    It's getting deleted in 5, 4, 3, well I already deleted it.

    We spoke this over before I did it, of course.

    The G-Man's briefcase has had absolutely no impact on any of the games. It's just a briefcase, as important to the series as his suit or his tie. This, in fact, is the first any of us have actually seen anyone point it out, ever. It's far too specific and far too inconsequential to have its own page. So it's gone! Sorry! I'm sure you'll all survive without it, though. ;)

    Yeah there's no point to having a page specificaly about his briefcase, I know it's an intriging thing but it doesn't actualy have any meaningfull purpose and seems to be purely asthetic.

    I suppose if we were allowed to have pages on things like that we'd have people requesting pages for Gorden Freeman's glasses or Marcus Fenix's bandana.

    Exactly. We were just discussing this here at the office, actually. While Jeff and Ryan said on the podcast that nothing is too inconsequential, there IS, actually a limit. If we allow a page for the G-Man's briefcase we should also allow pages for the G-Man's eyebrows and the G-Man's shoelaces and the G-Man's little-ball-of-transdimensional-lint-under-the-left-lapel-of-his-suit.

    What do you mean we're not allowed to have a little-ball-of-transdimensional-lint-under-the-left-lapel-of-his-suit page.
