Yeah, I noticed that first with the Gunships. The moment a rocket would hit them, they would let out a scream (at least it sounded like a scream to me). Same thing with those Striders too... Damn, the Gunships had awesome vocals
Then again, maybe Valve stole that sample from the Metal Gear Solid Series
Heh, just thinking back to Follow Freeman, where you run down a tunnel with 1 lone combine soldier at the other end. You think to yourself, this is piss easy and I know I am being setup for something bigger. Within a few steps a Strider smashes through the wall behind you and gives chase all the way to the end of the tunnel. You barely have enough time to even turn around and investigate what the hell that loud crash was behind you because the ****er is charging so fast.
Actually, speaking of Striders, did anyone manage to beat the last Strider you meet in the very last level (Dark Energy or Dark Tower or something Dark like that). The suped up gravity gun obviously had no effect on it, and it was only while running round trying to dodge the thing looking for an exit that I saw those energy balls. Quickly as possible, I ripped them out and basically discarded them without even thinking about firing them at the Strider, I just wanted out of that place. Did they make a difference?
