near the end of the game, after you beat the striders on that roof there, before you enter the citatel,, in the back ground you can hear anti aircraft and machine gun fire, which was taken from the war on iraq.
 
because i watched the war on iraq, and the anti aircraft burst fire in the back ground is exactly the same burst shots that you here if you were to watch the bagdad attack again.
 
Where the hell else do you think there gonna get ambient sounds like that? of course it came from Iraq.

Why spend the time creating such a file when one is so readily available?
 
What newscast did you watch?
Not that I actually care, but lets pretend for a moment that there is an ounce of validity to your claim, or that it matters even if your assumptions turned out to be true.
 
i kinda agree with the original poster...very similar. Maybe the ones that were on the news were fake?
 
A lot of games use the same sound FX, or burrow from other sources, I don't see why this couldnt be true, maybe it is :)

Can you imagine if that were true? it would be like when people were convinced the moon landings were faked :O

it sure is the same anti aircraft fire that i heard a year ago in the war on iraq. right when they first bombed bagdad.


i watch fox news, anyways. not that it matters, all the news channels had the same damn coverage.

anyone with any normal intelligence would beable to recognize sounds like that.

also, on the original half life disk, you can use it as an audio cd in a stereo/cd player, song 12 can also be found in medieval total war.

News casts use stock footage as filler if they dont have decent footage ready, I dont see why they wouldnt do it with sounds. In any case, There are a million companies selling sound effect packages, and I would be suprized if this comes from one of them.

Eh? Probably it is the sound of the gun, which was used in the Iraq war too. Only this doesnt have to do much with the Iraq war :cheese: Thats like to say that all people in HL2 talk like in Iraq, because ppl in Iraq talk

just FYI - comments like this tend to detract from ur point. Pompous behaviour does not equate to intelligence, dude...

Just my 2 cents - *dons flame-retardant suit*
