Testing - HL2 Episode 1
 Our Half-Life 2 Episode 1 benchmark consists of Gordon emerging into the streets to find ant lions and Combine soldiers fighting. Gordon proceeds to kill a mother ant lion and lots of baby ant lions while generally blowing up anything in the way. The gravity gun is used to push a couple of cars over ant lion dens, then some more Combine soldiers are killed. The timedemo ends after Gordon enters a small room and sets off a mine. Overall, the timedemo is representative of gameplay. All of the in-game graphical settings were set to maximum including HDR lighting. Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic Filtering were controlled through a batch file which changes the in-game settings. After the batch has finished running, the average frames per second for each test is output to a file. For each test, the timedemo was run three times and the results were averaged.
