Sure this isn't all just some april fools joke?
 
wtf why doesn't the board use aspect-correct scaling?
It scaled the height of your image, but not the width.

nvm it evaporated is scaled right now.


It seems that the image starts out scaled properly. When I click on it, it switches to the full-size version. But when I click again, it only switches the height, not the width, so it's flattened.

Anyway, that's weird, reminds me of the Hydra enemy they eliminated during an early playtest of Half-Life 2. It was a blue vapor tentacle shaped kinda like that, but they said it was hard to see or hard to target (It IS a tentacle ffs) and it kept killing people from out of nowhere, so they dropped it.

Why is the image cropped to a weird size, anyway?

I think it's just smoke from the gun.
I don't think the pistol makes orange and green smoke that curves and forms spikes. Does it?

It may just be art, to be released in a couple of weeks as a teaser for E3. But I'll take this as confirmation that we should be seeing something at E3 for Half-Life. NDA and all
 
I'm going to vote April fools joke. We'll see what happens on the 13th.
 
Well, you got me, fischju2000. I just got myself banned from Neogaf thanks to your "scoop". :lol:

(Damn, can't believe I was that gullible, but who doesn't hope for ANY news on Episode three. I hope that excuses my excitement)
