It was grey, grey and dull, but mostly grey.
Sprawling leisurely over a matter of nearly a century, they city had grown jaded with itself, with its past, and with its colorful flavor. So it left it all behind, and became simply grey.
It was in this grey city that Hunter Mark-Simmons...
I was thinking that a group story would be fun, one with a alternating authors every chapter. Would have to have some way to randomize who began the story though, and then we'd have to have a certain order, otherwise there'd be complete anarchy.

Download it and watch. I think it looks promising, although many elements look "inspired" by Valve or id. You'll see what I mean.

This is something I dug up from a long time ago just for fun...

This is a petition for a Creative Writing forum. I've seen a lot of fanfics, and heard many people say that they could write or storytell, yet there isn't an outlet for these things. Posting in other forums is impolite, imo, unless it's in off-topic, which doesn't work for HL2 fanfics. If you...
Hail the Art and Design Forum!
I've thought up a somewhat-story to go along with my mod system idea, but just as I began to write about the story further...poof. Writer's block, as far as characters go. What I humbly ask for is if you are inspired by my story to draw a character, please...

TOP 8 MORONS OF 2003
1. WILL THE REAL DUMMY PLEASE STAND UP? AT&T fired President John Walter after nine months, saying he lacked intellectual leadership. He received a $26 million severance package. Perhaps it's not Walter who's lacking intelligence.

*draklyne holds up sign proclaiming, "Will write short stories for free!"*
*Turns it around, considers, crossing out "free" and scribbling some more. "FOOD," has been appended to the end. After a moment's pause, adds "Do not send thru mail."*

It has to do with jumping. It would also be beneficial if your mouse was a scroll and tilt mouse. Allow me to explain.

The Inquirer, Ridiculing Illiteracy, Americans
And, well, whatever else they feel like on any given day.
I'm not sure if the forum-goers quoted by TheInq Well are from HL2.net, but I thought I saw a few recognizable quotes. TheInquirer gave out awards at the end though! Here's a clip:
I have a feeling that my computer could be performing better.
When the radeon 9700 pro first came out, ATI bragged that they were getting 50 fps on Animusic's Pipedream. Yet, my computer gets a mere 30 fps, using FRAPS.
What's wrong with my computer?

This is mind-boggling.
Note: Please take 15 minute breaks between every hour of staring at this. Otherwise you will lose the contents of your stomach.

The man sobbed hysterically at first, until his mind began to calculate. Cradling the bundle closer to his chest, he stopped crying abruptly and rose to his feet like a zombie. His eyes were in the shadow of the sun as he began to walk.

Took these right off HardOCP's site. Shame on me.
I have to say, those shots are incredible. I can barely imagine fragging in a game as detailed as Doom ]|[. It looks like a rendered cut-scene from older games...
