I haven't seen this mentioned and I don't know if it's of any interest. but you observant people here might have noticed that the two coastline vids are actually played out in the same area. but there are some rather big map layout changes between the two.
for example the ramp Gordon drives up(and under) in the start of the bink is now gone in the E3-2004 prsentation and roughly in it's place is were the crane is located.
the area were Gordon goes up a ramp(or plank) to fight the combine(throwing a nade back at them with the manipulator) has a rather big scaffolding work(or houses elevated on poles, whatever you might call that) in the bink, and no noticeable access.
and for a point of refference, you'll notice that the bridge Gordon drives under in the E3-2004 segment is the same bridge that he jumps in the bink. there are a point in each vid that is nearly identical... in the bink when gordon is shooting at the alien gunship the first time and it's hovering over the water with the collapsed bridge in the background...and in the E3-2004 presentation when he is fighting the antlions on foot there is a short segment where he is looking towards the collapsed bridge , from where he came.
I just thought it was interesting that Valve are tweaking the levels to such a degree, "fairly close to release" .... :rolling:
