Valve boss Gabe Newell intends to bring back the scares to Half-Life, the latest issue of Edge revealed. The interview also stated that the studio wants to broaden the game's "emotional palette".
"I feel like we've gotten away from genuinely scaring the player more than I'd like," said Newell, "and it's something we need to think about, in addition to broadening the emotional palette we can draw on."
As for what he thinks will scare players the most, Newell had an answer ready: "The death of their children. The fading of their own abilities."

Really, I still get creeped out when the lights dim and all I hear is that really fast zombie thing somewhere in the dark and my flashlight is recharging.
"We don't go to Ravenholm.." Anyone?

The only reason Orange box sucked on PS3 compared to the 360 predecessor, was because it was handed over to EA to have the PS3 version complete. Nothing wrong with that, however EA slapped it together and didnt remove the bugs.
Now when they FINALLY get around to making Episode 3, they need to actually work on it. Not slap it together.
They would make more money going multi-platform instead of whoring themselves out to just 1 platform and a PC.
Regardless of where it comes to, Ill be buying it. I just strongly encourage PS3 Development.

If they focused on a complete new sound board, put some more background music in, the games immersion will increase. Physics and a good storyline needs good soundtrack.

... maybe because you haven't been making games like Half Life recently. Please your fans by making another one. Problem solved

G-Man is more than just a haunt in a cheap hollywood esque script. As the story progresses and we see more and more of this mysterious man throughout Gordon eyes. Looking at his gangly face and ever present brief case we began to question Gordons sanity, or at least the reality he lives in.
Is G-Man representative of Gordon's career, or is he a symbol of a high caliber? G-Man symbolizes the pressing blank "business man". Neither beats nor human G-Man is freed from morals, ever pressing his human counter part into depravity in the name of money.
