They've spent like ten years working on this and have accomplished a lot. Its hardly "generic", they could have just copied the brush work into source but they recreated each map from the ground up. They could have just copied models but they create all new weapons, characters and animations...
I still check this place but I don't know why. At this point I could visit tomorrow and see a giant flashing "HL3 RELEASE DATE!" and I don't think I'd really care.
Wow, I didn't realize I joined in 2004.
I like how darkside is acting like somebody raped his mother. I cant think of the last time I've seen rage this consistent over something so inconsequential. We get it, you're angry at a company. A company that has no bearing on your life. Get over it.
There is a theory that states that for every possible outcome it happens in another dimension. The Gman could be able to skirt these dimensions and plan accordingly.
Mossman mentioned String Theory and I believe that is the key to teleportation. If you could control the "strings" could...
I cant help but think of the speech the Gman gave Adrian at the end of OP4. He said he respects people who survive against all odds. It seems Adrian would be the perfect person to test the portal gun.
The womans voice is mechanical like the voice in the tram in Halflife. It is a bit...
I think things like the teleport gun make sense in the Halflife2 world. Judith talks about having to go through Xen to get to another place on Earth and thats what that gun does. The teleporters in the Lambda Core, Nova Prospekt and Izzy's lab take a long time because they are going to a...
A non ripped up version of that picture is in a few houses along the coast in Halflife2. I dont think it really looks like the Gman. There is also a kid with him and the photo looks like it was taken in the early 1900s.
I really enjoyed the commentary. The only bad thing I can think of is it might ruin other Valve games for me. I know what to expect by my locations now, plus I know what they are doing.
I think it has something to do with HDR. When the lost coast came out I would get it when Gordon "wakes up". I only get it for one map in Episode One. I dont think its a resolution thing because I have a x1900xtx running at the native resolution for my monitor. I think it has something to do...
I dont think he has to be friends with the Vortigaunts. Throughout our history there have been plenty of humans working twords their own goal. I think the Vorts didnt grab Gordon earlier because they didnt know about him. At the end of Halflife the Gman grabbed him up pretty quick after the...
The Gman is a really powerful guy who can seemingly stop time and pull you away from the explosion on the citadel. The Vortigaunts pulled Alyx from the explosion as well, although it did take a few more. Also the Vortigaunts have access to whatever it is the Gman holds you in. I'm thinking...
I'm thinking the newer episodes will be longer. Episode 2 and Episode 1 where started around the same time and Episode 2 isnt out yet. Also Valve stated they were using a third party to create the fourth episode meaning Valve dosent need to dedicate staff to it. I think Episode 1 was a "can...
