*feels sorry for anyone who puts it as their wallpaper*

 

[Some_God]

Looks good to me... woops, sorry i was looking at animal pr0n the other minute so compared w/ that it looks good. :O

 

[Ennui]

they just took about fifteen bad screenshots and that piece of concept art and glued them together looks like.

Wtf is with gordon's arm... why bother manipulating the image to look like that?

what a horrible background.

 

[ComradeBadger]

I like how it has jaggies, personally.

It was like that before the release of hl2, then it got a lot stricter around release time, and now we're easing back into "halflife2.net-classic" mode

 

[ComradeBadger]

Yeah, much more relaxed - except in politics :hmph:

ATI: We want people to buy our hardware so lets show off its ability.
more ATI: OK sounds great!
ATI: Lets find someone that has our oldest card and make them take stupid screenshots on the lowest settings.
more ATI: Sounds great!!!.

Run your own counter campaign. Put a stop to his world domination attempts.

*ducks to avoid the midden that verily shall hitteth ye olde windmill*

 

[Jintor]

Yah, Bliink makes best wallpapers ever.

 

[Razor]

The wallpaper is supposed to show off all the brand new Ati technology that their fantastic new cards have, i'm talking about Bliink's paper, not the original one.

 

[Pesmerga]

Haha bliink, I love the bump mapping.

Wall papered.

 

[CookieCuttah]

*Strokes chin thoughtfully* Maybe I shall -_-

 

[Lanthanide]

The big "power arm" everyone is talking about, it's fairly obvious what it is and where it came from.

It's from the art that some guy drew of Gordon holding his crowbar and smacking an antlion (guard?) to death with blood flying everywhere. The one that VALVe eventually got the rights to use. For some bizarre reason they cut out the part with his arm raised up like that, and also cut the crowbar out, and added it to their crappy melange of shots.

 

[Alix Mcdean]

Dudez, the power arm fits!

Think about it. You're Gordon Freeman, and you're carrying around this 3-5 LBS crowbar, swinging it around like a monkey. Dont you think after awhile you'd gain a bit of muscly bulk too?

...come on.

Tho, I do have to say that now after viewing the wallpapper, i've lost all sight in my left eye due to receiving eye cancer.

[Jintor]

Hey he's right! Gordon only ever swings with his right hand!

He dosn't even use it like a boomerang and catch it IN HIS ASS!!!!

(You know what I'm talking about. Right?)

 

[CookieCuttah]

I think Gordon found a motherload of steroids between some chapter. We just got used to the idea of being the FREEMAN so we never questioned the size/vision change.

 

[Pesmerga]

Not to mention the unavoidable scrotum / pen0r size change
