I agree that the physics equation really cant be patented, but I WANT HL2 TO BE 1 OF A KIND A SPECIAL KIND OF GAME THAT THE AGES WILL REMEMBER FOR ALL ETERNITY!!! The Gods shall smile upon Valve and say THOU HAST CONQURED your reality NOW BE REJOICED IN THE TRUTH OF THE UNIVERSE!!!!!!! WOOT

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE WANNA TAKE A GOOD IDEA AND TOSS IT ALL OVER THE FREAKIN PLACE!! LIKE COOKIES OR SLICED BREAD!!!

ONE IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!




PLZ DEAR GOD DONT LET THEM TAKE AWAY OUR GOD LIKE PHYSIC EQUATION!!! ITS THE ONLY SPECIAL THING LEFT!!!











THAT HACKER!! OMG!!! IF HE EVER GETS CAUGHT!! OMFG..........KILLING SOMEONE IS ONE THING BUT DESTROYING AN ENTIRE WORKS DREAMS AND HOPES OF THE FANS AND COMMUNITY AND DIRECT EMPLOYEE'S THEMSELVES!!!!!!!!! sdfdsafdsfsdfgdshjvkg3rwe8igt593ogy89dsfhg89dsoghjeophguierahboipahaieohgi9sdhg9dhygiuse

Ithaca, NY - Physicists at Cornel-Putnam University (CPU) confirmed yesterday the Holy Grail of Physics, the Grand Unified Theory, is contained in the Half-Life 2 source code. For decades Einstein attempted to weave together all aspects of physics into one grand unified theory, and although he failed many physicists have continued his work, seemingly in vain.

ehem...
the grand unified theory that
Einstein was working (and never succeded ,neither modern science -and you will know why) --but at least tried - (and now a gamedeveloper finally solved ) was to Unify all the forces of Universe ,some people suggest that he was including the force that makes life to exist and TIme traveling?.yes.. in simple words he was looking to solve the mistery of GOD in one equation . .what no human before ever imagined it was possible to even think about it. those forces are beyond the basics of Newton laws of motion (action-reaction) of objects motion,that usually we learn in high school and first year in college and that are used in game egines. like havoks. unless the havok engine can calcule Electromagnetic energy,atoms ,light pulses,waves behavior in space ,electric fields , and the clasic laws of motion in just one beatifull equation and the forces of gravity ,even the ones inside balckholes in the space , i dont think that article could be taken seriously..
if that the case ,then i dont see the annoucements in news of the last frontier in science being solved by a company dedicated to make game development. sorry folks.. havok physics rocks ,but they dont solve all the troubles of modern sciences like the article above seems to suggest.

Ur missing the point entirely. The point is that valve made a really great equation for physics. Now some Doctor h4x0r wants to steal it and post the shit all over the frikken place. He is pretty much saying, if its scientific it should be public knowledge.

F*CK HIM!!!

LET HIM SPEND FIVE F*CKIN YEARS IN VALVE OFFICE WORKING HIS ASS OFF TO FIGURE IT OUT HIMSELF!!! AND BTW, IF HAVOK IS PHYSICAL WHY ISNT HE SUEING THEM. ITS SCIENTIFIC!! BASTARD!!!

I don't care if the equation is ground breaking or not, as long as valve created it, he should have rights. Enistien never had to realease his E=mc2 equation he did because he wanted to.

*coolio2man dies again

Oh my God. Ever heard of satire/sarcasm people? Jeez.

It's supposed to be funny!!!

I sincerely hope that no one actually took that article seriously. If so our society is doomed.

I don't think valve are breaking new ground in the world of physics - I think they just want to protect their baby.

Equally, if they have found the holy grail of physics by some weird coincidence then they should out the knowledge, as it is of public interest.

For now it ends up as a suing contest between two parties...

I'm pretty sure this was meant as a joke... i never realized people could take stuff like this seriously... ffs they have a picture of Einstein slapped on the cover of a HL box and links to "related articles" about a gamer opening up a time-continuum. hahahahaha.
