Where is Spike when you need him?

As long they release a quality product when it’s ready.  
How many game companies push a game to release before it’s ready?  
Electric Arts comes to mind, EA really messed up some products that I liked…

@Ping_chan  
Just thinking about their attitude towards HL2 - it had to raise the bar, just like HL1 did in its time, so we got these really solid physics and facial animation that even some games today don’t have - makes me anxiously wonder what they might try to do for HL3 to blow everyone’s minds.

@thps48  
Yah, I was happy that they did that remake of Half Life 1,but I’m not sure how much time I can devote to replay the whole Half Life 1 game again.  
But just being able to ride that tram again in a updated game engine with higher resolution graphics, was really nice.

@Ping_chan  
I just want see Xen again. XP

@Align  
They just built the equipment to allow the monsters to come here.  
Although I think I remember that someone like the G Man had helped Black Mesa with getting pure samples of what ever kind of crystals they were experimenting on…  
God I wish Half Life 3 would come out so the Half Life story would continue…

Black Mesa didn’t create any monsters…

the Headcrab is blasted by a beam of energy
 
Rarity comes out…and sees that it was Gordon Freeman who saved her
 
Rarity: I know you! You are the father of Vynil’s human counterpart!
 
Gordon Freeman (in sign language): Are you OK?
 
Rarity: Right, sign language…let me use my magic to establish a telepathic link…
 
Rarity’s horn glows
 
Gordon Freeman (telepathically): I said, are you OK?
 
Rarity (telepathically): My mane is a bit frizzled, but I’m otherwise fine…what was that hideous thing?
 
Gordon Freeman (telepathically): A Headcrab. One of the monstrous creations of Black Mesa. After I destroyed Black Mesa, some of their experiments must have crosssed the Portal and entered Equestria.
 
Rarity (telepathically): Black Mesa…those mad scientists you used to work with? The ones who were working alongside the Chitauri?
 
Gordon Freeman (telepathically): I don’t know how many of the experiments have fled to Equestria…and believe me, Black Mesa has created far worse things than Headcrabs…I need to stay here until I make sure every single one of these monsters is wiped out…however, I understand how unusual it is for you Ponies to see a human walking around in Equestria…
 
Rarity (telepathically): Say no more, Mr. Freeman! I’ll tell Twilight about this, and she’ll let everypony know about your presence!
 
Gordon Freeman (telepathically): One more thing…
 
Rarity (telepathically): Yes?
 
Gordon Freeman (telepathicaly): Victoria…my Vinyl…she says hi. She told me to tell you that she is grateful for you sending Tirek to Tartarus.  
Gordon Freeman:

I think those things in the Combine’s forces are organic. ;3

@Background Pony #9511  
or a the giant crab thing.

She must build a giant fancy robot to defeat the bug!

I wish I could upvote and fave every single comment in here, because they are brilliant!

No. Now get them back into their universes because we dont want to inspire crossover episodes.

Is there a spell that can turn you into a Steel Type for Poison Immunity.

This is more than a normal responce because she doesnt have an HEV suit that deployes a cure to its poison which is said to kill you in seconds because its size makes it hard to latch on to ones face so they take your body after you die and 10 other crabs will latch on with it because the poison has something in it alowing the human body to swell up and alow more space for the crabs to latch on unlike the normal/fast crab where there really is no space for another crab to join in on the human body.
 
This was meant to be said by a scientist before you go into ravenholm but Valve felt it sort of spoils the horror of Ravenholm because the scary thing about it was the rape fest of new types of crabs coming to fuck your shit up.

I really hate poison crabs because not only do they lower you to one health in 1 hit they also take a million bullets along with them normaly latching on to some one but when they do it they cary like 20 other crabs on them and they fuckin scream in your face.

Oh lol, first I thought it was a Chaurus, but then npc_headcrab_black (or npc_headcra_poison, because Valve can’t name shit consistently)
 
lol

Watch out, Rarity! Where there’s one poison headcrab, there’s bound to be more!

I don’t blame her, poison head crabs are the fucking worst.

I knew Rarity had crabs! I knew it!

It is a poison head crab, this is a perfectly natural response.

What always annoyed me is that all of the other ones were perfectly normal enemies in terms of how much damage they took, but you needed to essentially replace half of their body weight with lead to kill the poison ones.

Poison headcrabs and poison zombies. My two most hated videogame enemies ever. I hate them. Hate. Hate. Hate. Fortunately neither are very common enemy in HL2. Which unfortunately means they’re very common in EP1 and EP2, almost as if the level designers suddenly remembered that they exist.
