I agree, every FPS needs a melee attack be it a crowbar or a buttsmack with your firearms. The Crowbar is needed for a last resort weapon if you use up your ammo, but the only time that happened to me in EP2 was the double Guardian Battle and that bent piece of steel is not going to help me...

This Vortal Coil here. It had good combat, The slow elevator is a old bit but still done well in that area. Only issue I have with it is the "don't kill the Guardian" bit, running from hole to hole what fun.

EP3, Headcrabs are OK (plus got to have zombies), Combine are Expected, but Antlions hell no. Headcrabs are really alien so I can't judge on the environments they could survive, I can see these guys thrive in the vacuum of space. But Antlions I just don't see in the cold rocky environment of EP3...

I agree with all of this, never used the SMG unless I empty the AR2 and auto switched to it. The Magnum though is the next best sniper weapon when used with the suit zoom. I killed a few Hunters at the start of the Inn Battle with it and the crossbow. Honestly I tend to never use secondary...

Valve will strip us of our weapons whenever it suits the planned game play they are aiming for, which is all well and good. I agree we don't need duel weapons, but I'd like it, It makes logical sense that if I find another pistol I should (if I like) be able to use two pistols at once.

It is called "The one free bullet" but rockets, nades, and the AR1/AR2 alt-fire don't count as bullets.

"Bring you daughter to work day, it's the perfect time to get her tested."

Well Duh. It was done to show once that button is pressed game over, time for lunch, yummy I'll have a slice of Eli's brain.

I hear Gordon talk all the time, he is more annoying then the Companion Cube if you ask me.

What I got for that Slide: Black Mesa.. -Overpay Slackers -Design does the job asked of it. Aperture Science... -Cost effective -Design does the job with a hint of evil. As for the Genetic Lifeform, I saw it as simply brain cells making up a primitive mind. Many Science Fiction...

I agree that Chell is not going to just hand it over to Gordon. Ether Chell is just another NPC to help you though a sticky spot or two with the Portal Gun. Or in her own game will meet up with BM personal like Barney (Is this where that little rat ran off to?).

Well to be honest, what Gabe says now and what we get a year or more from now is subject to change.

It's the Lunch Button! Are you hungry but can't find the time to cook a hot meal in between the late work hours and constant Strider attacks? Use the Lunch Button "It's lunch, made easy".

I tried this as well, then I thought "Milk Crate, got to find me a Milk Crate". But I've only seen one in all of EP2 and holding onto it until the car is harder then the Gnome.

Run over hunter(s), if you miss one get out and Gravity Gun the car into it. Then M-device the strider, rinse repeat.
