 It's Half Life 2!!, December 9, 2008
|
|

One of the best games to come out for it's time, and still has plenty mods and total conversions being made for it. Heck I was playing a beta of a total conversion that made it like Stargate, and another like Pirates...

 HL2...lets keep PC Gaming Alive..., November 23, 2008

HL2...lets keep PC Gaming Alive...forget all the comparing to other games, if its good great if not oh well at least they tried....then again, if someone was serious about finding out about a game, the very BEST way to do that is do research on the developer, in this case Sierra, they are the very first to break open into the PC, way before Id BTW. Id was the first to do was break into the FPShooter, Sierra was the first to break into the PC...

Not as ground-breaking as the first one, but still a chart topper., November 15, 2008

Pros:
Impressive facial animations
Great story
Game actually made me flinch
Cons:
AI is a little weak
Frustraiting vehicle control
End of the game is too easy
There's not much new to say, given the amount of reviews already out there for this game. My experience was a good one overall though. Graphics were great, even for '08 I still feel they were top notch. The physics in this game our amazing, something I haven't seen done well since the Jurassic Park spinoff 'Trespasser'.
The story was great too, a cross between Matrix type human slavery and Mad Max desloation made for a good backdrop. Like many other reviewers, I feel one too many questions went unanswered though. Cliffhangers are fun, but at the end I felt like 'what did I do all this for again?'
I suppose one can rest assured that all questions will be answered by Episode 3.
Overall I feel Half-Life 2 was a bargain at $10.00. If you like a well thought out action packed game, with only minor and inevitable flaws, grab this one!
One last gripe I have is the entity 'Steam'. Can we please lose this bad idea gone worse? Seriously, eat the losses you get from game piracy and quit being greedy.

Best Game Ever, October 17, 2008

Not really worth going into a lot of detail at this point: this is the best game ever. Period. I have played just about every FPS and it is unmatched. The AI, graphics, game play, scenarios. It is fantastic. Yes, getting it going is a pain thanks to Valve, but again -- its several years old and still can not be beat! If you are a gamer, do not miss this game. Although by now, I doubt there are a whole lot of folks who have not played it. Great fun, entertaining game!

 It's a shame, September 30, 2008

The installation process is really hard even if you have a decent Internet Conection, so much troubles for a game! Don get this wrong, its a very very good and intelligent game, even better than others recently release, but what it's the meaning of buying a DVD disc if you have to download the game from a server on the internet..thats make no sense. It's a shame !
