I like the caption under the uber-old screenshot of the Strider amongst the fleeing City-17 citizens: "I'm not sure whats happening here but I think the guys running are your enemies and the giant tripod monster is your pet." EDIT: Also, to further support the claim that it is a "joke"...

That's cool about the photos. I always assumed they had those done especially for their advertising.

Now isn't this pathetic? Someone has to address the commonality of being flamed before they post a question. Doesn't that just make you cherish the warm, fuzzy demeanor of the denizens on this forum? On topic...I honestly don't know if there's any special meaning behind the name. Maybe they...

Wel they have to go with Vivendi for the next one. They're bound by contract on it. But who knows. After the legal snafu is finally resolved, maybe both parties will agree to part ways. But I don't think it would be a very wise move on Valve's part to go completely Steam. Not just yet. That...

I feel for ya, man. When I saw the date that's what went through my head too. But at least we finally know when it's coming out. It's been about a year and a half of anticipation. When you think of how much waiting there has been total, then it's not too bad.

Seriously. Check out Bioware's entire back catalog, for example.

That would make sense. The formula for all HL expansions. Hopefully we can be a Strider.

LOL did somebody just hack Icarus' login? A link to nude celebs or something was under a post under his name. And now the post is gone. I was about to question whether staff members should be linking material like that on here.

You could use some absinthe right about now

I would love it if they springed a Halloween release on us or something.

That is the one perk I am quite happy with---good performance. Which is a helluva lot more than I can say for the piss poor excuse of a multi component that's present with Doom 3. Let's all visit a parallel world in which Valve churned out only a handful of maps in boxy dm format with horrible...

Looks like we're gonna have to wait for Insurgency or Sven Co-op for Half-Life 2 graphics-quality multi.

I really liked the 'Carrier' level in FC. Not half as immense as it could've been, but still fun.

I'm sure Vivendi would love that too. And the folks from the Bungie offices down the road from me would be standing outside of my local EBX laughing their asses off, counting all the Halo 2 purchases from the Half-Life 2 ones.

Well a shipyards area has been discussed before, right? I think it's safe to assume it's still in if that area is in the game.

Know something we don't Eternity?

I know this has probably already been debated to hell...but is the reason that CS:S's graphics aren't on par with Half-Life 2's because it just wasn't feasible for their development schedule to take the time needed to make it look and run that good? If anyone could clear this up I'd be most...

Uh...I would assume a big no on that. While increased detail does tax bandwidth more, I seriously doubt Valve would have only made it feasible connection-wise to play mods w/ Half-Life 2 multi at half the detail of the regular game. Granted Doom 3 multi is lagged to hell because of this very...

Well wasn't Sierra bought by Vivendi?
