OK, I've just gathered together a few of the questions and threads that continue to be brought up. Hopefully this FAQ can help some people.
Who/What/When/Why/How...
Wait! Hold on there fella, not so fast.
Have you tried.... *****searching**** the forums? It's almost certainly been asked and discussed a hundred times already.
What the hell is going on in the HL story!?
Take a look at this detailed HL2 Storyline. Even Marc Laidlaw has stated it's "pretty darn accurate".

What are all the G-Man sighting?
Steampowered.com have a thread with all 12 currently known sightings here:

How do I use cheats to get the blue gravity gun earlier in the game?
Type into the console:
map d3_citadel_03
Wait for the energy field to take your weapons, pick up the gravity gun, then use a changelevel command to take you to another map, e.g.
changelevel d1_trainstation_01
Where's the Hydra!? And the Icthyosaur?
It was cut, as were many other parts we saw in the E3 videos. This happens kids, deal with it. Although I would have liked the Biozeminades to have made an appearance...
I'm STUCK!
Firstly, don't be tempted to cheat, please! You will never forgive yourself. HLFallout are developing a pretty good guide here which should have all you need:

AI/Scripted scenes are broken
e.g. Mossman not taking you down on the elevator
Firstly, make sure you have a LEGAL version of the game. Secondly try this, taken from http://www.k1designs.com/halflife.htm:
Also try this if you can't jump having got the blue gravity gun.
Half-life 2 crashes / stutters / doesn't work properly
Try this: http://steampowered.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/steampowered.cfg/php/enduser/entry.php
or search the Steam & HL2 Support forum
What other console commands are available to me? How do I spawn enemies etc?
In case you're too blind to see the sticky, here's MagicalMonkey's thread:
