Okay, Gordon is a player what we controlled on game, Beat Dr.Breen, Friend of Barney, and the Unknown Gman (Gordon Freeman??). Type your answers here!!

Uh... I wouldn't call G-Man Gordon's friend. And he definitely isn't Gordon. That subject's been discussed to great length here before.

But, yeah, what's the question?

Gordon Freeman is a guy used to name the player that we manipulate in the game. maybe it just popped out of valves head then Gordon freeman is born

They came up with the name during lunch one day. It's in "Raising the Bar" :)

Gordon = Gordah = Goprah = Oprah.

Gordon Freeman is Gman from the future.

He's also John Freeman's brother. (Full Life Consequences) :^_^:

LOOK!!! GORDON FREEMAN REALLY EXISTS!!

*points at rimrook's picture

:walter:

There have been many tales of the link between Gman and Gordon Freeman. Some say Gman is the future Gordon. I personally don't believe so because Gordon Freeman doesn't speaka englisha. Actually, he doesn't speak full stop. Gman has quite an impressive vocabulary so I doubt this. Gman also makes reference to his employer on several occasions, that may be gordon freeman. Otherwise Gordon Freeman is a very dishevelled, quiet, dumb (alyx does everything for him) theoretical physicist aka MASS MURDERER OF ALL LIVING THINGS!!! If Gordon had just died in that stupid tram then the whole world would be saved but nooo. Gordon had to come and give everyone a hard time just os he could kill some aliens and go to an alien planet! BIG DEAL!! I HATE GORDON FREEMAN!!! :freeman: + :pwned: = :biggrin:

He's good at teh maths. He does his homework and turns it in like the rest of us. No need for speech.

Gordon's not dumb. Maybe you just suck at playing as him? :P

Arrggh, i'm just imagining how bad the entire HL series would be if he spoke.

Alyx: Gordon... be careful out there. blushes
Gordon: STFU BITCH!

Dr. Kleiner: OK Gordon, its your turn - into the teleporter you go.
Gordon: Nooooes, its gonna breaks!!

Do I really need to say it?

I think he meant that over here we usually get only the "best" series, and not the crap ones.
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-18 18:26:02 UTC Post #250149
Methinks not. If that were the case he would have said "the good tv series", not simply "good tv series". U c wat I did there?

@Tet: Agreed.
Gordon is... Gordon... who is G-Man? Who is Breen? Yeah... there isn't much story behind many of them... its like... ValvE probably doesn't have a story for them yet... =P
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-19 17:20:31 UTC Post #250167
Who is Breen?
erm...Breen is the old Black Mesa administrator who managed the Earths surrender to the combine, thus being rewarded with power over the Civil Protection and combine soldiers.

Thats all explained in HL2.

But that's what he did. No story behind him himself.
Like Alyx we know was Eli's kid, lost her mother, grew up partially in black mesa, the rest of her life fighting the Combine.
She's probably got the most detailed story behind her.

question : Why :freeman: choose a crowbar not a knife?
question 2: Why GMAN Carrying a case? What in that case?
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-19 20:55:53 UTC Post #250176
@1: Crowbar reaches longer, and i suppose if it's used right it's more effective. Besides, he randomly found it and needed protection, knives usually dont just lay around.

@2: That's just it, for him to know, us to find out... later.
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-20 00:07:54 UTC Post #250179
Methinks not. If that were the case he would have said "the good tv series", not simply "good tv series". U c wat I did there?
I think you are a bit too picky. I'd like to see you write in a language that is completely different from your native tongue and get it right 100% of the time. Besides, he's right, we usually just get the series that are already popular in the states. :)
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-20 02:37:04 UTC Post #250181
Q1. Gordon carries a crowbar because:

A: It is the first object he finds that could be used as a weapon.
B: Its original. Knives are boring.
C: More power behind a crowbars swing than a knife. Useful for breaking shit.

Q2. His lunch, a Nintendo DS and some porn.

Seeing Gman play a DS would be the most hilarious but also most disappointing thing to ever happen in Episode 3.

In truth I think he carries nothing in it, it's a bit of a ruse to make him seem more human in Gordon's eyes.

inside Gman's briefcase

Which consists of:

1 sidearm
3 no.2 wooden pencils
1 card size pocket likely carrying something of that sort
1 document that I seem to see charts in that manner of some kind of wave, T, and a circle, as well some kind of math notation on the top part of the document.

Of course, I can only zoom in so far... but there ya have it.

The fact that it's never seen in game makes it's canonicity questionable, though.

I don't think we'll really know anything more about "Gordon & Friends" at the end of the HL2 series. Like that annoying TV show "LOST" i quit watching after 3 years of headaches, confusion and watching people spending half the show wandering a stupid jungle (I could swear i've seen that tree before!!!)

Also, the crowbar has become the HL Icon. They may NEVER make a HL game without a crowbar. i spit on anyone who thinks otherwise :walter:
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-22 23:14:01 UTC Post #250276
Agrees with Hotdog.

Without the Crowbar...half-life would have never been existed (also TWHL)
Posted 16 years ago2008-05-23 00:06:10 UTC Post #250278
Besides, he randomly found it and needed protection, knives usually dont just lay around.
In real life though, crowbars are some of the last things you'll find laying around. Honestly, they're pretty hard to find at all, anywhere. Probably why Barney is so angry at Gordon for losing his all the time. Knives are far more common.

If Dr. Breen send a :combines: :combine: to fight Nihilanth, Who's win? Nihilanth or dr.Breen?
