Is out next Thursday. Looking forward to more of the HL story...loved HL2.

Just a heads up really..so go get the preload done!

Anyone else looking forward to it?

PS There's a new teaser trailer to download on steam..looks cool. But how the hell do they make the video fade in and out like that? Not seen it before. :cool:

I'm poised to get this purchased...but will wait for some feedback from those here first. I can only imagine it being great though.

When I try to click preload or pre order in Steam it gives me "The page cannot be displayed" error

Any ideas?

steam://preload/380

That't the shortcut to load HL2:E1, try pasting that in your browser...

Did anyone else talk to one of the NPCs and hear him say 'sometimes i dream about cheese'? Very weird!

It's one of the characters on the train station chapter.

One of the guys at the beginning of HL2 you mean? If so, there is one who's basically lost his marbles and does spout some random stuff.

Yeah, thinking about it i think it was the same guy. He was in the train station right at the start of HL2 and in EP1 as well. Cool.
