I don't even know how many ways I'm implicated in the "Domestic Terrorism Lexicon". Our government has taken the whole "if you are not with us, then you are against us" philosophy to the domestic arena. I'm not on any "watch lists" yet that I know of. Anyway, I'm going to catch the train to City 17 and see if I can aid the resistance in taking down the Combine Over Watch.

Maybe I need to have played Half-Life? Or are you telling us something here?

Hi,

Add me to the 'OMG!' list. Never got interested enough in
Half Life to do more than get started. Although I did try to use
Foxy to get a HOTAS configuration set up to play FPS games. That, too, was boring. And mostly a failure.
So, color me clueless.

Not likely.
My son plays a bit of Half Life 2, which I watch from the side.
The FPS perspective does nothing for me.

Ditto, though I never even got started (actually, I haven't even seen the game being played). I think the last FPS game I spent more than half an hour playing was Doom I.

If it made you chuckle or groan just a little bit, then I'm happy. :)

Played Half life 1 and 2 numerous times. Still didn't get it. Am I stupid?

Didn't you ever listen to the lady on the loud speaker... "Unidentified person of interest confirm your civil status with local protection team immediately." or "Individual, you are convicted of multi-anticivil violations. Implicit citizenship revoked. Status; malignant."
In other Combine news, I heard that Mexican officials were using thermal scanners before allowing people onto buses in Mexico City. So, this one applies... "Warning, malignant viral interface bypass detected. Polyphasic core reprogramming detected. Sterilizers and containment fields maybe compromised."
