@stwert:
No I didn't know who Gordon Freeman is/was, I agree about it being a subjective thing/taste related which I mentioned several times, and I think Chirone did a terrific job.

@Daverave:
I don't think I am unfair, I haven't talked down anyones work ( at least tried not to) and about This:"... a new take or look of a game character ...", I think you have to see it like this take/look and in my opinion look in this context means revamp of a game character not simply putting on a different dress, but again this is just my opinion.
