Half-Life: A Place In The West - Chapter 2
Take a break from city life and go to New Franklin, a modern American city run by the ultraviolent and isolated Major General Long. (No offense.) An enclave of survivors, the city is under attack from mysterious forces and Major General Long needs your help to defend the city. What's more, this strange new world has forced you to reconsider your morals, as the struggle for survival intensifies.
Half-Life: A Place in the West Second Edition is the sequel to the critically acclaimed Half-Life, which introduced gamers to sci-fi's most revolutionary physics engine. Half-Life 2 : Episode Two immerses players in a harrowing thriller set in a far more advanced version of the New American city of New Franklin.
It is your job to fight the alien invaders and defend the city from the merciless corporation Mr. Kleiner. Armed with the most ingenious firearm in the world, the "Super-Mauler" (named after the weapon's inventor), you will have to fight everything from the Master Lancer's gigantic mecha suits to an agile swarms of SMASH robots and the ultimate twisted creations of the Black Mesa Invaders.
Use new gear and abilities to survive a variety of extreme environments and defeat hordes of enemies. Players can choose to play through the game on three different difficulty levels from Normal to the nightmare-inducing Nightmare.
(In case you are not familiar with the Half-Life series, the game has been translated and enhanced for the PC platform as a special promotion with Steam. But since the game was originally released in 1998, it has been 12 years old and features an old engine. This is Half-Life 2's second incarnation, featuring a completely new engine that has been specifically designed for this game on a stunning new high-resolution graphics engine. It is the perfect way to experience this thrilling adventure for a new generation.)

How to get the using statement working in VB.NET 2010 Express
I'm working on a VB.NET 2010 Express and I've just upgraded to Mango from RC1. There were a few places in my project where I have the following:

A Very Modern Major General is a standalone, episodic game. It consists of eight distinct chapters, each of which takes the form of a standalone story containing various mini-games, puzzles, and adventure elements, all of which have been built around the central conceit of the game. The chapters have no logical order, and they can be played in any order, either from beginning to end, or in a single session of gameplay. The game's chapters alternate between the perspectives of Albert Kempinski and Leyla Poirier.
If you've never played a Half-Life game before, this is the perfect introduction to the Half-Life universe.

What's a Gravity Gun?
Here's what the standard Gravity Gun does:
It can speed people or objects up or down. It can move them really fast and it can allow them to fall for a long time, but it cannot hold them up in the air.
To activate the Gravity Gun, double tap any object and start moving it in the direction you want to push it. If you pull it back towards you (clockwise) the object moves upwards. If you push it forwards (counter-clockwise) the object moves downwards. It's very easy.
However, depending on how fast you pull or push the object, the gravity change can be slight and the object can float away from you.
Who is Albert Kempinski?
Albert Kempinski is an alter ego created by the author of this novel as a tribute to Albert Einstein – who was the first person to explain and experiment with special relativity – and to Iggy Pop – whose legacy of horror movie music, nihilism and bad luck made him a legend in the early 1980s.
Before the Half-Life universe existed, Albert Kempinski was the author of The Magical History of the Dark Side. While the book stood well-regarded as a work of fiction, Albert would sometimes create rival characters to stake claims and highlight his
