Default Re: No Gamer Is An Island. Or: Why I didn't like Half-Life 2

Half-Life 2 takes place in this post-Apocalyptic world; it's supposed to be empty.

I prefer Half-Life 1 myself; I think it was more innovative for its time and I thought the environment/location was much cooler. Half-Life is a 10/10 for me, best FPS game I have ever played. It suspended my disbelief, absorbed me, kept me interested, and surprised me from start to finish. Very few first person shooters have done that. No One Lives Forever is right behind Half-Life 1 in my opinion for best FPS games ever.

Half-Life 2 is like Half-Life 1 with a better physics engine and a gravity gun.

That said, Half-Life 2 is what it is; a linear single-player game based around you, the superhero character. I could see why you wouldn't like it, but it's still a great game.
