That citadel is great. That trip you make in that cabin floating around inside gives me the creeps. Like you are in some WW2 style war factory, makes you think those guys are in for the total control over human-kind. And you are right. I think the story is continued from HL1. This Gordon Freeman, is an ordinary doc(proof that everybody knows you around Black Mesa, so you cannot be a stranger form outter space
). He accidentaly opens a gateway, and ugly evil XENOs starting to invade the complex. He is not involved in this "accident" proof that he just seeking to get outta there. And the mercenarys also out to get him.

If you say so, but just think for a minute: It doesn't make sense. Why would sombody use Gordon to unleash an evil Xeno infestation(HL1), and then kill them off using some faithless rebels(HL2)? It doesn't make any sense. In HL1 Freeman is not even in the service of G-man, Gordon joins him at the end of HL1 becouse he got no other chance. G-man notices him becouse he alone slaughters a whole f*ckin army of xenos and mercs. (Or 'cuz he alone wears that funky looking orange HEV suit that talks
) This G-man is a crature of mystery. Who is him anyway? He is there in HL2 everywhere, just keep your eyes open: in the airboat mission when you reach the dam, he is watching you from the top of the dam control room then walks away. Or he is on a tv screen for a moment in the ruined house where you find the doll and the suitcase in the elevator(dunno wich mission). He is everywhere, he has control over time and space. He must be some powerful alien or smthg like that. You killed that huge floating overmind thing in hl1 right? Then who the hell is that ugly alien sonofabiach Breen was talking to in the almost-end of the game? Ok, well I'm waiting for HL3 now, or some expansion pack. I really like to know what's behind this story becouse HL2 just made more questions, and didn't answered any.
