I wish I got to do that, I remember when I was at a concert and Alienware had test PC's and laptops with Portal on them, I Sv_cheated the SHIT out of that game.
They probably don't even realize how jealous a lot of people are at this.
[QUOTE=ewitwins;32316027]... I think Valve should hold Hammer summer classes.
Finish the class and you get to have dinner with Gabe Newell. Not Doug though, he's a meany 'cause he hasn't let Gabe say anything about HL3[/QUOTE]
Honestly dude, if Valve ever did that. I'd sign up in a heart beat.
Lucky bastards,that'd be awesome to get to go to that with prior knowledge of hammer and just wow everyone with your mapping ability.
The Junior High I went to is called Evergreen, It's about 30 minutes away from valve, but the school they are talking about is [B]The[/B] Evergreen School, not my school. All that false hope.
Wow, that's pretty amazing!
[QUOTE=Alex_DeLarge;32316905]These fuckin' kids could do more than I could in Hammer :v:[/QUOTE]
All of the good maps shown were stock Portal maps
You know Gabe does have 2 children, maybe one of them was in this class and that's why they got the field trip.

The kid in 2:23 is his son

Gabe would slit his wrists without his knife collection.
I never had any cool field trips like that in 7th grade. Then again, I didn't have any field trips at all, except one to some boring local park.
[QUOTE=Swiket;32313200]I'm jealous. Back in my day we went to the fucking zoo and walked around in the hot sun in 95 degrees and were happy because we weren't wasting away in a {asbestos} filled classroom that day.

OMG ASBESTOS! CALL CAVE JOHNSON NOW!
Only me and 1 other person (my friend) are actual PC gamers out of my whole school, my estimate 2 out of 900-1000 kids, (high school) and he doesn't even play much of anything lately besides minecraft. I had one other friend who played PC and his Dad handed his old PC to him, and he doesn't even play it. All he plays is Xbox 360 with the majority of the people who play videogames in my school. I asked him why he doesn't play PC anymore, he said there's nobody on. So 2 people are PC gamers in my school, and one of them is me. Fuck I wish I could go to a valve field trip.

Gabe spoke at an event a few months ago where he premiered this video. [url]http://www.halflife2.net/2011/07/06/video-of-gabe-newells-g4li-keynote/[/url]
His entire keynote is definitely worth watching!
Things like this are what make me want to work there even more.
God I'm so jealous. The only reason I want to fly to US is just because I want to visit their office.
I have to remember to press e when i go to the toilet
I really hope Valve told everyone they could do this at home, it'd be a shame to teach them and they never touch it again.

Knowing valve, they probably gave them free copies of portal
What do you mean probably? I thought they actually did give that class those. Wish I could remember who game me the news. Forget it. Anyway, bringing in a school is more evidence Valve is going to develop more games for the younger audience.
This sounded a little bit too perfect.
And the "we rotated stuff in class now they are rotating them in software" bullshit.

but u cant slit with no knifes dude
so no
I don't necessarily agree with that, if you've ever taken the sharp claw of domestic or wild cat and driven it into the skin, you can draw blood. However, considering the games Valve made, why would Gabe also not have a collection of fire arms? I mean he is a big guy, there is no way he does not go hunting.
[QUOTE=exhale77;32369088]but u cant slit with no knifes dude

I'm pretty sure you don't need a knife to slit your wrists
[QUOTE=Cuon Alpinus;32378960]I'm pretty sure you don't need a knife to slit your wrists[/QUOTE]
omg stfu.
dude plese stop
So jealous of Gabe's son. Bet he get to play EP3 whenever he wants to. I'm also sure he's guaranteed a job at Valve once he gets older.
"Why is faceposer crashing when I open it?"
