[QUOTE=DemonDog;15831005]To be a badass. [/QUOTE] YEAH BOII. The song is a bit quiet so you're gonna need to turn your sound up a bit sorry. Couldn't find one with good enough quality. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VEd00FHKGk[/media]

[QUOTE=Yobdren;15822007]G-Man's true purpose is unknown. He was hired in order to follow Gordon and watch what he does in the original Half-Life. He offers Gordon a job and places him in stasis. G-Man exists in order to represent that despite there appearing to be the illusion of choice in game, everything runs linear. He's there as a plot device to explain why it's so straightforward.[/QUOTE] It's funny how Gordon Freeman is "The Last Free Man" according to the rebels when in reality he has no freedom at all. He is more enslaved than any of the citizens.

He is Gordon Freeman from the future :downs:

Wait, in episode 2, didn't Eli say the G-Man gave him the sample that caused the resonance cascade?

[QUOTE=Raiderz;15831344]Wait, in episode 2, didn't Eli say the G-Man gave him the sample that caused the resonance cascade?[/QUOTE] That sample didn't cause the cascade. [img]http://www.hlcomic.com/comics/concerned178.jpg[/img] Frohman did.

He checks up on you to see if you're on task.

Oh, he's just the mushroom that tells you the Princess is in some other castle. [OBLIGATORY PLUG]

Talent scout

If you look closely he is incredibly similar to gordon. I reckon he is a rogue goverment agent ;hence the G-Man (Goverment Man)

Currently g-man is there just to add a sense of depth in the story.

[QUOTE=Raiderz;15831344]Wait, in episode 2, didn't Eli say the G-Man gave him the sample that caused the resonance cascade?[/QUOTE] Actually, no. He just knew what would happen. [editline]11:29AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Talishmar;15836635]Currently g-man is there just to add a sense of depth in the story.[/QUOTE] G-Man is a plot device, which means he's the exact opposite.

[QUOTE=Raiderz;15831344]Wait, in episode 2, didn't Eli say the G-Man gave him the sample that caused the resonance cascade?[/QUOTE] No he had just whispered "Unforeseen Consequences" in his ear just before Gordon put the sample in the center of the chamber. It's been debated that Breen had contacted the combine far before the Black Mesa incident and had tainted the sample in order to become the world administrator.

He's an interdimensional bureaucrat looking across universes and dimensions for skilled employees who are very capable with combat. [editline]01:09PM[/editline] I guess he is the puppeteer of the universe in HL.

i think he is a alien or is some guy that loves stalking

[QUOTE=Yobdren;15838243] G-Man is a plot device, which means he's the exact opposite.[/QUOTE] Well, before him sending the message to Eli he had no connection to the hl2 plot.

Is Shephard still sitting in the air craft flying in butt fuck no where? G-Man is an ass if that's how he conveys people.

To scare the livining crap out of you, and create a interesting plot line that keeps you wondering and wanting more.

to T-bag every enemy before you get to them, that is why you see him everywhere.

[QUOTE=Yobdren;15838243]Actually, no. He just knew what would happen.[/QUOTE] Wait. if he knew that it was going to happen, that explains why he was talking to the soldier at Tactical Operation Command. Maybe he was warning the Marines of the Resonance Cascade

Check This out: In Episode 2 When they have the whole gman cutscene The Gman is talking in blackmesa and the screen behind him flashes showing breens face: [img]http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8708/breenpic.jpg[/img]

He has a magical hovercraft [editline]04:21PM[/editline] [QUOTE=MarioMan10CP;15919436]Check This out: In Episode 2 When they have the whole gman cutscene The Gman is talking in blackmesa and the screen behind him flashes showing breens face: [img]http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8708/breenpic.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] And what does this have to do with gman's role in the game ?

He's your old boss from Black Mesa, who is an alien, and keeps you from dying at the end of games by throwing you into an abysmal coma. Sound about right? Also like the cat in Men in Black his briefcase contains the universe.

You need to update your game. [editline]3rd February 2011[/editline] What the fuck, I posted in the wrong thread. :saddowns:

What th- GOD DAMMIT, MAN. HOW DO PEOPLE DO THIS.
