How did I miss this till now?!
I got instant POI vibes in the first trailer too, all the way down to the scrambled audio when sifting between transmissions, awesome stuff. Bits of the soundtrack remind me of Drive too which is a bonus. It's also nice to see Chicago as the city to explore for once instead of New York or LA (usually only come across Chicago during 30s Gangster storylines).
Make multiplayer only game - "Fuck yeah this kicks ass, who needs singleplayer"
Make singleplayer only game - "Fuck you, where's my multiplayer?!"
Looks art-tastic!
Couple of new screens:

Some more footage of that swamp level, much longer this time. Unfortunately they're talking over it again 
God knows why they're using a controller on the PC...
Quote from SkjalgIron man 3. Don't stick around for the after-the-credits scene.
Is it Bruce Campbell going "groovy" ?
Oh wait, wrong film...
Four more episodes to go and I'll finally have my GOT day marathon 
Yeah that orb thing is a bit out of place, I thought the whole storyline revolved around an old Soviet outpost that hasn't been touched since the 1950's... maybe they changed it or something.
Quote from duxLets get super nerdy guys. How did you first play hl1? For me it was on a cyrix 200 @ 480 res in software mode at like 25fps
Pentium III 320 (or something like that) with 128mb of RAM at 480x320 in software mode
So looks like an alternate future where London is occupied by the nazis, could be very interesting...
The old profile is still here if you guys want to see the old media again, I know I did!
It's back and it's gone indie on the Unity engine!

Lacking the charm that the Source version had so far, but I'm sure it'll polish up more as it goes on, I'm just glad it's back!
Missed opportunity to have the Evil Soviets dabbling in dark arts and robotics during the Cold War instead of nazis again!
Oh well, it looks interesting, I'll wait to see what else comes.
It's funny because given my interest in Eastern Europe now, if I'd had the same hobby back when I first played HL2, I'd probably have lapped it up because of it's Bulgarian influence from Viktor Antonov. As it was I just felt it was so much of a leap into new territory from HL1 (and I still do), there was no real storyline other than Gordon has to do this and that because of what happened at some point during your long sleep and the way it was unravelled was poorly executed imho. The episodes improved on things a lot, One was more of the same but much darker like the original concept for HL2 and Two was a nice fresh change from the gritty urban depression of the Alien Infested Eastern Bloc-esque jungle. Also the gravity gun was fucking awesome.
As it is Black Mesa just worked on every level, an underground government facility experimenting on alien technology that unleashes Pandora's box. An ordinary Joe Blogs grabbing a crowbar and smashing everything up in his path, fighting off extraterrestrial nasties and an elite squad of soldiers and assasins that have to silence the conspiracy... and for the first time in an FPS, the plot is crucial to the experience.

So I didn't open this thread because I wasn't interested in FC3 until someone posted a gif from the BD in EOT and then holy shit.. is this is the most random and greatest "expansion" ever?!
Quote from TaylorHalf-Life 2 was so good it was almost as good as Half-Life 1.

Oooh... Yeaaaahh.. Ummm... I'm gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there...
Quote from cincinnatisurprised you're not posting stuff like this:
RED ARMY THEATER moscow
Well yeah there's many examples of it in Russia like yours, Pushkin Museum, Mikhailovsky Palace etc I wanted to use examples over the world to see how it's used on a global scale and to show that I don't just care about buildings in the Eastern Bloc
Quote from SteppenwolfTechnically speaking the Peter Basilica is late Italian renaissance architecture. Neoclassicism started in the 18th century.
Bah, I'm not an expert on architecture, they all basically rip off the greeks anyway 
Played GTA IV at the weekend, quite a few nice ornate buildings in there!
Stock Exchange is in Crysis 2!

What's interesting to me is the differences between the way they've made it here compared with MW3's version...
Remembered another couple, Herbert C Hoover building and The White House in MW2:

I haven't played Crysis 2, it's likely there's several examples in there...
