I'm sure there's a lot of talk about the "issue" with video game violence and it's effects on children on these forums. I like these perspectives: http://www.theonion.com/content/video/are_violent_video_games

EDIT: D'oh! The point I just made was already addressed - Next time I'll have to actually read the whole thread before posting... Just to be clear, the average play time is 5h41m. The distribution does show that a good chunk of the players finished between 3.5 and 4.5 hours, but Doug was not...

Check out the tweak guide for HL2 at http://www.tweakguides.com/ They are very helpful, hare geared towards the technical and non-tecnical alike, and are also extremely thorough.

I haven't read the entire thread, but it seems like it's mostly just debate about shepherd. Has anyone mentioned the lost week where Gordon was in "slow teleportation." An episode during that time is the best thing I can see being made by a 3rd party that would fit in the HL universe outside of...

I honestly don't remember how long I took to play through HL2. I just really enjoyed the game. I think I will really enjoy Aftermath, and will be happy to pay for the entertainment. People are geting a bit worked up about things because there has never been an episodic release before, and...

if you have the wrong aspect ratio the screen will go blank. To change the aspect ratio, right click the game, select properties then click on "set launch options" button under the general tab. Then type in "-window" (with the dash) and this will cause the game to run in a window no matter what...

Yah, their subscription gets extended a bit, but we get a lifetime of games and mods without paying an extra cent after purchase - we really are unfortunate!! :cheese: There is no single player for MMORPG, so they can't play AT ALL when the server is down - just like it is now. It's really not...

HAHAHAHHA

wtf? what law?!?

I hear this setting can be changed by modders. Imagine a little animals-throwing fight mod!! (chickens, and bunnies, ,and crows flying everywhere)!

Not EVERYTHING, then it would be a simulation of real life - no fun

I remember seeing the reflection in Doom3 for the first time in the demo (in the bathroom). It was laughable! he was a static face with awkward jerky movements that were extremely unlifelike. Gordon can't be made to do small guestures like Alyx when it's you playing him, so he'll look like a...

I think when enough damage is done to the "intact" object it will turn into the "broken" obejct. There are NO breakpoints. Only destroyed object and intact object. This is probably to save bandwidth. if there were break points, EVERYONE would have to know exactly where it was broken and how it...

Oops looks like kurrt beat me to it

My guess is that there could be different types of ammo for the gun - flares ammo and bluish stuff ammo but you're probably right.

and in that case, just being nudged off won't look so unrealistic.

if the object is large enough to knock the soldier off the edge, it would be large enough to kill him, so the scenario of him being hit off the edge without getting killed is VERY unlikely.

I like no post count. Now there won't be any spamming to become more "senior." Although it's easier to trust a more "senior" member on a topic which may have come up before. But you can see join date and "headcrab" or whatever status, which is an indication of seniority (I've only joined...

So there's actually no real difference between CSS and physics in other games? (It's all "fake" physics I mean). I guess we'll have to wait for SP for the full physical experience.
