Forums - PC - Use the Portal Gun in Half Life 2, HL2:DM, etc!!

Well that was pretty cool.

Definitely works, the portals only work on flat surfaces, no obstructions...and there were a few light and particle problems...fire wasn't appearing when it should have...and of course since I was technically playing Portal, my health regenerated very fast, so it was nearly impossible to die...

But definitely sweet. Played some Ravenholm and had fun avoiding the traps and throwing objects through portals at the zombies hehe.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

I'm sure the Portal gun can break a LOT of scripted sequences in HL2.



Man it's hard to believe HL2 came out in 2004, less than 3 years ago...feels like a lot longer for some reason...

I like the style of the Soldier shirt...I'm gonna wait to see what the Engineer shirt looks like though.

I think I'm gonna get the Portal shirt soon though...I've put it off long enough...I already have the "Evolution" shirt...thought that was freakin sweet.

 are they going to bring out all classes?

 

how do u know an engi one is coming?

 

 i want them all, but its so much money haha.  I don't mind paying for clothes i love though... i guess 



Here's a video from my band's last show Check out more (bigger) videos here http://www.youtube.com/user/icemanout

$20 for a t-shirt isn't that bad...especially a great one like these.

I don't know if they're making an engineer one...I just assume there will be one sometime. If not...I may buy the Pyro shirt someday.

That's what I'm looking forward to.

 



This is cool. I was thinking of boycotting the Orange Box due to the fact I already own Half-Life 2 & Ep 1. So its not great value for me to buy it!

But I new a mod would become available (PC only) for something like this and to be able to use this throughout the game is AWESOME!!

 Contrary to your thought process, the Orange Box IS a great value even if you already own HL2 and HL2: EP1.

Even if you missed the pre-purchase discount, where the total package costs $45, it still only now costs $50 on Steam or retail for PC.  $50 for HL2: Ep2 ($30 alone, that's also what Ep1 cost when it came out alone), TF2 ($30 alone), and Portal ($20 alone)?  Great deal for anybody! 

Throw in HL2 and EP1 for those who didn't own them before, and of course it's the best deal in ages...but for you and me it's still unbeatable.  So I don't see why people like you talk about "boycotting" the Orange Box. 

It's doing a favor for those who never got to play HL2 and Ep1...it's not doing a disservice to you like you think it is.  Besides, you're free to give them to a friend over Steam.  I gave mine to Dolla Dolla...hopefully he's enjoying the games hehe.
