Dr. Eli Vance looks a lot like the actor that voiced him, Robert Guillaume as well.

Where did they get the Valve logo SOUND, now?
The Valve sound was from the Half-Life 1 soundtrack, I thought? Can't remember which specific song though.
That would be Hazardous Environment.

The guy with the valve in his eye really gave me the creeps when I was a kid.

Dr. Breen, played by Robert Culp, if I'm not mistaken. Died a little while ago, shame. I really like Breen.
I know someone [http://www.hlcomic.com/index.php?date=2005-05-01] you'd get along perfectly with.

OT: That's pretty interesting. Valve is a pretty radtastic company.

That Valve card gave me the creeps from day one with Half Life. I wonder how many coffees they got for doing their little bit for Valve?

Too bad he's dead... Or is he?
Not that I'm aware of. I believe it's the actor who played... Uh... The guy you see on the monitor at the start of HL2, who passed away.
That was Dr. Breen(You will be... missed.) whom you were referring to. I was referring to *that* other guy who died in HL2... Or did he?

That craps all over the "it's Marcia Wallace from Pulp Fiction" theory. Though in hindsight it was less of a theory and more of a conspiracy.

I always thought the first valve logo with the guy that had the valve eye was meant to be gordon freeman.

That's pretty funny, good on Valve! Now I wonder if those two know their face/head is famous...

And the music for the first splash-screen is also the music from Hazard Areas from Half-Life 2 I'm pretty sure.
