Death.Trap · May 12, 2004

Everything seems to finally be falling into place. I'm so hyped right now. Even though I won't be able to play the game; I'm buying the special edition the minute it comes out.

With all due respect, I think it's dead ugly.

can you recall www.unreal2.com lol

fuzzy_aus · May 12, 2004

I don't think this has been posted. But on the site it says this:

WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL HALF-LIFE 2 WEBSITE.
Thanks for visiting the official Half-Life 2 Web Site. Please check this page for updates and links to news about the game, including information released next week at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (e3) in Los Angeles, CA.

Looks like they will be updating it soon

DimitriPopov · May 12, 2004

Official Box Art
Official Website
Renewed Disclosure from Valve
and a loose release date

Looks like things are moving forward rather quickly , hopefully summer is right. Im starting to get excited again.

Space Cowboy · May 12, 2004

Well thanks for the nice site but I mean, couldn't they have released a site like this AGES ago?

they let sites like us gather the community and do the hyping. That way they could focus on doing other stuff.

Space Cowboy · May 12, 2004

Guess that makes sense. But it makes it harder for people new to HL to get into it if there is no official site for info.

Oh and in that trailer, wtf is that floating flying thingy when Gordon enters that courtyard with the column with the horse on top?

KiNG · May 12, 2004

Nice. I am really enjoying this, although I wish this years E3 was the first time we hear about it.

to me its looks like a scanner, but imo it is to big.

It is a scanner

Space Cowboy · May 12, 2004

Looks more like an eagle, but it is going waaay too slow to be a bird, also birds tend to flap their wings. Could be a scanner but like you said it is pretty large.

They appear to be pretty large

Space Cowboy · May 12, 2004

Actually, after watching it a few times I've decided that its a scanner.

Shuzer · May 12, 2004

Yeah, that trailer is pretty old IIRC, and I just watched it again, looks like a scanner to me

BabyHeadCrab · May 12, 2004

Actually, it's sorta-new. The carrier concept art we've seen before was extremely cropped and washed out. This version shows us the whole vehicle, and provides a name.

Anyone else notice that Combine machines are named after what they do?
Strider
Scanner
Carrier

The only one that doesn't fit is the gunship, but I don't think that's it's official name.

SITE IS FRIGGWN UP!gdfgdsa t 34
