any indication whether HL2 will have leaning?

S would make you fall over backwards.

MMmm leaning is ok.. but only if its done right.. i dont want to just see a head poking around a corner and me getting shot.. the actual gun has to be around it . But as to if we know or not.. nothing has been confirmed in that regard and my opinion is that it is probably not in.

Anyone here seen the 3D Mark 03 demo 'Battle of Epselon'? There's a part of it where, from the first person perspective, the guy actually leans his gun around a corner, and fires. This just looks totally cool, and I hope future fps implement it. Heck, maybe Half-Life 2 already has.
