Half-Life 2The latest news update when you start Steam gives the confirmation that the new Lost Coast level and a demo of Half-Life 2 for the Xbox will be shown at the E3 Expo:

We'll also be showing off some products at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo. Half-Life 2 Xbox will be shown in the Xbox area of Microsoft’s booth.

It's unclear who will publish HL2 for the XBox; if the game is released after 31 August it won't be Vivendi Universal Games as their contract with Valve expires on that date, and no new publisher has been announced as of yet.

We'll see more of the Lost Coast at the E3 also, the update says; the new level will appear at the Games for Windows section of the show.

There is no official release date for Lost Coast, but a German games magazine carried a recent exclusive that said it would be released this month

Gamers might worry though that their systems are just not high-spec enough to play it after Doug Lombardi unequivocally confirmed that it will require the highest of high-end systems in a March interview with G4TV.
