<div class="IPBDescription">comments and thaughts</div> The online embargo for Half-Life 2 previews ends at 3:30 PST \ 6:30 EST. At this time, you can expect GameSpy.com, IGN, GameSpot, and all the other big gaming news sites to post their previews and – at last – real screenshots.

Just one question... What time is 3:30 PST on GMT?

*EDIT*

    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->We spoke to Martin "Jammy Git" Korda from PC Zone magazine, one of the select few who has actually played Valve Software's sequel. He had this to say:

    "I've never been so nervous, or as excited about playing a game. I looked around [in the game], to find I was standing on a basic but sturdy wooden bridge spanning the gap over a river, whose shimmering water lapped serenely against the wooden beams.

    "Suddenly, tranquillity gave way to panic, as two hideous, faceless zombies came shambling towards me. As they approached, one of them picked up a barrel and threw it at me. Instinctively I fired, the power of the shotgun shell sending the barrel back at its attacker and making it reel in pain.

    "But the second zombie was still advancing. One well-placed shot to the head sent it flying off the bridge, coming to rest facedown in the water where it bobbed with the tide. But there was no time to celebrate. The other zombie had recovered and was once again advancing, intent on ripping out my lungs and using them as bagpipes.

    "And then, an idea. Aiming at the bridge just in front of my assailant, I fired. Shards of wood flew into the air just as the zombie stepped into the now gaping hole, flailing wildly as it sunk into the water, helpless as I finished it off. Even in that one short minute, the combination of many of the elements that Valve has incorporated into its game had come together in one sublime whole".

    Excited now? You should be.

    Screenshots are nice... but they are the same as the scans we already saw over and over again <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
