	Everytime you play a video game, a comic book dies - Joystiq
		Comics and gaming should go hand in hand (Marvel produced Halo series anyone?) and it seems to be a cop out to blame video games for a drop in sales.
		They were entirely awful, and it was this period that the comic shed most of it's audience - in recent years, the readership ahs gone up and down, but its mostly more stable than the free fall they experienced while "talents" like Millar were working their "magic"...
		Comic books are supported only to keep their intellecual property relevant.

	Zzzax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zzzax (sometimes spelled Zzaxx) is a fictional character, an elemental supervillain in the Marvel Comics universe.
		On one occasion, the Hulk's long-time antagonist General "Thunderbolt" Ross, had his mind transferred into Zzzax's body; he was able to dominate Zzzax's mind, though Ross was killed afterwards.
		It was recently imprisoned in "The Raft", a prison for supervillains, where it was freed by the electricity-manipulating Electro.

	:: Welcome to Manila Bulletin Online ::
		But no matter how one views it, HalfLife is undeniably one of the most popular PC titles ever made.
		PC Gamer magazine said it is "the best PC game ever made," giving HalfLife 2 a review score of 98, the highest score bestowed by the magazine in more than six years.
		In this installment to the HalfLife story, the player once again takes the role of Gordon Freeman, the research scientist who is continuing his fight to stop an alien invasion.

	Amazon.co.uk: Doctor Who: Halflife (Doctor Who S.): Books (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Halflife deals, albeit temporarily - with the amnesia that has been plaguing the 8th Doctor since The Ancestor Cell.
		The first half of the novel is languid, with the Doctor and Fitz exploring Espero and going through a bit of mind-swapping - the latter half is overly busy, with numerous aliens and concepts struggling to be fully realised in a short amount of space.
		Reasonably enjoyable, but Halflife is ultimately stronger on it's characterisation (the Doctor's amnesia, Fitz's hilarious erotic dream, Trix finally failing to go in disguise and starting to reveal her own character) than it's plot.

	DC Comics or Marvel? - Beyond3D Forum
		Yes, I don't know what it is, but DC comics have always ben more appealing to me than Marvel.
		Also, there's always been more to comics then just super-heroes, by example, recently I read The Preacher (from DC) and that was really, really good.
		Marvel's Epic branch released them early on in comic and graphic novel form, and Dark Horse has it now, releasing 6 large graphic novels a few years back--which is generally what you'll find on shelves now if anything.

	Vive Le Gutter!
		It was about how videogames were being written about in the way that comics were being written about a decade ago -- when the term "graphic novel" was coined -- where comics were being touted as the new literature, and comics like Watchmen were being studied in universities.
		The article brought up the point that although comics had certainly changed since then, they hadn't become respectable, and that the same was likely to happen with video games.
		There's a line of argument in the fandom of science fiction, gaming, and comics that this is a great injustice, that these genres should get more respect.

		For the comic, I mainly pose the characters in the positions I want, give them facial expressions, and take their pictures.

	COMICON.com: RICHARD MORGAN: The Things They Say About HIM & THE BLACK WIDOW
		I think very often superhero comics sidestep an intelligent analysis of crime in favour of the simplistic good guys/bad guys face-off model, which to be honest I have very little time for — mainly because, in human terms, it’s just not very interesting.
		I never read comics as a kid, and was first introduced to the medium by a fellow student.
		I have a passing acquaintance with the Marvel and DC universes, but I have to confess to a general lack of concern with universe dynamics and continuity — in the end, we’re in the business of fiction here, and good fiction makes its own rules and sets its own boundaries.

	Graviton - Marvel Universe: The definitive online source for Marvel super hero bios.
		Setting up a base of operations in Los Angeles, Graviton attempted to unite all of the criminal mobs under his leadership, but was thwarted in the attempt by the newly-formed West Coast Avengers.
		Almost immediately afterward, Hall escaped from custody and formed a group of villains based on the four 'Fundamental Forces' with the villains Halflife, Quantum, and Zzzax.
		Although he temporarily defeated the West Coast Avengers once more, he was eventually thwarted when the Avenger Tigra turned the villains against each other, and Hall's floating island shot into the atmosphere.

		Their new cd, "UNLEASHED MEMORIES" just came out in Europe, and will be released in the US on March 20 (that will a bonus disc of last year's HALFLIFE EP).
		IF you are a fan, and do not own the HALFLIFE EP you might want to wait till march to purchase the cd, HOWEVER, if you do have to the HALF LIFE EP, and don't want to wait(like me)...LOOK AROUND AT SMALLER INDEPENDENT STORES OR CHAINS, NOT IN PLACES LIKE TOWER OR SAM GOODY.

		The more complex lighting surface normals of the high detail version are then preserved on the low detail version, with the lower poly count.
		This method has been widely used in a number of modern FPS games, Doom III and HalfLife 2 amongst others, and is generally a great way to add complex model detail onto a game-usable version of the model.
		It does have some caveats, some things don't always cook out quite right, and some aspects require tweaking, but overall it's a good way to get a lot of base detail on the normal map.

		Though to be honest it seems more like an opening theme for a portfolio than a comic.
		The background I think clashes with the characters, but I could not bring myself to blur it more XD I put a lot of effort into the backgrounds of my comics, as you may notice.
		I really enjoyed making this comic, Squishy is a fun character to work with, and I've come a long way since the first comic!

		Like my dad says, "Movies are individual." He was referring to the fact that he might like one movie while I hated it, and vice versa.
		HalfLife got me involved in a story, so much so that I would go to huge lengths to protect the odd Barney the security guard or scientist.
		So for me HalfLife was a greater gaming experience because it had all of the things I looked for in a game.

	The Escapist : Forums : User Reviews : Review: Halflife 2
		Infact i didnt acctualy find halflife particularly hard at all but that doesn't rule out the gameplay flaws i described.
		But as far as i'm concerned, however good halflife's story etc may be (which isn't very good at all compared to the arts outside of gaming), it's gameplay is soo poorly designed that i cannot consider it to be a good game.
		I agree with indecisive, there's no 'tactical' way to get through halflife 2, it's a game about conserving every bullet, every battery, every health station (oops wasted 5 health, better reload!).

	Xbox Mailbag - July 19, 2005
		They should throw in Day of Defeat: Source, Counterstrike: Source, and Halflife: Source as well, like a GOTY edition.
		So only a small level, or a section of a larger level, being played is streamed in as needed, rather than an entire level, like in the PC version.
		As for adding Day of Defeat: Source, Counterstrike: Source, and Halflife: Source, it sounds like a great idea, but it doesn't appear as if they're actually going to do that.

		On the other hand, the test conditions as they were complied exactly with the conditions of the Doom III tests earlier this year, where ATI did not have the chance to provide a better driver for the tests.
