Questions About Half Life 2

[Rukus.]

Theres a few things that have been bugging me about Half Life lately that I haven't ever seen anyone ask.

• Why is Gordon so famous?
• Who were the other security guards at BM? They all looked and sounded like Barney but the only one that was the real "Barney" was the one at the desk during the intro. As a matter of fact the same goes for Eli and Kliener.
• How did Barney know where Gordon was? How did they know he survived?
• Was Gordon teleported to the train? Or was he in a trance when he got on?

What do you guys think.

Such deep questions...

1. He started the mess, I'm sure CBS did a badly covered story on it
2. Weak engine, that's why everyone looked the same, it was the 90's let it slide
3.?????????????
4.The GMan used magic

1) Because he's a physicist who mysteriously know how to kill things with guns. Despite being ridiculous, people like new things. Also because he has no personality, so players can have fun with him. Ever seen Freeman's Mind?

2) How many security guards/scientists did they need? Why do all the Combine look the same?[sh. I know.]

3) Telepathy.

4) He walked on, slept, woke up, and then walked around for 10 minutes on the train. [Edit] Oh wait, HL2 train. He was teleported by GMan from stasis.

1. He single handly stopped the Xen alien invasion in blackmesa and saved a bunch of people.
2. Technically they are all barney, Half life 1 was made in 1998, they couldn't make a ton of unique models for each guard, so they just used Barney, so he is the character in hl2. They didn't know he was still alive.
3. Gman puts people in stasis and basically teleports them where he wants to, but in the ending of Hl1 your on a tram, but that's just more like, we're traveling into the future thing.
