:imu: hey, what's up? have you ever noticed that in half-life, some aliens attack eachother? like for example, head crabs get smashed by Bullsquids, do you think aliens have different groups? if yeah, based on what? we know that Bullsquids are more powerful than the headcrabs, but is it based on power or inteligence? oh and one more thing, talking about inteligence, i was shocked when i saw this webpage about nihilanth talking about g-man at the end of the game, notice the parts in italics:

originally in:
http://www.kupoartist.eclipse.co.uk/gman/extra.htm

"...Also of interest, though not actually the G-Man's words are phrases said by the Nihlianth that are thought to refer to the G-Man:

"You are man...he is not man...for you he waits...for you..."

"Deceive you... he'll deceive you"

scary, real scary, that takes me back to the theory of g-man being an alien...
i mean like you see that other aliens, both in half-life 1 and 2 don't attack him:

originally in:
http://www.kupoartist.eclipse.co.uk/gman/extra.htm

g-man sightings, half-life 2, #10 nova prospekt:

"...On the first of the square monitors you find, one of the camera angles available shows the G-Man walking around completely undisturbed by the Antlion invasion going on around him..."

take a look at the picture in the website, later...

They don't have different groups, its just a case of wildlife vs wildlife. Do Lions attack Gazelles? Yes.
 
yes but why is it just these species? why not hounddogs, or alien slaves, and even so, how do you explain nihilanth's sayings about g-man, why is he being backbiten(!) by nihilanth?
 
Arent there like fifty threads discussing what nihilanth said?
I'd try the search button, you might find some interesting topics on the subject
 
Probably more than that, come to think of it.
 
well i'm sorry, i'm new and i haven't seen any of them.

Thats why you should always use the search button before making a thread :cheers:
 
Alien Slaves are being controlled by the Nihilanth: they're like workers and soldiers, not wildlife. Bullsquids just attack everything. Houndeyes are cute.

As for Nihilanth's sayings, the short answer is NOBODY KNOWS. Personally I wouldn't mind having yet another massive discussion on this subject...

Please do keep one subject to one thread. Make a thread about alien wildlife, or about the nihilanth. Both just gets confusing. :p
 
NOT fair

:flame: hey this is not fair, i could be like others and name a thread something, and talk about other things, how come there have been 30 threads about g-man being some bozo, but when it's me, some people could close my thread, ok, i could name my thread "gordon's sexual appeal" and talk about headcrabs, that way, more people would open my thread and non would close it, some site...
 
Don't be an arse. Nobody's bitching at you. People are giving you friendly advice: use the search button etc. Or are smileys just too complicated for you?

I don't know why Samon closed the thread, and personally I don't agree with his decision. Just because something has been discussed before doesn't mean it should never be discussed again. It might, however, be an idea to discuss one thing per thread, and not make the subject 'oh what do you think about HL3 and who's Nihilanth and also what's your opinion on a movie?'

The policy here is that if you have a problem, you PM the mods. Ask the mod involved if you have issues with your thread being closed.
 
Oh right. Good point. Man, would it kill you to just stick to one subject?
 
Samon said:
Right. But don't bump old threads

Um... so he should use the search feature to find old threads where the Nihilanth's sayings were previously discussed, but if he does then he isn't allowed to post in them? :P

Bumping threads - not allowed.

You can re post the Nihilanth sayings if he wants.
 
What I find interesting about the aliens faces are in the same configuration as Earths animals eyes over nose, nose over mouth this means that Xen has the same atmosphere as Earth when it does not, it makes no scientific sense, some of them don’t have noses but still have eyes and mouths which still doesn’t make sense.

I guess it shows that evolution has a plan in the HL universe. Maybe even guided by God?

well, some animals, even on earth, don't have mouth, but it doesn't mean they are weird... that much.
the problem is that some think breathing or eating is only done with the mouth, worms breath with their skin for example...

EDIT: btw i didn't know this is considered as bumping old threads, sorry though samon... and everyone.
EDIT2: oh that?, i thought i should point out why i've been an arse...! sorry though, won't do it anymore.

I breath with my nose sometimes.

The aliens probably shouldent even have legs, speak English, have arms, have a face and meh...
