Half-Life 2

Anyone else play this? I know this thread is like two months late but I started playing through it again and it really is an awesome game. Probably the best shooter I've played. I hope Valve decides to do the episodic content through Steam thing.

omg hell of yes - best fps i've ever played

just when i was worried it was going to get boring, it ended.

The last few levels are amazing. How awesome was it when you were staring out at the museum (or whatever it was) and you hear Breen's voice come on the loudspeaker: "I'd like to take a moment to address you directly, Dr. Freeman. Yes, I'm talking to you."

 

[FalseTodd]

oh seriously! I thought the writing and the voice acting for that character (except for his bits at the end which i found 'meh') was totally brilliant.

I couldn't help but grin with utter satisfaction when I received the upgraded gravity gun. So much fun.

 

[FalseTodd]

omg yes - total way to renew the fun of that thing

I think i like the original halo better

Turns out the engine can only show one video overlay per runtime so when you're in the room where barney first reveals himself, and the professor comes on the video-screen, if you no-clip back into the docking area with the huge screen, here's the professor telling all of city 17 our plan!

oooof mapexdrummer didn't get the 'halo' memo

 

[FalseTodd]

helm - that's really funny!
i jumped right into GTA so didn't have time to 'play' like that
