[dman19851996]

It's great how the source engine is capable of being canvasses for both things like the Dasboschitt videos and the insane stuff, as well as beautiful pieces like this. Bravo.

[Pusztuljka]

@mentosC4 Dude, don't misunderstand me (I know, I resurrected an old comment) but you are still a child, don't give a shit about life and be happy! :) If life smacks you in the face, show it a banana and all will be allright. :P

[x0raclex]

@TheHalorocks Uh huh, and what the fuck was your point here beside advertising yet another shitty Text Based/Flash game that claims to be an MMO in other to scam it's users of their money through use of a premium mall?

[TheHalorocks]

@x0raclex wats ur prob i was saying my opion fag

[x0raclex]

@TheHalorocks Your "opion" sucks.

[Renax111]

music?

[TheHalorocks]

enjoy the little things cause the next day you might be gone or dead or u might lose the best friend of ur life or your family and this game makes me see black mesa as fate that was messed with and all the people who died could be us and i like every one else i scared to die and i know we all die but it could be today tomarow or any day

[DonSkuzaCinema]

Summer in the City by The Lovin' Spoonful. Nice remix.

[GTASA911]

Half Life 2 IS the best game I ever played.

When I watched the TV serie Heroes I wished it never ended. That the episodes would come without a stop.

Now I have it with Half Life 2. At Episode 2 I wished I could play on forever without the story ending. But I must wait untill Episode 3 comes in stores. And hopefully there will come a Half Life 3 PLEASE!

[whatayaDO543]

love it

[rotjesenmatjes]

Wooooooooooot , awsome

[doom3134]

[zargrof1]

prätty asum!

:D

[Csthedog1]

cool

[stickmanLeo]

awesome :)

[stevetheazian95]

For anyone that is interested in the song:

"Summersong" by The Decemberists from the album "The Crane Wife"

[CripCoyote]

whats the name and artist of the original song?

[sezani]

the half life 2 story is epic but im pissed that the whole city whit the citedel was destroyed this is bullshit why it can't be only Breen? why the whole damn city if it wasnt destroyed it will be cool not some forests and some anoyng Magnusson(well maybe not Magnusson lol) but any way it's one of the best videos iv ever seen after Anticitizens of course a other great work done by Mighty Crane Films

[ZeRapSlaya]

wats on the tv on 1:40

[alex19589]

Ballad of Black Mesa

[fencernusy]

Nadnaks - absolutely agreed. Can't wait till HL2-Ep3... Until then, I gotta content myself with replaying the original or Source based multiplayers (DoD:S FTW)

[iIVIag1c]

its probably going to be hl3

because the first only had 2 add-ons like the hl2 ep. 1 ep. 2

soo ya and since its taken 2 years about to be 3 years they might just be making a new game

[RaynorX]

no it's going to be ep. 3 because it's been announced as the "final installment of the series following Half-Life 2"

[iIVIag1c]

o well did they say when its gonna be released ?

[RaynorX]

I haven't heard any dates yet, hopefully the game will be big though.

[branman57]

@RaynorX i thought they said it would be the end of the half life 2 story arc which means they would continue to make half life games but idk valve is awesome but says so much bullshit

[RaynorX]

Yeah it is, but as for the end of Half-life altogether I doubt anyone could really say at this point.

[fencernusy]

Me and my husband were thinking that maybe it takes so long is because it won't use SourceSDK but they're building a new physics engine...

In that case... I need a new computer... :p

[RickRay9]

I miss my childhood so badly, seeing this video, kinda, weirdly, reminds me of it, and the summers of it...

[alexmeanberg]

@RickRay9 Your not "normal", Are you?

[Nohakeja]

@RickRay9 man me too ;D we probobly played this at similar age ( i was 15 then ) still i was like a child then ; those days was good,very good (nostalgia) ^^ :)

[RickRay9]

@Nohakeja yes.. indeed ^^

It's so weird i can't go back in time though, with a time machine we all would be happy :')

[forsakenstoner28]

@RickRay9 i wish we could all relive our child hoods one more time

[bestbudy1LV]

@RickRay9 so at your childhood where walking combines and flying paparatzzysd

[RickRay9]

@bestbudy1LV Yep. :D

[bestbudy1LV]

@RickRay9 lucky guy

[nadnaks]

That was actually really well done. Half life two is still imo the best single player fps experience anyone can play. And this video makes me remember how good the source engine can look, especially the water.

