Half-life 2 or 2017?

Militarised police on the streets - check.
Authoritarian government - check.
An egomaniacal leader who is a puppet for a foreign power - check.

Now razorblade tipped flying drones… welp

For a YouTube video about a drone with a razorblade attached they managed to get the pretension level up into the danger zone.

I’m impressed!

Impressive. That’s so close to being Combine architecture that Valve could probably litigate about. Where is it?

It’s the Beetham tower in Manchester, UK. It was designed in 2003 at the latest, planning permission was given in October of that year.

I wouldn’t call Breen “egomaniacal.” Also, unlike the 2017 guy, he has an advanced degree.

Oh hell yeah, i forgot about that thing. That’s the building which creates really weird harmonics during high winds.

Hmmm maybe… still a puppet of the combine though! I always felt he had an inflated sense of self given his position.
