So, I've been thinking about something... It's common knowledge that headcrabs invade the nervous system to control hosts, right? Injecting alien DNA *could* produce mutations in real life, but not actually control someone... DNA is just a blueprint, not a sentient being capable of controling someone... So the only feisable way for a crab to control someone is to make the host braindead, and then send electrical pulses into the hosts to make muscles contract/release, which has been proved to be possible (using outside electrical force to contract human muscle). So basically, I'm positive headcrabs are somehow capable of creating and using electricity, and the complexity of the task suggests higher intelligence.
While in Gmod posing ragdolls... I noticed that the headcrabs and the Vortigaunts both share the same weird backwards knee setup on their legs, and both end in the EXACT same split-hoof design, and also, Vortigaunts have 4 fangs, crabs have 4 fangs, and you can see crabs walk on their back legs when they charge at you... There's lots of superficail similarities if you look closer... So I'm thinking, maybe the Vortigaunts and headcrabs are the same race, and the crabs are a larval or baby Vortigaunt. It kind of makes sense, too... It's a perfect race to enslave. The Combine has a race that they can just sit back and send acouple babies into an area, the babies reproduce like mad and create a zillion zombies, eliminating the enemy and creating a city that will eventually mature into multitudes of slaves. It also stands up, the Vortiguants have control over electricity, so maybe while they are crabs they slowly learn how to manipulate and control electricity so that when they mature they know how to control it.
Let me know what you think... I'm 50/50 on if I actually buy into this...