[sheogorath19]

@nadnaks half life 2 looks great, episode 1 looks better, episode 2 looks gorgeous.... how much more beautifull will half life 3 (or episode 3) be?

[swarteman]

@sheogorath19

you really think it look great?

[sheogorath19]

@swarteman for it´s time it looks fantastic

[sheogorath19]

@swarteman and yeah i think it still looks great and it has one of the best facial animations ingame evere

[Nighthawk2702]

@nadnaks cryengine and frostbite engine are better but ilike the source engine to ^^

[sTunzyy]

omg! i really like this

[Subwoofer043]

Awesome! So realistic!

[Chilyme]

i think swolowed bye a whail

[humanoidmanticore]

what's the song?

[puritania11]

3:45

Track: Summersong

Album: The Crane Wife

Artist: The Decemberists

[astolpho12]

Perfect

[8306529]

good job, but one dropship would look more autentic^^

[pie189]

i have to say this video is pretty cool, the song is cozy! and whatever effect that made bright stuff brighter lookes amaising! it made everything sunny and shiny! i loved this part (1:56). its a very calm vid but they overdid dropships. 4 stars!

[reznov4]

times change

[semillasdelorto]

I never played HL2 but this video makes me feel many diferent things.... and I love to watch it, it makes me feel so good.

Thanks.

[Jordyy11122244t]

lol. ill sum it up for you. black mesa made a portal to another universe. zombies came in. combine came into too. combine take over cities and their base is city 17. the CP are humans or sub human, and combines or subhumans. people in city 17 get treated like shit. however, gordon freeman arrived, and all hell broke loose. dont yell at me if i made a minor mistake

[Slickmic333]

all i have to say is you did a good job on this video, thats all i have to say

[tomkasto]

Meh, of all the comments that's being uttered every day i think ''Get a Life'', ''LoL'' and ''Fuck You'' are the most common ones :P

Besides are you a Half Life fan or not?

Then you should atleast get into the story and atmosphere instead of just acting like it's just another action shooter mixed with some puzzles.

But this ''conversation'' is useless.

Don't answer to my comment.

It's will lead no where and just take away your attention from this Half Life vid.

Bye bye.

[tomkasto]

Remember the beginning of Half Life 2?

Before you escaped running on the roof?

The combines were going into peoples homes, they were afraid and they beat the living shit out of them and let people stand next to the wall and gun them down.

Like the nazis.

[Bashaza]

U need a life

[tomkasto]

If the combines were human and if Hitler live in the future , the combines would be his army.

Look at the beginning of Half Life 2 when the combines go to the humans houses just like in Warzawa and kill them.

Combines= Nazi from the future but this time the whole human race is the victim.

[NerdyVic287]

nice

[Bullen2k]

I love it!

[Resurrectedfantasy]

Lovely <3 You managed to show some of the beautiful sides of that corrupted world

[WeEatBrainz]

[LEGOstart]

[SorbEx466]

People PLZ tell me the name of the song!

[Spartan1430]

The decemberists - Summersong.

[stickman4EVA]

Don't listen to spartan1430, it's just called 'Summersong'.

[Trytodo94]

Spartan said it almost. The Decenberists are the Artists and the Song is called Summersong.

[stickman4EVA]

I know.

[kirielvids]

he is saying that it is by the decemberists retard

[stickman4EVA]

I know he was. He asked for just the song name, and I thought Spartan's answer might confuse him:P

And I happen to have an I.O of 156 and 14 awards from school in maths,science,english and computing...So who's the retard here? hahaha...

[kirielvids]

wow. you mean I.Q.? yes you are still the retard

[stickman4EVA]

Yeah, I meant I.Q. Just a typo :P

and how am I the retard? Just because I miss-typed an abbreviation that makes me a retard? We all make mistakes. And when you typed that had you not slept for 31 hours like me? haha, didn't think so.

[kirielvids]

yes. if you think that eveyone in the world is to stupid to know what the difference between an artist and a song then you are retarded. plus if you were to type "the decemberists- summersong" you would still get the same results.
