| half-life 2 is a mess itself, practically everything beyond the first level looks like rushed unpolished crud level design. look at E3 2003 for an example when this game was coming out, everything was polished. |

| Don't get me wrong, while half-life 2 being great for its time just compare half life 2 at e3 level designs compared to retail version of half-life 2. Look at black mesa east, it looks like crap. The original HL2 was to have a much much more intense scenes like we have now with a huge one being the "gunship chase" |

i didnt even finish hl2. it was so boring. i get that it "revolutionized shooters" and "set the standard" for the fps genre, but i dont base my opinion on how a game changed the industry. i base it on how it is as a game. and hl2, as a game, is not fun at all. |

Yeah I don't get it either.
Also thankfully fake factory cinematic mod clears up the issue with the level design being bad. |

interesting but i'll probably never touch hl2 again until someone straps me in an electric chair and forces me to
when it comes to valve in general, it's pretty hit or mess. i love left 4 dead 2 and team fortress 2, but i hate half-life and portal. |

my brother always used to watch me play arkham asylum and arkham city but i guess it never really appealed to him. he says he wants something that's more like the dark knight films but meh, i don't really see it.

there is nothing special about HL2. it's just a very very generic game by today's standards |

i don't think many people will dispute that SR2 is a good game
but it was "blessed" with one of the worst pc ports known to man
