Yea, this game is definatly very tough. I like it that way though. I can't just run into a room and shoot everything, I have to find strategies for each particular location. I'm hoping that it wont automatically patch the game, I'd like to beat it at the insane difficulty it is now.

Theese speed runs are not in real time. They are made of several video segments, in this case 21.

I love this mod/program/thing. my only complaint are too few maps which hopfully can be changed by the community and slow compiling (i doubt there is much that can be done about that short of buying a new computer) i wish i could make rooms but i dont know how. ill try to learn over the...

I have tried many different settings and never gotten past the first room. I dont understand how the first room could be out of bounds unless the bounds are too small for 1 room or there is no inbounds area. Has anyone gotten past the first room? Also, when i hit the abort button it...

Forgive me for asking but, do the winners get a physical prize or just honor and fame among the hl2 community?

i always learn about whats going on weeks after everyone else so i probly wouldn't even know it happened, then a week later id walk outside and be shot.

i dont know anything about JC Denton but out of the others, i think gordon would win because of his weapons. Gordons got the Gravity gun (and maby even the organic gravity gun in which case gordon could win 4 v.s. 1) the crazy guided rockets and the crossbow. And, maby even antlions. Also, all...

newbie is somone new to a game noob is someone stupid thats new to a game thats my definition anyway. Also, its not always that veterans hate noobs, its just fun to make fun of noobs

That is the exact same computer i have. It runs Hl2 fine (no stutter, no slowdowns) at high settings, noAA, 16AF, and 1280x1024 resolution. Once i get to anticitezen1 (or the first chapter in that envirment) i have to reduce AF to trilinear. I have nothing overclocked but i did use a tweak...

i bought the game used for $10 and enjoyed it. It wasnt long enough but it was fun while it lasted. Anyway, EtM was released on several consoles as well as the pc. Halo 2 and GTA:SA are both console games that both got well advertised. So, its not really fair to compare sales of those games...

It seems to me that with the graphics as realisitc as they are in modern games, over-the-top dismemberment and gibbing would be too sickening. The blood splatters are enough for me.

i wasnt scared ever through the game. I wasnt scared at all through doom 3 either. And while it sounds like im just a little kid trying to sound brave, iv never felt real fear in a game and the only time i jumped once. It was because there was silence for a long time and i was checking to...

a while ago I dled a npc spawning scrpt and installed it. It was just a simple .cfg file so i made a backup of my current config.cfg and put the text of the npc script in my original config.exe. Then i wanted to go back to playing without any cheating but i would occasionly spawn something by...

I had no problems the first time i played through, but on my second or third run through the game the same thing happened to me. I just played through with out them. i was playing on hard and i did it so its definatly possible on normal. While the turrets are cool, the level can be more fun...
