5 out of 5 stars 9.99 across the board!!!   October 1, 2008
Half life 2 is by FAR the best FPS I have ever played. To me it blows HALO out of the water. 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. Half life is def more real and sometimes you actually get chills from the realism. EVERYONE needs to get this 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!!!


3 out of 5 stars Good but short   August 31, 2008
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.


3 out of 5 stars A very disappointing port of a great game.   April 15, 2008
The Xbox can't handle Half-Life 2 plain and simple. That is the source of our problems here. The graphics aren't as good as they are on the PC. They look fuzzy, and at times some areas of the game look almost unfinished. The controls are uncomfortable and are not done well compared to other console FPS games. Playing Gordon feels spastic and overall very sloppy. 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. It is absolutely horrible. At times it makes the game unplayable. I seriously didn't even finish he game because of how crappy the frame rate was. 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. 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.

3 out of 5 stars Half-Life Review by David the wise, tall, good looking, and just.   December 12, 2007

Let me start by saying, this is a cool game. Althogh, you'll probably only play it through once. The story is pretty good, but the ending is so dumb. I'm not gonna tell you how it ends, but it's as bad as KOTOR2. There is no closure, no kissing the girl, no seeing the bad guy fall to his doom. The multi-player is awful. Infact, there is no multiplayer (heh heh). The back of my box is raited Mature for intense violence, blood and gore. They forgot to put strong language on it. There is a good bit of language used in this game. If you like RPG's you probably don't want to bother with this game. If you like shooting zombies this is the game for you. If you don't give a rip...why are you reading this? (I'm moving fast I know, but I've got a college assignment due friday, and I need to start working on it. I'm in for Video Game Art and Design, if that helps your oppinion of me any.) The cops in the game are very fun to mess with on the first level. I like to throw cans at them, and make them mad. Anyway, the graphics are good, the gameplay is fun, but the story is lacking, and the music in the game is good, but not used often enough. Hope this helps.
