    Oh that's bull Gordon, I had no trouble at all at looking at her boobs.. Wait what? I mean…

    Edit: Holy crap how did I get to 48p so quickly?

  2. HoopleDoople on June 13th, 2011 5:19 pm

    And here I thought Gordon Freeman was out smashing scientist stereotypes (with a crowbar, nonetheless)…

  3. spplmj on June 13th, 2011 5:24 pm

    Gordon you've got it all wrong. Women have boobs so you've got something to look at while you're talking to them!

    Gordon Freeman is wearing a skirt. Cannot unsee.

  17. Paulrus-Keaton? on June 13th, 2011 7:09 pm

    Other instances:

    Eli Vance: Gordon Freeman. Heh, let me get a look at you, man…
    Gordon: (thinking) Oh god, a black man. Stay cool, stay cool… you're not a racist, just watch your words. Wait, did I use "black"? Fuck! I mean, he's a "minority"….. NO NO NO, "African-American". Wait, is he even American? Never really asked. Fuck it, I'll go with that. Yeah! yeah! Better to think that before I think "nigg-DAMMIT.

    Ask Samus Aran. She messed it up for all chicks.

  21. Uzumakiclan43 on June 13th, 2011 7:54 pm

    C'mon, Gordon! Resist those urges! Don't make me show the film that made me the man I am today! (sorry for those who are country-blocked)

  22. Dash12345678 on June 13th, 2011 8:17 pm

    You're suggesting that after Episode 2, he became aware that a female had started playing the series, and he was therefore unable to continue?

  23. Alpar on June 13th, 2011 8:25 pm

    CLOSE ENOUGH.

    "I had trouble getting through the military because I thought people looked down on me with absolutely NO grounds, so I call everyone an idiot just to feel better, I think she may have just been a slow maturer, but when she started talking, she skipped straight to her teenage years"

    Now, let's all agree that we at least spent a minute staring at her boobs.

  39. razorman715 on June 13th, 2011 11:50 pm

    Yeah, but that doesn't explain why almost every other videogame protaganist doesn't say a damn thing.

  40. shadow649 on June 13th, 2011 11:55 pm

    Everything is better with pretty girls. Like beach volleyball for example. But then again beach volleyball never happens without girls… thank god.

    Oh right me XD

  44. imnutty on June 14th, 2011 12:49 am

    you "talk" to the guy again, he tells you: hello welcome to city X
    you insist again, same answer
    you think, im not going to spend words in idiots like that

  49. Ultamia on June 14th, 2011 3:54 am

    Screw that, who needs Viagra when you got skill? I have trained in the arts of Erectsu-No-Garyoaketh-girtheru.

    Yes.

    …

    Okay I'm sorry.

    by the way the original was submitted 3 years ago into deviantart and it was only now that it had been submitted it to halolz…

  51. Kristoph Gavin on June 14th, 2011 4:23 am

    If Freeman has a headcrab on his face and is screaming in pain, is he having a conversation with it?

  53. Haeso5 on June 14th, 2011 6:02 am

    Remember kratlolz? We all want that back but that obviously won't happen, so I got an idea, Shawn. HALFLOLZ. We don't have enough Half-life related lolz, so make Halflolz! And no the lolz wont be half as great. They will be a fourth as great. :3

  54. Kristoph Gavin on June 14th, 2011 7:07 am

  59. CriticalQuit on June 14th, 2011 8:11 am

    Mario: The only people to talk to are annoying mushroom people, why would he want to?
    Link: Spends more time in dungeons than towns, and never NEEDS to speak in those towns.
    Kirby: Infantile, incapable of speech.
    Final Fantasy 1's protagonists: Seeing as how they were created out of pure fate, they didn't grow up and thus didn't have developed language skills.
    Quote (Cave Story): He lost pretty much everything in his memory. I guess only Curly managed to remember how to talk.
    Chell: Doesn't want to give the robots of Aperture the satisfaction of a response. (Valve actually said that)
    Crono: He was probably a mute the entire time.

    The only ones I can't explain are the ones from Golden Sun, as only the player character is mute but the player character switched from Isaac in the first, to Felix in the second, to Matthew in the third. Isaac didn't talk when you played as him but he did in the other two.

    I am slighty disgusted by the fact that this is the highest rated comment.

  61. HughbertEsq on June 14th, 2011 12:55 pm

    …Ditto

  62. HughbertEsq on June 14th, 2011 12:57 pm

    Its funny because it isn't true

  63. HughbertEsq on June 14th, 2011 1:02 pm

    I wonder if that'll be the mainstay of Freemans Mind when they get to HL2

  64. tmotom on June 14th, 2011 1:07 pm

    Looks like Mr. Freeman has a crowbar… IN HIS PANTS!!! Ha.

  65. tmotom on June 14th, 2011 1:10 pm

    It seems to not be on her side… Those jeans look awfully hard to get on…

    Great. Now every new post is going to be disappointing by comparison.

  74. penguindude42 on June 14th, 2011 6:24 pm

    Ninten: It's probably his asthma.
    Ness: A lack of true friends, perhaps?
    Lucas: He never speaks, ever. Not even when someone else is being the hero.
    Red/Gold/May/Dawn/Black: No explaination. Maybe they only talk to Pokemon?
    Sonic: Killer robots.
    Mega Man: Evil robots.
    Guy from Berzerk: Middle of a robot war. Haunted by a smiley face.
    Every Dragon Quest hero ever: ???
    Doomguy: All his coworkers are dead or brainwashed by demons.

  75. Lord_Science on June 14th, 2011 6:26 pm

    I think he misinterpreted "burn" for "Smash everything to pieces and then smash those pieces into smaller pieces with a crowbar"
    Honest mistake on his part. I once misinterpreted "Don't mess with the laws of physics" for "create a weapon based on black holes"
    That was not so honest though.
