Half-Life²: Spoilers Abound!
What do you mean, "it will make more sense"?I agree on everything with you, except for on who the G-Man is. In that case, logically, it makes no sense for him to working for a government. He is dressed as what we have deemed to be a "government man", but I think...well, I think a lot of things. I don't want to state my theory *again*! You can read my last three posts in this thread if you want to read it again, ha ha.
And then Akon was like, Wooohooo! YEEHOOO!

You can read my last three posts in this thread if you want to read it again, ha ha.Ah, then thats perfectly logical. If you agree on mostly everything else then my work is done here. I'm sure Seirra deliberatly designed this game so that everyone would have their own opinion on who the G-man is. All I can say is that it is extremely unlikely that the G-man is actually Gorden from the future. Why would the G-man test himself in the face of serious danger if he knows Gorden (himself) is capable of doing it? Its still all fuzzy, but I highely and truely doubt that the G-man is Gorden. As far as him being a government official, well it really would make sense if he was. This offworld government has their handy man manipulating Gorden to wipe up the mess of the Combine, while at the same time he isn't exactly a defensless government guy. As we know, the G-man obviously can defend himself if needed; otherwise that guy wouldn't be strolling around all over the places of danger. Well... anyways... its fine for everyone to have their own opinion of the G-man - the one thing Seirra -really- meant to throw everyone off of. He is the key to the story, and when we find his purpose, we find the story to HL complete. (Cause as we know, if the G-man is some big alien getting ready to eat Gorden, the G-man isn't just going to kill Gorden - hes the hero and the hero always wins!!!)
Bob and I were just making fun of, "Gorden".We talked about AIM about that for awhile, ha ha. Just awaring you. Er...yeah.Also, to GW, and anyone who reads this, I am in no way trying to argue with anyone. Only logically trying to sort this out. This story is a great one, (in my opinion) that leaves the conclusions up to the reader/player.After looking things over, I really don't believe that Gordon is the G-Man.Two points that I have that are for the G-Man being Gordon.The first being that the G-Man always seems to appear just as Gordon is about to die, or is in trouble. One thing that is something to think about is that the G-Man says, "Instead of giving you the illusion of choice, I'll decide for you." He is Gordon. He knows what he will do. How that would make sense is beyond me at the moment.One thing that really disputes the G-Man being Gordon is the ending of Half-Life. he gives Gordon two choices: Die. Or, work for me. If the G-Man really were Gordon, why would he allow himself to die?However, the existence of Half-Life² proves that no matter what, you take his offer. Perhaps the G-Man, knews that his younger self would take the choice? All that I am not sure about, but what is for sure is that Gordon does take his offer.Assuming that the G-Man is an older Gordon, and that he would take his offer for sure, (the G-Man exists, so of course he does), is a big stretch and a completely new thing to think through, altogether.

The #1 issue would be, the second that the past you saw the future you, the future you would instantly have a memory fart.. nobody knows how that would affect you.. Some say it would create a pardox in time... nobody knows because time travel has never been tested... Though it has been said that time can be slowed down at the speed of light, that only opens up the possibilty of seeing the future but leaves you with no way back to the past. Which brings me to my next point.. How did they come up with the movie name "Back to the future"? It makes no sense, they werent in the future to begin with.. And once they got home they didn't go back until the sequel... I think the first movie should have been named.. "gone to the future" then the sequel "Back to the future" Then the third one "Back to watching the worst movie ever!"Also, If G-man IS gordon then he would know everything gordon is thinking.. Infact.. There would be no point in helping gordon since, G-man already exists. Gordon couldn't possibly die at any point in the game if G-man was Gordon from the future. Therefor I conclude that either the story is really stupid.. or G-man is NOT Gordon.
