Half-life 2. The most gorgeous game to hit consoles. It's just like the computer version, but on xbox. If you have a high end, and I mean high end computer, get the pc version, but the xbox version still delivers on all fronts. The graphics are the greatest in any system, on any game. The physics are tremendous, and can be use to your advantage. It's not to hard, it's not to easy, it's just right. The AI isn't exactly full of Steven Hawkings, but it's still a pretty smart bunch o' fellas. The game is about 11 hours long. The really cool thing about this game, other than the awesome physics, great action sequences, and absolutely mind numbing graphics, is the way you do things. It's like, you choose where you want to go. You don't notice it, but the game forces you to go where you go to. I have no idea how they did it, and I don't care.
The Break Down:
Sound: 9 -- realistic, and really happenin'
Graphics 10 -- OMFG, Valve hax!
Gameplay 9 -- Doesn't get old, and the physics top it all off
Length 8 -- Not the longest knife in the drawer, but it's definetely longer than Halo
Story 7 -- Not the games strong point, and doesn't make a whole lotta sense, but it passes.
The Bottom Line:
8.7 out of 10. It's a very worth xbox/pc game. If you own an xbox, get this game!
