Hal Robbins...is so...****ING...weird...
if he dresses like that all the time...jeez





okay that hat was cool...

 

[63]

They kept cutting him off to get to Merle

 

[nutcrackr]

Very cool! So weird to hear that guy speak.

Haha those award speeches at the end were funny

 

[bliink]

Hal Robbins is cool

 

[FireCrack]

^indeed

 

[CyberPitz]

They kept cutting him off to get to Merle

yeah that sucked...i bet he was gettin pissed. She had like..1-2 minute talking sprees, Hal had 10 seconds max \=

But all in all a very lovely clip. It's great to see the face of Hal and hear the voice outside the game. Makes me feel like he is actually ...REAL! woah..

 

[luketabor]

Hal's voice really doesn't fit what you would expect a man of his...uhh...displacement to have. It really does sound like some skinny nerd guy. Also, it really pissed me off when the hosts kept cutting him off for their stupid comments. Damn you G4, what have you done to my beloved TechTV?!?!?!


Oh, and as an aside - I have nothing against overweight/big people, because I'm halfway there. And Gabe rocks.

 

[bliink]

yeah that sucked...i bet he was gettin pissed.

I was getting very annoyed, but I don't think he was put out by it... he seemed very professional about it all. (esp. the last bit, he was hilarious )

 

[notmydesk]

That's neat! Wish the idiot hosts would have shut up for a few seconds to let the two actors talk, but that's pretty standard for G4.

Hm I felt that he was talking a lot more then the girl. The hosts shoulda take a cup of STFU though. Just let the guests speak. Its like they were rushing through this thing... But i dont think Hal was getting pissed there, he seemed quite cool about that.
I gotta say he seems like a cool fella.

And was I the only one surprised when they showed the picture of Merle? She really kind of even looks like Alyx.

heh that was weird seeing Hal and that voice.

They did seem to favor the woman though, shame cause he's weird, weird is cool.

 

[zodiak]

All ways fun to see what voice actors look like.

I hope next time those people will shut up and let Hal talk some more.

 

[Varsity]

That was embarrasingly nerdy. Remind me never to watch G4 if I ever go to America.

 

[Murray_H]

I'm scared.....hold me

 

[TonicBH]

I started watching, but then I forgot I had a boycott against G4, so I stopped before the two idiotic hosts even got to gabber with the two voice actors.

 

[liPillON]

Hal Robbins is Judge Doom!

Post of the day

 

[Goalie31]

Hal Robbins is cool nerdy

and Merle :naughty:

 

[A True Canadian]

Why do the hosts have to be on the verge of yelling when they talk. Calm Down. My god, they got annoying.

And what kind of hosting is that too? Asking silly questions and showing disrespect to your guests by constantly inturrupting and correcting them. Geoff Kieghley, what happened to you?

Anyway, good to finally hear from these two. Hal and Merle are two very interesting people. And it's good to know that they're both interested in returning to the Half-Life universe.

And by the way, that above picture is hilarious.

Does anyone know what sort of talent Hal is? I couldn't find any type of bio on him online. Is he anything more than some guy that Valve found to voice Dr. Kleiner?

we might have found out in the interview if that jerk didn't cut him off while he was explaining how he ended up working on HL2

hl2.net should do an interview with him and find out.. show G4 how to conduct one properly

Hehe.. that would sting..
"Fansite beats multi-million dollar commercial TV-Network with exclusive interview material!"

Maybe the wise ol' Chris_d can get us some sources :stare:

Exactly what I was thinking. One of the sites has to do it eventually, might aswell be this one first and I'm sure he's easier to get hold of than some of the others, and he seems like more fun too

I'll get right on it. Technically speaking, doing any sort of live interview would be a bit of a struggle. Might just be a text only interview, which wouldn't have the same effect.

I highly doubt you could do a worse job than they did though

Just any kind of interview would be neat, maybe even get him to post sometimes on here, or maybe he already does in secret *cue music*

That would be awesome! :thumbs:

Great clip.
