- mikemil828, on 09/03/2008, -1/+193Kinda puts Scientology into perspective doesn't it?
- Quicksilver4648, on 09/03/2008, -0/+177Dugg for the creepy Tom Cruise Combine laugh.
- inactive, on 09/03/2008, -1/+90This is awesome stuff.
Half Life 2 really got the dystopia atmosphere down better than any other video game I have seen. - SumguyTwentyOne, on 09/04/2008, -0/+70Except Civil Protection isn't trans-human. They're just brainwashed. Combine soldiers, however, are trans-human.
I've played Half-life 2 too much.
Oh, and awesome video. Those costumes are really well done! - dyranios2, on 09/03/2008, -6/+59I thought it said Columbine at first....
- pbrent, on 09/03/2008, -1/+52This is what Scientologists actually believe.
- zerhynn, on 09/04/2008, -1/+36¢OMBINE ARE BURYING THIS DOWN. DIGG IT!!!!! FOLLOW FREEMAN
- borez, on 09/03/2008, -1/+36The original:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UFBZ_uAbxS0 - LurkingObesity, on 09/03/2008, -4/+39This a shockingly analogous to Scientology. Very well done. Hilarious.
- inactive, on 09/04/2008, -3/+32It was basically the leaked Tom Cruise interview regarding Scientology.

- h4mx0r, on 09/04/2008, -1/+25Civil Protection = Humans allied with Combine
Combine Soldiers = Humans converted into half-machine or half-alien or whatever for either volunteer or resistance(?)
Stalkers = Humans converted into half-machines due to resistance. - U83RMENSCH, on 09/04/2008, -4/+25ew.. why xbox?
- Lucas123, on 09/04/2008, -0/+19"Don't say you know it and then don't know it."
Yeah, totally. - Skab, on 09/04/2008, -0/+17Goto Nova Prospect and learn it!
- Awspire, on 09/04/2008, -1/+17Half Life, a game about the fight to restore the libido.
- xsmasher, on 09/04/2008, -0/+16"Children of Men" had a very HalfLifey feel - right down to the dystopian architecture and lack of children. If you haven't seen it you're missing out. Good scifi plus social commentary plus guns / explosions.
- Atomic05, on 09/04/2008, -0/+15"Uh, is Dr. Kleiner really telling everyone to... get busy?"
- fascistpig, on 09/04/2008, -0/+15I hope they don't make Half Life into a movie. It will only cheapen the Half-Life experience. I hope the game will evolve to a point where the game feels like more than just a movie too.
- hairyblue, on 09/03/2008, -0/+14those combine suits are awesome, i loved how it built up to the little action bit at he end
- RazorLobot, on 09/03/2008, -1/+15That laugh is horrifying
- i4mt3hwin, on 09/04/2008, -0/+13Thats because it is CG. It's the character model imported into a 3DSMAX scene, using VRAY to emulate near life like lighting.
- inactive, on 09/04/2008, -0/+13I want one of those costumes.
- Halsfield, on 09/04/2008, -0/+12i just have to wonder if scientologists out there are watching this or the interview with cruise and saying "man, this guy is talking some straight goddamn sense for once"
- graahBrains, on 09/04/2008, -0/+9It's very creepy how well the Tome Cruise interview translates into the Half-Life universe. Those were some bitchin costumes they had. and speaking of bitchin combine costumes:

although that looks somewhat cg. - Goosey, on 09/03/2008, -8/+17Really fantastic product values, amazingly well put together. Really makes me want a Half Life movie series.. That is some great scifi material and the world doesn't have enough good scifi movies. They should get the guys doing Max Payne to take it on. :)
- t3hbagel, on 09/04/2008, -2/+11I was just about to ask that.
Mouse and keyboard ftw. - VivaNOLA, on 09/05/2008, -0/+9They should get the guys who did Children of Men to do it.
- Clocked, on 09/03/2008, -1/+9Not really strange that it should fit so well to another theme...
- sexybobo, on 09/04/2008, -0/+8Civil Protection = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_humanoid_and_ ...
Combine Soldiers= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_humanoid_and_ ...
Stalker= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_humanoid_and_ ...
Barney was in Civil Protection as a spy. - ilikeeggs8877, on 09/04/2008, -0/+8you're on the wrong website man...
- evildemonic, on 09/04/2008, -0/+8Hands down BEST thing I've seen on YouTube in a very long time.
- petebot, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7Well...you heard the man! Let's get busy!
- dullnation, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7Then buy a better screen, chair, keyboard and mouse.
- Tooley7, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7Christian Bale?
- flipdoubt, on 09/04/2008, -1/+8Hey douchebag...
Why so serious? - U83RMENSCH, on 09/04/2008, -0/+7it already kinda does in my opinion.
if they ever did make a movie.. it better be on the 7 hour war.. or right before it.. almost like clover field.. but with half life themes. - Rosco, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6Interesting to watch, but I was bummed at the same time. I thought it might have been the next episode of Civil Protection.
http://civil-protection.blogspot.com/ - inactive, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6It wasn't until reading the Youtube video description and wondering "WTF?" that I realized it actually said "Combine"...
- Smokeydabear, on 09/04/2008, -1/+7I don't have a computer that is fast enough to run the game, so I have it on Xbox.
- BedPost, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6Prepare for unforeseen consequences.
- CommanderEFG, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6I wasn't expecting this. From the title I was expecting use of Garry's mod and probably a cheap laugh. I'm not afraid to admit I was way off. Very well done and it reminded me of the Halo videos that came out prior to the Halo 3 release.
- Nicoon, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6Exactly my first thought when watching the video.
course of events:
"I think it's a priviledge to call yourself a combine"
hey,wait a minute! Civil protection aren't combines!! - aelias, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6I'm going to play HL2 at work right now.
- petebot, on 09/04/2008, -0/+6Yeah, that's right...ctrl+f him all night long. You know he wants it...yeah...
- fasda, on 09/04/2008, -0/+5what about Stark in The Longest Journey?
- erisians, on 09/04/2008, -0/+5The Scientology bent made it just that little more creepy.
- occasus, on 09/04/2008, -2/+7Same here. That's why I ctrl+f'd you.
- Kronos6948, on 09/04/2008, -1/+5I think they should've credited Christian Bale for providing the Batman voice for the combine.
- MillionsLivio, on 09/05/2008, -0/+4If you don't like it get the ***** out.
