I tried swimming out to sea once. Big mistake. Those leeches have really been upgraded since HL1. :)

Also (don't read if you haven't completed the game):

There seems to be a few enemies that were criminally underused or even unexplained, perhaps because they had no proper AI to use: the Itchysaur should have been a boss fight or something, rather than just a quick scare during the teleport mishap; inside the citadel there's 2 enemy types that you never get to see up close, the Stalker which is basically an lobotomised human mess used for what looks like menial tasks, but also as you rise in the casket towards Breen's office, there's a few walking Combine stegosaurus things you see walking from a distance, and this is the only time you ever see them. :(

the thing about Dog is that it feels like an actual character...as does Alyx of course. When we first meet Dog you really see how attached Alex is to him (er...it). It's refreshing to know that video games are evolving where we're the characters are more and more life like.

Also...It's great how there is an obvious back story, but they don't dwell too much on explaining it and let you experience it as you go through, revealing what they need to bit by bit.

Dog is amazing!

His animations are really smooth and life-like, but still robotic.

He also looked really cool when he was breaking the door in the 'two door entrance room to eli's lab thing' the specunmapbumps on his ... body.. were so sweet.

I also got the feeling of being under the combines rule in the early parts of the game, like when the guy knocks over the can. The animation was very smooth!

Im at school now so I cant play :cry:

I honestly saw G-man once.. i think its follow freeman, where i was ina rubbled building turned around to look at a TV that wasnt plugged in and lying on the ground and in the TV was Gman then the TV quickly shut off. Creepy. BUt once you guys get to the last 2 chapers... that area is aboclutly amaing.

I think G-man is Waldo's cousin. Fkr is hard to spot. I've only noticed him twice but I know I should more.

You forgot about the Nintendo:DS. BESTEST HANDHELD EVR!

Finished the game last night, absolutely awesome.

The last few levels are so much fun and has some awesome visuals.

A worthy followup to Half Life, in my opinion.

Now I have to start waiting for HL3 ;(~!

i liked in the beginning of the game when barny compliments gordon for pressing the button, obviously poking fun at the hl1 "experiment"
