What I said was the crowbar should be left out in its present form. Read the whole post not just part of it.

Where did I say to get rid of the crowbar? Does anyone grasp the meaning of to modify?

So what is so original about a crowbar?? Its no different than any other generic melee weapons. it just has a diffrent shape. Big whoopee. The diffference with a knife is how it is used, not the fact that a million games have it. In every game the only thing a knife is used for is for...

News just breaking.. Valve just released new system requirements for the game. Minimum is a Cray Mainframe Supercomputer that weighs 2-tons. I don't think your Fisher-price laptop will cut it. :cheese:

Do you know if HL2 will run on my 486? I sure hope so :cheese:

btw, I can think of a few interesting scenarios for use of a survival knife. There are things you can do with a knife that are impossible to do with a crowbar. For example, using a knife for cutting rope or wire. An interesting scenario would be a hostage rescue situation. Gordan has to find...

I hate looking at European cities. They always remind me of how truly plain and ugly cities here in America are.

What I said was to MODIFY the crowbar, not get rid of it. Read my post again. There's no reason why you can't have both a knife AND a crowbar in the game.

So there was a playable demo of Doom 3 at last years E3? Doom 3 won several IGN E3 awards last year (for E3 2002), so... Kind of strange that iD has a playable demo at E3 last year but not this year. Unless the rules for the competition were different last year.

It is amazing the extreme amount of detail just in that one mundane scene. it looks almost like a real photograph. I mean damn there's even a couple of nice-looking models of construction workers going about their construction work. In the demo video with the striders you even get to see a...

I think the crowbar is a silly weapon that should be left out or modified. It would be too impractical in real life to run around carrying an object as awkward as a crowbar. It is not a very portable weapon. By modified I mean that gordan should be able to use the crowbar only after finding it...

The degree of realism in HL2 is so great that its scary. It doesn't seem possible you can actually do any of the stuff they do in HL2. I think Valve must have access to some kind of top-secret government experimental technology from the real life Black Mesa or somehow got a hold of some...

yeah it is a sweet track.

I don't want to see too much gore. If there is any, it should be limited to the creatures not extended to the human characters. It becomes a gross-out gimmick after awhile that doesn't add anything to the game. The HL games aren't about gimmicks.

I am really impressed by the soundtrack as heard in the HL2 demos! First you have the impressive techno theme in the teaser. Very nice original tune. Then there's the really spooky-sounding music in the background that you hear during some of the E3 gameplay videos. For example you can...

you can blow body parts off the HL2 zombies and they still come after you.

The person who leaked it should be shot.

I voted for #3! And you sound like one of those crazy retarded nitpickers. Get a freaking life!

Even with all the video clips and buzz about HL2 right now, I think Valve should be commended for limiting the amount of hype surrounding half-Life. No one even knew HL2 existed until now, just 4 months before the announced release date. That is pretty damn amazing. While 90% of companies...

iD is still one of the top game companies in the world and most respected in the industry. I'm glad they are still around. iD is not only one of the best, they are the OLDEST. Without iD, there may not even be any FPS games to play because they invented the FPS. It makes me sick when someone...
