new hl2 aftermath trailer

it's not very big, only about 30 secs. it reminded me a little of res evil.

i found it at http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/halflife2aftermath/media.html but i suppose it'll be all over the net soon.

Looking very very cool. I will get it when it comes out.

I'll be picking up the game, but that was a pretty s**tty trailer. 30
seconds long with most of it showing generic HL2 style scenes, nothing
new :sad:

Agreed, but it was still kinda cool. Those shaking pod things
were pretty neat. Who's voice was at the end? Some guys on
the Fortress Forever forums thought it was the G-Man, but it doesn't
seem right. Opinions?

Sounded like Gman to me.

I Ain't Gettin' On No Plane, Foo'

I thought Alyx stepping on the Antlion and shooting it in the head was
pretty cool - I wonder if that was scripted? I wish the trailer had
-gameplay- in it though. :smile:

I'm betting it wasn't the G-Man for 100 forums kudos. I'm a gonna win.

whoa. that blew me away. when is aftermath gonna f**king come out i want it!

"I would blow your f**king head off! ...if I could afford it. I'm gonna get another job, start saving some money... then you a dead man!"

AFAIK you get it free if you have HL2.

I think you guys are mixing this up with "the lost coast"; I don't
think there has been any suggestion that Aftermath is free, but I'd be
happy to be wrong :biggrin:

Aftermath is an expansion, it will cost money.

Lost Coast is free.

Lost Coast is free.

After substracting the cost of a new GPU, it's free, yeah...

Well, I was already planning to get aftermath anyway, and the trailer
didn't really show me anything that I didn't already know...

/offtopic Wow, first time I've seen everyone on at once...

Until Later...

More evidence that it won't be free.

Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Thats just the guide Crono, not the game, but I guess its still an
inclination that it will be a retail game. I have seen the game listed
for almost ?30 on one website, but only the guide book is listed on
quite a few other sites.

I'm not really impressed by the trailer. At the risk of sounding like a thicko, where the hell is Gordon?

Since you're still play as Gordon in Aftermath... you wouldn't see yourself in third person in a trailer.

Oh well, I'll get it anyways, I don't think that you're allowed to not get it.

Yes, I know. That was the point. You think I'd overlook something like that?

Of course it was. Hell, aren't you supposed to play as her?

EDIT: oops, my bad, that's the episodic stuff where you're going to be alyx. Meh. Still scripted.

It might not be scripted, there are plenty of games out there (Halo,
Republic Commando, etc...) that have NPC's doing similar things.

I loved Republic Commando...

But seeing how everything else in that trailer was scripted, I'd assume that that tid-bit followed suit.
