Best HL enemy of all time?

Other, Nihilanth. I like fighting bosses 500 feet tall in games.

Striders all the way.

This is yet another reason for the Sven lot to produce a decent Stadium remake in Source- eventually, given enough time, the team might be able to return some of the old favourites to the Half-Life universe, and future "versus" threads would be unecessary...

Anyway, as for my favourite HL enemy, I'd have to say the Garg was the best. I felt far more awed by that gigantic blue badass then I did by the Striders, despite their awesomeness; and this was aided by brilliant cutscene use in a vast array of memorable mods.

The Gargantua was just a rampaging war machine that would've given a Strider quite a challenge- strong and surprisingly fast-moving, its only fear would be the reality-distorting WMD the Strider sports as a secondary weapon, as I doubt the primary gun or its pointed legs could penetrate a Garg's armour. If it got up close, a Gargantua could rend a Strider limb from limb.

Gah, I've managed to turn towards a "versus" mentality, damnation...

Yeah, stadium sure was a fun map. Only reason is still like the strider better than the garg was because the strider was done in source. Lets now pray for a decent Garg remake. :angel:

Yeah the pit worm was awesome. He was like the tenticle but a lot cooler.

I played OpFor a while ago and i dont seem to remember the pit worm. Was he that gigantic crazy boss guy at the end? could u post some screens?

You forgot about the entire X-Race aliens and the original Grunts. I can still hear them saying:

"SQUAD, KILL FREEMAN!" :sniper:
