Half Life 2 Reviews
Great storyline, great action, great weapons. The utilization of real-world physics puzzles gives this game an added dimension that other shooters don't have. The ability to utilize environmental objects as weapons is great, too. This is one of the best FPS ever created, now it's ported for the XBox. The game is proof that there are great looking shooters with compelling storylines. The story is so great that replaying the game is like watching a great movie for a second time.
Half life is def more real and sometimes you actually get chills from the realism. EVERYONE needs to get this game. I got addicted to this game and could not stop playing.
I got sick of Halo pretty quick becuase of the stupid looking aliens in that game. The only thing I can think of that I dont like is sometimes I get stuck in doorways for a sec and nothing is there to block me, same goes for croutching and crawling forward through vents and stuff.
Other that that, 9.99 baby. To me it blows HALO out of the water. Half life 2 is by FAR the best FPS I have ever played.
Really enjoyed this game, good graphics and story line. Wish it was a little longer and that you could play more than one player. Middle levels challegeing but end level to easy.
It is absolutely horrible. Playing Gordon feels spastic and overall very sloppy. The controls are uncomfortable and are not done well compared to other console FPS games. I seriously didn't even finish he game because of how crappy the frame rate was. They look fuzzy, and at times some areas of the game look almost unfinished. The graphics aren't as good as they are on the PC.
At times it makes the game unplayable. The only reason this game is rated above a 4.0 is that I have played the PC version and know how great it can be, so the parts that weren't totally screwed up really shine and brought my rating up 2.5 points. That is the source of our problems here. The Xbox can't handle Half-Life 2 plain and simple. There are also glitches everywhere.One minute you're jumping on a box trying to get up, then you get stuck, then you magically teleport to where you were trying to jump to and the box is gone.The worst of all is the frame rate. Just go out and buy The Orange Box, its a much better console version of the game that fixes all the problems of this version, not to mention it also includes the expansions, tam fortress 2, and portal.
Nonsense. For example, the early chase sequences all look like the L.A. With all the attention they made to character models you can't even interact with them like in the first game. The main character is basically a non-entity, so why would he have such a following in that world. Much of them are quite interchangeable with each other, within each of the main acts you pretty much shuffle them around and it wouldn't make much difference.
You're character seems to contribute very little to the events except for the finale. The A.I. river/Sepulveda basin. is bad, and clearly scripted which looks more apparent on open sized levels. This game has very little in story, it has ACTION SET PIECES.
Visually this is one of the most impressive games out there, and is pretty much the only element that makes it worth playing. People keep praising how good the story is.
