CPU and 512 of 233 is killing your performance.

Run a 3d benchmark before you install the new ram and afterwards. I bet there will be a signifigant difference.

Oh, I forgot. The guinea pig cat that Barney is afraid of is an allusion to 'Timeline'. Or so I heard.

You can't travel at the speed of light. It's not possible. If you could, you'd be converted to energy, so there would be no more you, anyway. ;)

If a person was telkeported in this way--duplicated and the original destroyed, you wouldn't have to worry about having to reproduce "memory," as that would be copied also, since memory is just a collection of 'impressions' on the brain, patterns of nerouns formed by that individual's...

Anyone know where Gabe went to college? I bet noone does, but I'm still curious. Higher education is neccessary no matter how much I.Q. you have, unless you grew up in a house with two parents that both have MD's and PHd's, and with roomful of real books you spent your childhood reading.

Houndeye. :)

If they do, they will charge $39.95 for it, and call it 'HL2 expansion pack.'

Corect. You get the long version of the train ride at the end, instead of the beginning of the game.

There's a few of those kinds of sounds I bet. At the beginning of the game when the combine bursts through the door of the apartment and starts beating the people inside, the noise that the guy being beaten makes is also used someplace else, in another videogame. I know I've heard that...

Why would the combine post graffitti? It's resistance graffitti: the combine 'mothering' of the humans (the scared baby) really creates a CASTE system, and humans should resist it. That's all there is to it.

It's resistance propaganda that suggests that the combine are treating the humans badly-- it is a 'caste' system. The baby is drawn as being scared to reinforce the message. That is all.

The article is about HL2, but they are obviously describing HL1. The "federal agents" are the marines and black ops; Barnacles eat people; bodies explode. Hl2 is bloody, but not as bloody as the DOOM- influenced HL1.

Well, it's not called the Alyx expansion for nothing. :imu:

Yeah, it's supposed to be the big 'brainwashing' facility, but there really isn't anything in it to speak of. It's kind of lame that there really isn't anything in it except for empty cells and more combine soldiers. Valve could have done more.
