Yeah, I am a hardware whore."Mapcore - on the bleeding edge of technology"

join the club, baby

the word scat reminds me of the scatman. i dont think he did his reseach before taking that name :\

you see chell at the surface just after destroying the thing. passed out, yeah. dead? not by a long shot.

prototype looks damn awesome to say the least. i really liked the scene where pulled out the pilot... fkn a

that map is so square (pun intended)

looks good, but even with hl1 you could have made an effort with more rounded edges. it looks a bit like quake 2 as is (add a more brown/grey tone and you'd hit it on the spot). also some of the buildings seem incredibly bland, as if there were no damage, no decals no nothing applied to them.

this... is genius.

Quote from D3ads

It'd be a huge missed opportunity if Valve don't incorperate portal into HL2:E3, having said that they'd have to carefully think about how and when Gordon can actually use it.

this is exactly why i believe that gordon wont be able to use them in ep3. the female protagonist has the gun, and it doesnt look like it's about to change ownership just yet. my guess is that chell will appear at times in ep3 to help gordon out in some cases. then again, what do i know... portal 2 is coming out as well.

Quote from e-freak

no portals? I don't think you'll have portals in ep3 because it just don't fit into gordons armory. i see chances though that you profit from some kind of portal then. this is just a fan made manual how to play through a poor mans version of hl2 with portal - nothing official!

doesnt have to be gordon shooting them... if you catch my drift

guess what'll be happening in ep3

Quote from Thrik

They just need to get their shit on Steam and accept that Valve is the daddy.

haha, brilliantly put

2007: gotten way much up par with gaming, started uni.

2008: start of my industry career and finish off my portfolio ...and uh, maybe a gf if i ever get time for one of those

honestly deads, i am pretty sure that whatever they put on their front is throughoutly of marketing value. technicalities can always be solved and i could see valve asking them to remove those things before posting it, if it did indeed have any commercial value.

also those reasons you posted dont seem blatantly obvious.

i feel like it's one of those games that has an excellent story and makes a decent (albeit not great) sale. i haven't played it to the end, but it would be sad to see if they just cut up the story into 2 parts or made a cliffhanger story for a sequel, just to milk the franchise for monae.

maybe i am being too conservative about this, but when i think games, i think art. it would feel as if they'd spoil a masterpiece with a bucket of paint if they made a sequel.

so uhm, yeah, story related in short

i am impressed with this game honestly. sure it's no crysis in looks, but the story, the overall combat versus puzzle gameplay is really awesome. sure the game is linear, but so was half life and half life 2 - look where that got them. i am only worried about 2 things... that it will be too short and that they will make a sequel. a game like this deserves not to have sequel.

like it being for hl1, and hl1 having been phased out for years now. it doesnt have alot (if any at all) commercial value to them

yeah the art around the tv is awesome. i sort of wish i had time to decorate my walls like that
