I personally was not overwhelmed by Half-Life2.  I just didn't meet up to the standards that I am used too.  Hopefully HL3 will rise to the occassion and assert itself as HL1 did.

Half Life 2 has some of the best graphics, hands down the best physics, and arguably the best A.I.  Plus the game comes with Counter Strike Source!   
The game play is your standard first person shooter.  How ever after the first series of...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

It's here and almost as quickly it is gone!  I have been waiting at least a year to get my HANDS on it.  Half Life is in large part a reason why I stopped playing consoles for years and concentrated solely on PC gaming.  I have just finished this...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

At first, Half life entered the gaming arena with a big bang.  It was such a huge phenomenon that they had to make another half life.  I was astounded by the graphics and gameplay of half life 2.  I spent about half of my day the day I bought it...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Half-Life 2 has been a long time coming.  When Valve sprung the game on us around July last year, everything looked peachy for a September 2003 release.  It was a pleasant suprise to have such a blockbuster, triple A title suddenly seem so close...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Tremendous game!  I can't remember the last time a game pulled me in as deeply as this one has.  It feels more like an interactive, cinematic experience than a video game.

As many of my friends know (including my girlfriend), I'm a huge Half-Life fan.  I think it's the second best game of all time, on any gaming platform.  Why second best, you ask? Because I just finished playing Half-Life 2.  Be warned, for this...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Half-Life, the original game was a master piece.  One of the first games to have an actual story line rather then a run and shoot game.

On the 16th, I couldn't wait to get home to play this game!  When I got home, I had a slight problem.  Steam was running slow because everyone wanted Half-Life 2 that day!  Well, I waited about an hour and finally played it.  First reaction: wow,...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Half-Life 2 is by far my most anticipated game ever.  And now that I have finally played and beat it, I can say with certainty: Half-Life 2 has just knocked off the original Half-Life as my favorite game of all time.

Valve's latest title is, in a phrase, awesome to the max.  The graphics are state of the art, the storyline is intricate and suspenseful, the acting is academy-award winning, and game play is smooth and never dull.

To me, Half-Life 2 made a valiant effort to become the greatest game of all time, but I believe that Metal Gear Solid (the original) was the best ever.  This year, though, and in the past few years, Half-Life 2 is definetely the best game.  The AI...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Let me be perfectly blunt: Half-life 2 is nearly perfectly executed.  Were I able, I would rate HL2 a 9.5, but two things hold it back from being a "perfect" game.
