I went by the FAQ in the wiki to see if it differed from the forum FAQ. The thing about easter eggs made me wonder… what easter eggs where there in half-life 1? I can’t recall any.
Hm, I think those books in Gordon’s locker is one eggs, real books made by Marc something
And there are more but, I don’t remember =P
the sientist in xen
in the same location as the other easter egg, some of the names on the lockers are real dev’s names.
Gabe has his own office in black mesa.
In “Lambda Core”, near the tower with the portals, there is a dead scientist on the floor of an office. Written in blood on the floor are the numbers 2-4-7.
Highlight next line to reveal spoiler:
[COLOR=‘Black’]Room 247 is where the woman in the bathtub was in the movie version of “The Shining”. Laidlaw is a fan of Stephen King.
The Orchid Eater The 37th Mandala, books written in 1994 and 1996 by book author and now Valve game designer, Marc Laidlaw.
They are stacked in Gordon’s Locker in the beggining of the game in the H.E.V.Suit/locker room next to a picture of a framed “Baby photograph”.
I seem to recall something about a chumtoad?
That was in blue shift.
where != were :hmph:
In various places there is a picture of a person with big white eyes…
Edit: I think its easter eggs in his eyes.
I think it was in blue-shift:
One time I found chumtoads lair. I seem to remember swimming to the very bottom of a deep pool on Xen, where i found a hole which i went through to find the lair. But now when I tried again I cant find the hole!!! I just drown at the bottom trying to find it!
edit: Sorry for the double post.
Hmmm, never saw that!
I remember there being a ridiculous number of hidden goodies that can be found by investigating out of the way vents.
You actually have to find a crack and break it open.
the codes in half-life decay on playstation
Isn’t that only in Blue Shift?
naw it’s in HL1 as well
I dunno if what he said is true or not, but I do know that the 2-4-7 is actually there to help you pass the teleporter puzzle, you have to jump in portals 2 4 and 7 in that order.
BTW when I saw this thread yesterday, I wanted to post “in b4 noobs post blue-shift easter eggs” but then I thought you guys weren’t that stupid… True story.
That might be intentional, but it was probably because 2-4-7 was the order you had to go through he portals to get to the top of the reactor.
Thx for the replies. Most of those I already knew… I thought there was something more.
I didn’t know about Gabe’s office, and I totally forgot about the dev’s locker names when I made this thread.
Yeesh… I’m peruvian, my english isn’t perfect. Be more tolerant.
