halflife was released significantly
*after* Quake 2? (And I'm told it runs on a "heavily modified" Quake 2
game engine too - which would seem to require it being much newer than
Quake 2 itself...)

A year later, but yeah. Both were first presented at the 1997 E3.

Oh, OK then...
I guess because *I played* Halflife years after I played Quake 2, I got
the impression that Halflife was a much newer game. Certainly it seemed
more sophisticated to me.
(But then, from what little I saw of Doom, Quake 2 certainly seems far
more sophisticated.)
