A new section starts in the same issue that doesn’t exist anywhere else: In “Sneak Peek” we invite several readers to the editorial office, where they can then play a brand new game in detail before it’s released. The Germany-exclusive test for Half-Life 2 was a board: 16 bulging pages, great design, elaborate text and a hammer rating of 96 points.Įven if Half-Life 2 the cover topic par excellence, something is also happening in terms of content. There is also an extensive video report on the DVD with exclusive game scenes. In the extensive 16-page XXL test, Thomas Weiß and Heinrich Lenhardt pulled out all the stops, and the article was well received by the readers.
The wait was worth it, Half-Life 2 gets the best rating since Wing Commander 3 and sets umpteen new standards.
PC Games wins the bid and sends a grinning team to Seattle. After the hyped shooter leaked unfinished in October 2003 and then postponed for a whole year, the time has finally come in 2004: Valve invites one magazine per country to test the long-awaited game of recent years. By far the most popular topic at this time: Half-Life 2. Holowaty is best known to readers as a frantic reporter who tirelessly scours development studios around the world and fills the DVD with video reports. Christoph Holowaty inherits the post of editor-in-chief from Christian Müller, he now shares the role with Petra Maueröder (who, by the way, becomes Petra Fröhlich in the same year). The staff carousel is spinning again this year.
