Ever since the cliffhanger of Half-Life 2: Episode Two and the thirteen year wait for a new game, Valve has had an incredibly high expectation to live up to for a new Half-Life game. And I'm happy to say that they most definitely lived up to the hype with Half-Life: Alyx.

In Alyx, you're back in the Half-Life universe once again, and it's got the same feel as a game in the series. There's more focus on puzzles than combat in this title, but there is still plenty of difficult combat to get through. Even on normal mode, you will be very challenged. But it's extremely addicting to play. This is one of few VR games I can play for 3 hours straight with no breaks due to just how good it is.

This is the best VR game ever put out, and it's not even close. This game is an absolute masterpiece. Please, stop complaining about the VR exclusivity, because to reach the high standard Valve has for the games they create, they must innovate in some extreme form. This game is amazing for the VR market, more people are buying VR headsets than ever before just to play this game because it's full-length and highly anticipated. Before, developers didn't have the resources to create a full-length game like this and no one was buying VR headsets because of the lack of full-length killer apps. It was a cycle bound to fail, and Valve is attempting to break it. This is the true beginning of VR's take-off into the general consumer market.

Thank you Valve.
