Until more is realized, we cant really say whos engine is gonna do what. I've been reading and seeing pictures on UR 3 engine for some time. Its awsome looking stuff, then again, so were the cinematic concepts for nvidias 5700 cards back in 2001-2002. Until this technology is coded and...

Sounds pretty interesting, though its all up in the air. At the end of HL2, the last black sequence, especially where the G-man gets off, does indeed seem like a train. At the beginning of HL2, the passenger says to you "i didnt see you get on", which signifies gordon kinda appearing on the...

Ive already seen a friend i met online playing MMo's/fps who uses a speed hack. Dont get me wrong, we all know of the suits sprint option,but my friend, well, its quite obvious its a bit more than that... Either way, as long as a program is bound by the mathimatical parameters of coded...

In your imagination. There were only test/alpha maps. They didnt make the finally cut, though if rnough people keep dying to see them, expect the mod community to cook somthing up

I gotta back up spar on this one. The original posters idea is ok, thats it. It is anything new and thats fine, he has some interesting ideas and thats it. Now trying to sum up gaming when HL2 just opened your eyes is like barging in on the rogue guild while your a mage and trying to...

the boards of canada are dope. ever listen to clouddead? first album only of course As for the G-man, i believe valve just went out of there way to make him so mysterious and odd, sort of twilight zone style, to prepare for this totally off beat, iniverse controlling, time manipulating...

options, enable dev console, have fun

Yea the game changed from that time indeed. In that scene you mentioned, it almost sounded like eli may have died... However, that is also the scene where combine burst in on there lab/the scene where gordon is "starring" at her. On the Citadel note, i think there are several citadels...

Indeed. People are just used to many of the games and medi formats of the current world, which often deeply describe and provide solid substance for them to work off of. I though the story was just fine, personally. I wasnt expecting huge elaborations or cheaply placed story references to...

I thought the citadel and the final sequences were pretty awsome. Valve didnt feed us long chunks of overthought out story. They expanded on the first game and let us soak everything up in game. The ending almost seems like Gordon is some universe jumpin bounty hunter or somthin.. I love...

Summed up my feelings exactly

Everyone complaining that the game has no story have obviously failed to see what Valve what trying to do. Every...other...fricken...games in this age, with all the perks of enomous dialogue, huge budgets ect, all do exactly what you guys mention. Many of them start with you involved (HL1)/...

Yea, the game seems to just churn out scene after scene of cinematic gameplay... Many of the professional reviews i read did have one thing right, the gameplay and matching settings/themes for the moment change and feel very dynamic despite the obvious technical linearities... The game may...

It uses everything you have and then some.

Well, all i can say is, if you took the day off for this game, you should have preloaded it long ago, or backed a lost one up. Anyuone expecting to preload yesterday/today was in for trouble with all the unlocking and bandwith going on... sorry mate, hope yah get to play it soon
