Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I get past the huge wrecked chunk of street?
1 of 10: You can't jump across or go around the big hole, so you'll have to go the other way and explore the dark area under the freeway overpass.
2 of 10: Find the small ramp in the back that gets you up on the higher ground, then check near the fire for a health pack.
3 of 10: Head on past that and into the nearby corner to find a side entrance to a basement.
4 of 10: Use the gravity gun to throw around the crates in the basement to kill the headcrab that's hiding there, then bust open the supply crates for goodies.
5 of 10: Go up the basement stairs to reach a floor with an empty room, then go up some more stairs to get to a floor where several cops have set up security monitors.
6 of 10: When you reach the room that has a big chunk torn out of one corner, move forward and use the pistol to shoot down the two cops you can see through the wall hole.
7 of 10: Then look down through the floor hole to see a sentry gun and an explosive barrel.
8 of 10: Shoot the explosive barrel to knock over the sentry gun, then drop down and use the gravity gun to dispose of another sentry gun.
9 of 10: After healing up at the health station, step outside to find that you're past the first big hole in the street, but not the second.
10 of 10: You can get past it on its right side by either jumping over the light blue car that's in the way, or by breaking the glass windows near the car and using the little side area with a supply crate to get around it.
