hehe tei you typed that like you have been on a coffee fuelled HL2 binge. I have images of you typing frantically occasionally throwing your head back in manic laughter whilst drooling at the keyboard.

Good artisting and coding work! (more than GOOD, this is ART with capital letters) Some critics: - some sine surfaces on rough metal or wood, not everything its like metal or glass,.. I see some abuse of that feature. Other than that, I love much even the overuse of this feature, Its pretty. - the installer its dooooooomed, slow as dead, you have to wait eons to install.. Reminds me the tape version of "F-111 Fighter Bomber" for C-64, you need to wait 3 hours tape-loading to play the level 3. The HL2 installer takes too loong. - the DRM thingie, I am a open source zealot so everything DRM freake me, I also love this game and the Valve work so its dificult to me to accept something. I think the idea of "internet required to play single player" its doomed. Some people dont have internet at home, so can't play this game. People on far town on mountains, etc.. not everyone on the world has internet. Bad idea to require internet. Some positive critics: - I love the game inmersion, that its lotsa cool, reminds me Doom3 but with lights-up and with a european style city. Has a european guy, mi city looks similar to this city, I love that. - Good under-use of weapons and monsters, I suspect this game has tons of good weapons and foes, but you can play 4 hours with only 3 types of enemys and 3 types of weapons. Thats is amazing. I am still playinng.... _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders *********************************************** This e-mail and its attachments are confidential and are intended for the above named recipient only.
