do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Yeah, it loses points in my book because I had to patch it something like five times (ijncluding a couple that weren't so legal- CD-rips and the like) before it would actually work, but now that it does it's so great it's scary.

You think it's fun playing it five times in a row? Try playing five games of Deus Ex simultaneously. Stuck on a point? Figure something out for one bit? Go back and try it. It's a trip. And it's eaten my entire goddamn weekend. Twice.

What's half-life?

Some form of AEC statistical analysis program used to determine decay rates of radioactive substances?

pph, the new thing "in" right now is to bash HalfLife? Of course, what am I thinking about, the thing nowadays is to bash everything that has too much success.
HalfLife was fun, period. It was not meant for anything else, and it did well.
But not to follow the current trend, but because it's like that, I'll say I don't like Deus Ex. Demo was boring as hell and ugly, and I didn't feel like looking any more into that.
Give me thief any day instead :P
SCREW CANON!

And you on;y have twenty games? That's just, dirty!

BTW, I agree with venom, why should people bash HL? It was (and still is, though will probably be displaced by DOOM 3) the best FPS in the world. You cannot compare it to DX or System Shock, as they were RPGs. Half-Life will always have a place on my HD, as when I am bored of every other game, I can go back to HL. And what's more, the mods that are constantly being churned out add weeks of extra playage. It will never cease to be a great game. (although PC gamer seem to think that MOH:AA is better, idiots)

And another thing. I really hate EDGE magazine. It just smack of pretntiousness. It is trying to be really arty with its matte-finish cover and it minimalist artwork. Is it trying to appeal to wealthy art students? It certainly doesn't appeal to me. I'd rather have PC gamer, although their opinions about MOH are rather suspect.

Ok...but I don't need help!

Here I go!

*First part*

"Good morning, and welcome to the Back Mesa Research facility. The time is...8:47 am, current top-side temperature is...98' with an estimated high of 105. The Black Mesa Research facility is maintained at a pleasant 68' at all times."

...damn...I know some other parts...but...not the part that comes after that one...anyways...

"Regular radiation screenings are a requirement of continued employment in the Black Mesa Research facility. Miss-scheduling your radiation test is grounds for immediate termination from the Black Mesa Research facility."

That's all I know...OH! wait!

"Now arriving at...Sector C test labs, and control facilities. Please make sure to check your seating area for personal belongings. Please stay away from the automated door until the security guard has comfirmed your identity. Have a safe and productive day."

...or something like that...haven't played Half-life in...3 months I think...meh...oh well

Cor

(edit: Just for kicks, I decided to write down what the 3 scientist say to Mr. Freeman before he goes into "The Barrel"

"Ah, Freeman! You're here, good! We've just sent the sample down to the test chamber."

"We've boosted the "Anti-mass spectrometer" to 108%...bit of a gamble but we need the extra resolution."

"The Administrator is very concerned that we get a conclusive analysis of todays sample."

"They're waiting for you Gordan...in the Test Chamber."

And...the little conversation between the 2 scientists who let Freeman into the Test Chamber...

"I'm afraid we'll be deviating a bit from standard insertion procedures."

"Ya, but it's with good reason. This is the purest sample we've seen yet..."

"...and! Potentially the most un-stable!"

"...But if you follow standard insertion procedures everything will be fine..."

"..I don't see how you could say that, but I will say that the chances of a "Residance Cascade Scenario" is highly un-likely..."

"Gordan doesn't need to hear all this, he's a highly trained professional. We've assured the Administrator that nothing will go wrong!"

"...Ah, yes. You're right. Gordan we have complete faith in you."

"Well, go ahead. Let's let him in now."

There...that's all I know! /:edit)

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil
