    Portal soundtrack

    Loool - I was just about to order a Boards of Canada EP (In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country) at Amazon.co.uk, and look at who's review is at the top - dogboy73! :cheers:

    Breaking the Button

    Yeah, this happened to me on the advanced level too. I tried re-loading my savegame, but it still did the same. Can someone confirm whether or not this can happen in the normal levels, because I'm not so sure...

    Outlook sounds in Portal

    Yeah, I noticed this too, and meant to post about it but forgot which track it was in. Seems very odd.

    How do you get the gold 'medal'

    Yeah - Portal Walkthroughs :) Piece of advice - only use these if you've completed the game, or if you are *really* stuck, otherwise you'll ruin the fun.

    How do you get the gold 'medal'

    Once you have completed the game, the advanced maps and challenge maps are unlocked. The advanced maps are basically harder veriosns of the last 6 puzzles. The challenge maps include doing maps using the least footsteps / portals / time. Only when you load one of the challenge maps can you...

    Portal soundtrack

    Hey dogboy73 - me too! 'No Cake For You' literally sent shivers down my spine the first time I heard it (in-game), and still does when I hear it. For anyone else who likes Kelly Bailey's ambient/electronic music, you'd probably also like both 'Boards of Canada' [Wikipedia] and 'Aphex Twin'...

    Office wall sketchings (spoilers?)

    Sketches - GLaDOS Could these drawings be connected with GLaDOS in some way? Perhaps they are a child's interpretation of GLaDOS - i.e., maybe she looks a bit like a jellyfish to a child. Just a thought... Also, the fact that there is a 'nice little jelly fish' and a 'big bad jellyfish' may...

    The Epic Halflife2.net Improvement Thread!

    For those of you still thinking about implementing some sort of calendar on the site, have you thought about using Google Calendar? I have been very impressed with Google's efforts on this one. Although I don't think it will be possible to completely 'integrate' it with vBulletin (with birthdays...

    Im stuck on the ledge...... Help

    Ah, sorry! Didn't read your post properly. If using the grav-gun isn't working, I'd recommend starting the game again - it's only a couple of minutes beforehand. Also, I suppose you could validate your game files by right clicking on Episode 1 in your Steam games list, clicking 'Properties'...

    Aperture logo

    After watching the HD version of the trailer, and closely examining it, I can be pretty sure that the logo is NOT the universal symbol for 'infinity'. I can't be 100% sure obviously because there is a tube in the way, and that part of the gun is partially blurry, but it's looks quite similar to...

    About the helmet

    Lol, just look at your avatar - I can't see any hemet or "hat" as you call it :cheese: Anyway, yes this seems like a rather pointless thread :rolling:

    Im stuck on the ledge...... Help

    Ummm, I think you simply need to 'jump' onto that next ledge that you can see. Jump is usually the space bar, incase you were wondering. I apologise if this seems a little harshly said, but it seems rather obvious to me :|

    Mouse recommendation please?

    I'm currently using a Razer Copperhead in combination with a fUnc 1030 Archetype mat, and would highly recommend them both for gaming :smoking: . Although if you want a budget mouse, this probably isn't the one to go for :)

    Firefox bug?

    DoD crashes randomly

    Funny you should say that. I play at lunchtime online with my work buddy (we have 2 pc's). His is a lot newer than mine, yet his one crashes everyday and mine doesn't. And like $kelet0r said, it's bad enough to have to pull the plug. Honestly, it really is that bad, I'm not some nub who can't...

    Username Changes

    I forgot to post this, but thanks Munro! Btw all, just incase it wasn't obvious, I was formerly Penfold_ :cheese:

    Username Changes

    I have a request that is a tad more than a name-change: You see, when I joined the name 'Penfold' was already taken. So, I added an underscore to the name because I couldn't think of much else at the time. Ideally, I'd like this guy's name, because he hasn't posted since September 2003...

    Sig pictures

    Good man. Although I like image sigs when they are used properly, (ie don't take up half the screen vertically), most people make their own sigs about 150 pixels high which is just plain ridiculous. My sig that I use on another site is 20 pixels high, which is what I think all images sigs...

    HL2.Net Ads are startin to scare me..

    Like I, and many others have said recently - use Firefox. I use Firefox along with the extensions I mentioned above and get absolutely zero adverts and zero pop-ups.
