Crab synth

So, do you think we'll encounter them in Episode 3?

I sure hope so. Ever since they were shown at the end of HL2, I was expecting them to turn up in Episode 1 and later Episode 2.

I hope not...scary

I suspect we will. I mean, what's the point of showing off an enemy that we will never get to fight or even encounter with?

Exactly. Not everything makes it into the game. Usually for gameplay reasons.

That's what Missing Information is for, right?

Insano - pardon my ignorance, but where is that pic obtained from? Dodgy leak release / promo?

As for the Crabsynth itself - would indeed be good to see in Ep3 if it can be worked into the storyline - I guess there'd have to be some sort of explanation as to why we haven't come across them as yet...?

Matt, that screenshot is from E3 2003. I think its taken from some gameplay that was shown to the press.

Cheers guys and no, I haven't. Blocked at work, but as soon as I get home I'll have a look at that. Cheers again!

I'd never seen the Crab Synth's minigun before. Wouldn't like to piss that off.
