Half-Life 2 Hints
Sentry Gun Tips
1 of 6: First, avoid the guns' end of the room and drop down to the next floor's walkway via the hole in the walkway you're on.
2 of 6: Duck into the open cell near the dead combine soldier, then look out the cell door to find some frag grenades and a pulse rifle on the floor next to the soldier.
3 of 6: The pulse rifle won't help against the sentry guns, but the frag grenades sure will.
4 of 6: Pick these up if you need them, then move into the large room where the sentry guns are on an upper walkway.
5 of 6: It's hard for them to see you and target you down on the floor below them, so take your time to carefully lob frag grenades at them.
6 of 6: You could instead use the gravity gun to throw barrels at them, but it's *very* hard to knock over these sentry guns that way.
