G-Man Appearances

[CLASSIFIED]

Here's the article from PC Zone:

Where's Wally?

Spotting the G-Man is a game in itself.

The G-Man is one of Half-Life's most perplexing mysteries. Who is he? What's in his briefcase? And why does he talk like Agent Smith from the Matrix? Frankly, your guess is as good as ours, but what we do know is that he moves around the Half-Life universe with remarkable ease, appearing like a phantom in the most unlikely of places. In the original Half-Life, he crops up on more than 50 seperate occasions (according to hardcore spotters), though if you're not looking, you might just as easily miss him.

In Half-Life 2, it's much, much, harder to spot the ambiguous bugger as he slides in and out of the game, but he's definitely still there. Keep your eyes open when you play the game and send your sightings (with screenshots if possible) to [email protected]. There'll be a fantastic prize for the top spotter (probably), but in the meantime, here's something to practice on...

Half-Life was released before Matrix, so Agent Smith Talks like the G-man and it's not the G-man who talks like agent smith

The one in Uplink

The one in Uplink

Uplink doesn't count because it happens in an alternate universe.

I've only played Uplink, but I didn't finish it. I stopped soon after you have to duck in between lasers, these guys shoot you, you kill them, go further, then a guy and an automatic turret thing killed me.

Happy end.
I'll spot G-man once I play HL: Source.

Another one in office complex me thinks, near the part with the walk-in freezer room.

I think youre right mate. I seem to remember that one.

Hello BTW :cheese:

 

[Snorri]

hey, what happens if you shoot the Gman???

Nothing. In HL he seemed to be made of metal

Actually, you're wrong. If you read this thread, you will see why. Btw, read my post at the bottom, username teh_nub or something like that.

Additionally, how about listing the sightings in Half-Life 2? After all this is www.halflife[b][u]2[/u][/b].com...
So far I've seen him three times:

• And finally, at the barn in the rebel base where you get to try out the rocket launcher for the first time
• Near the lever to opening the dam you must jump through after shooting down that ****ing helicopter that chased you for hours
• At the barn where he evidently is shot (see the thread i referred to)

Edit:
Errr... I kinda noticed now that this is the Half-Life: Source subcategory of the forum. Found the thread through google and was kinda lazy so... Sorry. Guess this link is kinda stupid then, huh?

According to this:

The G-man model has 14 references in the game.

 

[K.I.L.E.R]

At the start of the game in Kliener's lab on the security camera you can see the G-MAN near the gate at where you came out of.
