    After a long wait from part one of the Purchase Brothers' fan film of the Half-Life universe, part two was finally released today. If you read the video description on Youtube they reveal that their budget for this was a whopping $250. The end result is pretty impressive, especially considering restraints like that and just by virtue of this being the passion project of a few fans and not some professional studio. It may not be Half-Life 3, but it gives you something to marginally ease the painful wait. What do you think of the quality of the short? How well does it hold true to the universe? Opinions, let's hear 'em.

    I think it's how people with just a little money can make some insanely awesome videos and effects, which are usually on-par with stuff Hollywood puts out (or at least close). The guys who did TLM also did "Dubstep Guns", "Clock Blockers: A Mind Bending Gunfight", and other amazing live action stuff. They did some "Cheats in Real Life', which was hilarious, and some other longer videos.

    I love the ingenuity shown in all of these.
