Opening: I love Valve's work in games and I love the series they have going named Half Life. This series kicks so much ass that shit comes out your overly large testicles and you start to wet yourself. It has great gameplay, story and people. In other words this game is by no means, like a 4 year old throwing a cat in the clothing washer, yelling to get attention in any way it can. Graphics: The source engine was amazing back then and its fucking amazing when I piss on it today. Games are still coming out these days that use the bloody source engine as it was in Half Life 2 pretty much unchanged (such as my most anticipated game of the year Left 4 Dead) and they look amazing. The worlds are linear but they are just open enough to feel like you have some sort of exploration ability. I like exploring shit. Really tasty shit. Gameplay: Half Life 2 pretty much has 3 different gameplay styles. Shooting, Driving and fucking around with wooden crates and all of them are handled pretty nice. I feel that shooting could be improved just a tad and there is far too many crate puzzles that had me stuck for hour after hour only to find out that all I needed to do was pick up a fucking crate and drop it on a seised up toad in order to make the toad explode and lock down the door code so that I can open the door. Though most the world is interactive which means I am free to pick up things, play on swings and flush toilets as many times as I please which is always fun and rewarding. Sound: Sound is great in Half Life 2. Gunshots are a little bit under the standard these days but when you launch something out of the gravity gun it makes different noises as it hits different things. That means I can hear the squish noises that my crate makes when its shards of wood hit a combines un protected boner. Appeal: If looked at Half Life 2 on the PC which means I got Half Life Death Match so there was a small bit of online multiplayer to be had in Half Life 2 but the single player lasts 20 to 25 hours which is a healthy time indeed (much more healthy than Hugh Heafners case of Aids). Its a fun ride the whole way through. Though if you don't own Half Life 2, I suggest you wait for Left 4 Dead in November cause it is gonna kick ass harder than half life 2 which means i'll be given a chesticle so bad that I won't be able to fucking walk straight. Graphics: 9.8 Gameplay: 9.3 Sound: 9.2 Appeal: 9.5 OVERALL: 9.6 |
