for the theory that the resistance hired the G-man to bring Gordon to smite the combine
I noticed something that I havent seen on any other posts so I'll throw it out there. Right after you get the bugbait and the vortigon is telling you how to use it, the vortigon says:
"The Eli Vance has greatest confidence in you"
Eli had been captured before you had been planning on going to the coast and the only reason you are in fact there is to rescue him. So how did the vortigon recieve a message from Eli that gordon was coming and he was confident in his abilities?
The best explination as to why the whole rebel force knows who you are without any need of introduction and why Eli is so confident of gordon so early in the game is because they had all been part of or had heard the decision to bring gordon to come and help them.
Another possible explination is that Eli simply broadcast a message when he found out Gordon was coming, and based on his previous experience with Gordon from HL1 proclaimed his confidence to everybody that Gordon would solve their probelem.
But this explination makes the resistance seem very weak to push all their troubles on to one man who was just there by some stroke of their luck...
