I didn't clue into the fact that the most wanted lists were broken down by district, so I wound up doing ti the hard way. I copied down every name on the following list and entered them into the police computer manually: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GouB_LEcu-4 Did the trick in the end.

I find when I park the Comet in my parking space in Bohan, there are usually several others parked around the block--the same way that you'll occasionally see other Infernuses (Inferni?) around when you're driving your's. If this happens, just walk over, grab one and go park it in another of...

Seconded. I actually prefer this to all the other fast cars for various reasons. --The Sultan RS is sturdy but turns like a birck on ice skates. --The Coquette spins out way to easily, as does the Banshee (though not as badly). --Haven't driven a Feltzer in a while, but don't...

Initially, I was really disappointed by the fact that Nico didn't seem to catch on that he was driving a serial killer to his next victim. It made the character (who heard the same radio reports I did) seem really dumb and morally blank. For that reason, I was relieved when the player was...

The first two albums are simply credited to "The Stooges," and I believe Iggy Pop was refered to as "Iggy Stooge" early in the band's career. The introduction of James Williamson and the release of "Raw Power" saw the band's name being updated to "Iggy and the Stooges.' They were NEVER...

Wow. Did you get to keep the knife?

I finally encountered tis creep for the second time earlier tonight. I was immensely relieved when I saw which way the mission was going because I had wanted to shoot his ass the first time around. I actually found Eddie to be a real prick to fight, though. He kept stabbing me as I was...

Man, haven't even made it to the 6 star rating yet, but exchanging fire with the door gunners on the big choppers is the most fun ever.

My tactic was simply to cross over to the other side of the tunnel and start driving the other way. I presume that, since I was ubderground, the choppers couldn't monitor me and the heat just lost track of me. By the time I emerged, they were gone.

There's an assassination mission in which you have to take down some bikers doing a drug deal. I fired an RPG into their midst from a block away, but one of their number survived and made a run for it. As I was chasing him, I passed through the area where most of the group had died. Their...

Killed him, but really did feel empty afterwards. They really made the character seem pitiful--when I had my rifle trained at his head, he was just gazing around blankly saying "Where am I?" Really gut-wrenching stuff. I was impressed that a video game could portray a scene like that so...

I heard that too. Not sure which bit they mean though. And, yeah, The Wire is the best thing ever.

Walking into Nova Prospekt for the first time was totally scary. Apart from that, I can think of some creepy incidents/settings in the games, but none that were particularly "scary."

The Lambda gets an immediate disqualification because, as a graphical symbol, it is an actual icon rather than an iconic item. It is however closely associated with one of the game's more iconic items: the HEV suit. Headcrabs and crowbars are pretty much incontestable, as we have already...

Snarks, like the Hornet Hand, are very HL1. Odd that noone's mentioned Dog yet. He's a fan favourite and iconic enough to have appeared on at least one t-shirt. Maybe just another case of an HL2 latecomer not representing the whole series. Also, I guess we just don't see enough of the big lug.

Well, I never said the grav gun wasn't iconic, but as important as it is, I don't think it ever replaced the crowbar. Take a look at "Raising the Bar." Despite the fact that it's ostensibly a book about HL2, it doesn't feature the grav gun in any of the concept art. Gordon is almost always...

Actually, what I wanted to ask was whether, in light of its status as a runaway pop culture phenomenon, the Weighted Companion Cube, has replaced such stalwarts as Gordon and the G-Man, as the most iconic HL universe character. (I feared an explicit reference to the cube would get this post...

In spite of what's been said about that being a reference to Bioshock, my own theory is that's it's just a psych-out to make the player think the couple have died and been reduced to skeletons--a conclusion later proven wrong by their appearance at the White Forest base. Of course, the effect...

Two words: Michael Dudikoff.

OOoohhh, so the Xbox only sighting was on the original Xbox. Is that right? I thought people were talking about the 360 version of the game. All is well.
