was that a gun that riped through reality?

that thing that made the audio go all ringy? that giant alien thingy's ass does it. I was wondering myself until I found some more footage that showed it more clearly.

It got a 98 from PC Gamer, tying it with Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri for highest score ever. I'm such a nerd. I'm going to live on $5 a week until Christmas so I can afford this and a new pc to run it.



toggletoggle post by menstrual_sweatpants_disco   at Oct 20,2004 7:46pm
haha yeah I read that. what did doom3 score? 96 or 97? I think half-life 2 beat it. The shoddy source I read said that it scored the highest score PC gamer ever gave out. I'm too lazy to see if that was true though.

What the fuck is Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri?



toggletoggle post by BobNOMAAMRooney at Oct 20,2004 8:22pm
It's like the Civilization games set on a planet orbiting Alpha Centauri. Turn based strategy where you build an empire, forge alliances, and wage war with rival factions. You control the economy and shit like that. The highlight of the game is the planet buster missle which allows you to obliterate enemy cities and entire regions of the planet. One of my favorite games when I was in 9th grade and a giant faggot.

hmm.. what does the cheap version come with? where are you reading this stuff? I know there's like 20 different packages for the game. I don't really need any nerdy half-life hats though.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Oct 21,2004 9:12am
so.. with this run on a 1.6GHz centrino with 512MB Ram?
32MB of vram, I think.

My new PC came last week. ATI Radeon X800 Platinum, Pentium 4 3.6 ghz. I'm going to hook it up to my tv and play Half Life 2 on the big screen.

I don't have Half Life 2 yet. My mom decided to pick it up for me for Christmas instead of her usual $50 gift certificate to a restaurant.
I'm going to pick up Call of Duty this weekend and play that until the fateful day.

saw my friend play half life 2 tonight. I wasn't all that impressed.

he mentioned there were like a total of 6 different models in the game... only 17 hours of gameplay..no multiplayer.



toggletoggle post by CongoogetalZobotomy  at Nov 18,2004 11:39pm
the multiplayer = counter strike source



toggletoggle post by menstrual_sweatpants_disco   at Nov 18,2004 11:51pm
which part was your friend playing? You move around quite a bit and end up in dramatically different looking locations.

if I get a all-in-wonder 9800 Radeo 128 pro with my 1900+ AMD
will I be able to play halo 2?



toggletoggle post by menstrual_sweatpants_disco   at Nov 23,2004 8:48am
finished the game yesterday.. I clocked the gameplay too... 15 1/2 hours. And I usually take it pretty slow the first time around too.

Also, the ending was blah. I wanted to see shit blow up, not watch a kubrick movie.



toggletoggle post by menstrual_sweatpants_disco   at Dec 2,2004 1:01pm
I wish the striders had that cool effect on their cannon still... where before they shoot that blue light appears for a moment and everything around it kind of gets bent inward like a black hole. that looked awesome in the old videos but they ditched it. I'm seeing a sniper rifle in these videos too. :(

yeah it would probably be playable, but at a low resolution and color depth.

nevermind. I saw that thing I was talking about on the striders. Fucking awesome. I guess I was too busy running in terror to notice it before.

I just started playing this game, I also got Episode 1, but I haven't played Half Life 1 yet should I start that?



toggletoggle post by Doomwhore  at Jul 1,2007 1:05pm
I know someone who turned down the oppertunity to fuck because they were too wrapped up in this game. I'm not saying that someone is me or anything.



toggletoggle post by Greg D at Jul 1,2007 1:35pm
One of the best, if not the best game ever created. Those Striders fucking rule. That whole battle making your way through the center of town in front of city hall battling it out with those flying ships and the Striders takes the cake.
And eats it too.



toggletoggle post by menstrual_sweatpants_disco   at Jul 2,2007 8:16am
Agreed.

And the original half life games are great. One of the coolest stories around I thought. But sadly, HL2 isn't much of a continuation. It's still fucking great though. I hope they'll link them up someone with the original HL games when episodes 2 and 3 come out.

this game freaks me out.



toggletoggle post by ArilliusBM  at Dec 29,2008 12:23am
why?

I was so disappointed in this game. HL 1 is probably my favorite PC game of all time.

With Portal 2 on it's way, I don't doubt there may be an episode 3 or part 3 out after it.

what arrowhead posted. I found a site that had a little bit more info, but it's very preliminary and stated HL3 was going to be in a snow world.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Apr 15,2011 2:57pm
and yea, there's no doubt there will be a HL3. you can't just end the game with a black scientist dying. that game is RACIST



toggletoggle post by menstrual_sweatpants_disco   at Apr 16,2011 1:17pm
I'm guessing they're not doing episode 3 and just making it HL3. They've taken way too long to be doing a short mini-expansion. They're probably going for a full title with 24+ hours of gameplay, which is what HL2 had.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Apr 16,2011 1:39pm
they are.. they're secretly working on an updated source engine. gabe has been very secretive about it but a few ideas have been leaked out. I wish I can find the site I read some shit on. It had concept art too. Maybe e3 soon will leak more shit



toggletoggle post by sxealex   at Apr 16,2011 4:53pm
i need a game that's fast paced and unrealistic like the first et. cs is pretty fun like scouts and knives but i want a team oriented game and tf doesnt cut it 4 me

Is Portal 2 based off the regular Source engine?



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Apr 16,2011 11:02pm
yes. hopefully upgraded a tad.

Currently working on a Portal mod where you're basically just an asshole with a portal gun who causes misfortune to hapless guards and such. Will be totally half-assed but possibly amusing all the same.
