best gman/hl3 theory yet

[Pyroxic]

Wait. Time stopping, telepathic abilities, inter-dimensional travelling without external coordoniation, oh, we can all do that as humans.

How do you know HE has these powers? How do you know he's not using some sort of technology? How do you know he's not being controlled by some other being? How do you know he wasn't given those powers by his "employers"?

Just because he has unusual powers doesn't mean he's NOT from Earth.

What is this "whatever good" that worths killing 90% of the people on Earth? Invent one now, please. Because for me it's pretty much like the WW2's American (really bad) decision of nuking Japan. "We save lives by taking hundreds of thousands of lives. Twice!"

Perhaps GMan knows somewhere down the line that sacrificing these lives could mean safety for all of humanity and could prevent the Earth itself from being destroyed?

I'll quote Darkside on this...

Sorry, my friend, but it's just silly. When it comes to the G-man, it's best to adhere to the policy of "wait and see." Even myself, a guy who loves to hypothesize about Half-Life and its universe, I stay away from the G-man. In the end, all you can do is guess, and after so many guesses over the span of nearly a decade I have found it's best to just...well. "Wait and see," hmmm?

Of course I'll wait and see, but stating that G-man plans good things for humanity is a little bit too far.

On the first issue though, let me ask a question. Why those "employers" would employ a human being and give him "powers"? Why not use something like a holographic projection of a human being? Thus, G-man being nothing but an image with a voice... Why would you think it's a real man in Gordon's sightings? (We exclude Shephard's and Barney's visions, they are not cannon..)

Eli sees him, as does the two doctors in Decay. Also Breen seems to be aware of him since he... well... had contact with him at Black Mesa.

I guess it's not hard for those employers to show up the same projection to different people.

I think I would NOT even consider G-man as being real until someone is touching/pushing/killing him. I would still have doubts after.

Technology is wonderful.

Pretty much stopped Japan's aspirations, didn't it?

Once again, misunderstood servant of the people. He's doing good. He's either a good guy or he's not-quite-a-villain, like Breen.

He interacts with the bomb in OpFor, a canon scene written by Laidlaw. He's not a projection.

Best G-Man theory? Definitely Sulk's theory that G-Man is time traveling Robert J. Oppenheimer.

I think he's the Wandering Jew.

 

[amaranth]

Oppenheimer? Yeah, Gman looks like him. They're not twins or anything, but there are definitely some weird similarities.
