BRILLIANT! Just ordered mine and couldn't be more excited. :cheese:

Wouldnt be right if I didnt come back to celebrate this piece of gaming history! Woohoo!!

That'd be wrong. If a company creates a game and endorses mod making then why should the government have a say in such a thing? Its that company's property.

Looks like some awesome atmosphere in those screens. Very awesome.

Reminds me of something straight out of Diablo. Good work!

I can think of about 5 weapons they could use. Gauss gun, stun stick, slam, combine machine gun (hand held type that was on the airboat), etc... If the combine had rare weaponry, then it would make sense. That and prototypes. EDIT: Forgot the combine sniper rifle. ;D

Hey guys, havent posted in forever, just been lurking around these parts the past few months. Anyways, straight to the point. I recently removed my 9800 Pro from my rig for an x850xtpe. I played a lot of new games with utter shock and awe at the amazing preformance. However, The source engine...
