Might as well contribute, eh? I'm an obsessive-screenshot taker, but here are some of my favorites...

They'll just ban his IP address; that should stop him...

Dear god, if I have to read another "OMFG ALYX D3AD???!1111111 GM@N OMG!!!!!!!!11111111111" thread, I think I'll murder the poster before commiting sepuku myself. Honestly people, this question has been asked hundreds and hundreds of times; can you not take the time to read pre-existing threads...

First of all, let me commend you on an excellent summary/character analysis! Prior to reading this, I only knew what Stalkers looked like based on the poorly-lit sightings I had inside the Citadel. As for the various parts of the Combine Advisor, I have some personal suggestions I thought I...

I have a router, so like I said, I could simply unplug it. However, that would mean the rest of the household would be without an internet connection (bad). Does Steam have an impact on performance ingame? (I have a 2.4ghz pentium, ATI 9700 Pro, 512gb ram...)

Is there a setting to turn it off within Steam, IE. not having to pull out my modem every time I plan on playing the game offline? It would be possible, I suppose, but what if other people in my household wanted to use the internet on our second computer?

Anyone notice the cables stretching from the buildings in pieces like Vulkan Panorama? Its rather reminiscent of the strange cables stretching from City 17 to the Combine Citadal. Excellent artwork, though...

Exactly, and the same can be said about anything. Nothing can ever reach perfection, simply because there will always be room for improvement.

Dear god, watch this before I have to hurt you.

Have you re-considered the creation of the Gone Gold forum? Its quickly degenerating into a mass of "OMFG!!111111LOL!!!!G0lD!!!!!!!!HAHAHaH@H@H1111111!" as well as other...well....more sexually-disturbing topics. :P I'd suggest you close it before things get any more out of hand...

I noticed the same thing, but I assume it was just an extra effect added to the videos? Maybe I'm wrong, but I find it hard to believe that Valve would design a noise-alert system to allow you to know you've killed your target, especially with the realism regarding death animations...

I feel the same way about the Halo 2 collector's edition. I don't care much for the DVD-extras, just the fact that the case is metal. :D

Jeese shows how much I know! :P Sorry if I gave you an aneurism from the frustration.

Well, I guess that depends on what kind of fan you are, doesn't it? I personally am waiting until the game is released in retail form (I prefer having a solid copy rather than digital code in a window's folder), so I didn't buy either. Oh! Just a quick note- if you're buying through Steam...

Maybe you're just being a little too optomistic. The game is going Gold regardless within the month of October, but that doesn't mean you'll be playing the game until sometime in November. Unless of course Valve REALLY screws over Vevendi, in which case you could have it via Steam whenever Valve...
