Haha, Ian Riley.

*sexyface* Baby I know.

Humans are no strangers to war. After all, we’ve been fighting for as long as we can remember. War is all we know. In the past, we fought for emulsion. We fought for country. We fought for freedom. But all that changed after E-Day. For fifteen years, we have been fighting for our very survival against inhuman, genocidal monsters. But it is a fight we cannot continue. Humanity faces extinction, unless we end this war now. We had hoped the Lightmass bombing would decimate the Locust Horde, but they survived… and have returned stronger than ever. They’ve brought with them a force that can sink entire cities. Even Jacinto, our last beacon of hope through all these dark days, is now at risk. Soon, we’ll have nothing left to defend. And that means, we have only one option… attack. Gears, what I ask of you now is not an easy thing, but it is necessary. If we are to survive, if we are to live long enough to see the seasons pass, our children grow, and experience a time of peace that we have never known, we must now take this fight to the Locust. We will go to where they live and where they breed, and we will destroy them. This is the day we take the battle to the heart of the enemy. This is the day that we correct the course of human history. This is the day we ensure our survival as a species. Soldiers of the COG, my fellow Gears, go forth and bring back the hope of humanity.

Microsoft at E3.

War. War never changes. Since the dawn of human kind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing power of rock and bone, blood has been spilled in the name of everything, from God to justice to simple, psychotic rage. In the year 2077, after millennia of armed conflict, the destructive nature of man could sustain itself no longer. The world was plunged into an abyss of nuclear fire and radiation. But it was not, as some had predicted, the end of the world. Instead, the apocalypse was simply the prologue to another bloody chapter of human history. For man had succeeded in destroying the world – but war, war never changes. In the early days, thousands were spared the horrors of the holocaust by taking refuge in enormous underground shelters, known as vaults. But when they emerged, they had only the hell of the wastes to greet them – all except those in Vault 101. For on the fateful day, when fire rained from the sky, the giant steel door of Vault 101 slid closed… and never reopened. It was here you were born. It is here you will die. Because, in Vault 101: no one ever enters and no one ever leaves. Well, that works.

Banned because I'm sorry, it was a bad joke.

Banned for washing dishes.

Banned for dubstep.

Verra verra kewl. To be honest, that's something I'm surprised Google hasn't included yet. You can cache maps, so why not be able to cache Street View as well?

I've got the best of both worlds. During final exams, one of my teachers came into class singing "Another One Bites the Dust". Was not comforting.

Cathy Westluck? Sweet.

Ouch, man. I can somewhat relate.

Nice name. Asigan backwards is Nagisa.

Yup, it was in the "Nightly Roundup" for that day:

Ah, yes, I see. There's a sound file in HL2 of that guy going: "Hey! Stop that! What the hell are you doing? The Vorts are on our side now." ...or something like that.

Tara is best human.

And it's still the stupidest thread on the forum.

It's still uncalled for, pointless, and doesn't need to be in this thread; or on this forum.

Well, sorry. My point was that mod or game, those videos are of the horribly outdated alpha leak.

Nope. I've tried it. Then why is there a dialogue line for it in the game files? I guess they just didn't end up using it...

Was that really necessary?

Yeah...the alpha has been around for years. And is in no way representative of the current state of the mod.

Actually, I think that if you shoot the vortigaunt, the guy tells you knock it off.
