  1. That's the funny thing about religions. Nobody knows who's right and nobody knows who's wrong. However, there's no one true way that anything happened.

    For all we know, religions coulda been just some "funny" dude in the 1600s that decided to make this stuff up xD

    Naw, just kidding. BUT, I will say this. No one's right, no one's wrong. This is because none of us could POSSIBLY be able to tell if any of this is true. There's no true written accounting that ANY of this could have, and would have happened (referring to the ways of life thing). Ever hear of aliens? There could be more "suns" out there and lucky planets that just happen to fall in the right spot and the right angle and what not. Just like the Earth did.

    However, science does prove a lot of things. Science, which makes me be able to assume this, could have proven that if the Earth was not at it's 23.5 degree angle, then we could have only 2 seasons. A wet and a dry season (much like Asia). However, some parts of the Earth would be even colder then right now if it were not for the tilt.

    Once again, religion can not possibly explain how the earth was created. In my opinion the only thing we have to fall back on is science.

    I hope I have no insulted anyone here in any way. If I have? I apologize...

    EDIT: Oh btw Johnny (John). I hope you realize how much a 1 million mile difference REALLY is. Just because the number before the 'million' may seem small, 1 million miles is even larger then Earth itself. And seeing as though that there's only an 8 minute travel time between the Sun's light and Earth there would be a difference that probably wouldn't be noticed.

    Besides, if the Dinosaurs were able to live in such extreme temperatures, why wouldn't man be able to accomplish the same thing now? That's because Man has adapted to the cooler Earthly temperatures.


  2. I thought that the Black Ops planted the nuke so they could just kill off everything and not deal with it again. In Opposing Force, if I remember correctly, you had to disarm the nuke. But then G-Man re-armed it.

    Also, keep in mind that if G-Man actually was Gordon then he wouldn't talk at all. And if WERE truly Gordon, then why would he put Gordon into Stasis every now and then? Why doesn't he let himself (O.o) just finish the job?


  3. Well, back to the Barney thing that EMO said. G-Man didn't show up at all in Blue Shift. Well, at least not directly like in Opposing Force and Original HL.

    But, if G-Man was Gordon or a duplicate and was trying to help Gordon stop the Combine.. Then why would the G-Man deliver the sample to Black Mesa which enabled the Combine to get to the Earth in the first place? If he were truly trying to help Gordon get rid of the combine, then this is all a game to G-Man. But if it were a game, then G-man wouldn't be trying to save lives and help people in the first place. Seeing as how G-Man is capable of mercy (EX: Opposing Force) it almost makes him human. And seeing how he saved Alyx's life from the nuke at Black Mesa, I don't see why G-Man would be playing a game at all.

    Now down to Eli. Well, G-Man delivered the specimen to Black Mesa but Eli just happened to be the person that the specimen was delivered to and the person that G-Man said this: "Prepare for Unforeseen Consequences."


  4. Half-Life 2 had awesome graphics for it's time. The water was quite good and gameplay was awesome too.

    Even now, Episode 2 is quite good with it's updated graphics and HDR support, IMO, it's one of the best games of all time...

    HL1 was quite good too. I remember when I first played it in '99 :D


  5. Well, it's the same pitch-ish.. And it sounds wavy-ish in VC. I just took a part of the sound, and reversed it and re-added the cut part. That way it won't skip..

    EDIT: And don't forget that SA's sound system is a bit different. If you're driving up a hill, the pitch will low a lot, in VC it'll be the same.
