    I only got into the Half Life series due to the Orange Box... so, this is good news for me, as I missed out on the first one. Nice.

    Ah, good times indeed.


    Maybe, instead of celebrating with a rousing game of HL1, I'll play the demo for the first time in a decade. (Remember the demo? "Uplink"? I love demos with original content.)

    Available for Mac, perchance?


    No?


    That's why I game on consoles exclusively. No love for apple-eaters. :(

    ... are you telling me that Penny Arcade started when Half life was released?


    This seems fortuitous? What else was happening on that day? I have to irrationally identify attributes of the environment and then ascribe significance to them!

    @deathbunny: i was rereading this the other day.. i'm still in amazement that Gabe's kid was born on the 10th anniversary of the Dreamcast, and that Tycho's kid was born on the Xbox 360's launch day. i'm not too surprised that they'd start the strip the day Half-Life came out.

    @deathbunny:Two years ago today, the Wii was released as well. At least something good came out of that interdimesional rift.

    @deathbunny: Oops, just realized that that could be taken in a different way. I was responding, in the second part of my post, to Mr. Houghton's comment "those idiots at Black Mesa opened a pesky interdimensional rift and let all kinds of horrible beasties spill out into our universe. The big dopes." I was not deprecating either party, but rather trying to say that the Wii came out of the black hole in Half-Life and it was the one thing that did since it was not one of the "horrible beasties." I am sorry that you misunderstood me as I believe both Half-Life and the Wii were great contributions to gaming. :)

    @Maxyboy13: Line 6 correction. I meant to say "...the one good thing that did." Darn you, nonexistent edit button!"
