not my thing and reads pretentiously more than anything else but for 50 cents i really cant be mad
i need a few weeks to think about this
i seriously adore the extra chapters for both hl1 and 2, and i really think this is just another example of valve showing how far they came even in the few years between the release of hl2 and episode one. it doubles as an incredible story and a showcase of new mechanics. i'm looking forward to seeing what episode two offers.
2004
one of the best ending sequences in a game that i have ever seen.
a very strong last couple chapters weighed down by an insanely mediocre beginning. no doubt the weakest in the yakuza series imo, especially with the early dragon engine combat (which i'm personally not a fan of.) it would rank the same as k2 for me if not for the lack of interesting side content. i'm beyond glad rgg studios ended up patching up kiryu's "send-off" in y6 with their new releases though, cause despite the positives of the game, it's not a very good farewell.
short, sweet, and fun. cool showcase of what source was capable of at the time. also has barney in it which is awesome.
okay. i understand why this game is so important. i see why it was so groundbreaking. but i really don't think this holds up as much as other games that share fallout 3's status. it's a beautiful game, i can give it that much. fallout 3 portrays a wasteland exactly how a wasteland should be. but god, the gameplay was the equivalent of pissing rocks. i wish i had my own personal liberty prime to walk around like a dog and have it kill off all of the hostiles that would have otherwise made me use up half of my ammo and all of my remaining stimpaks. i'm sure that fallout 3 is incredible to play if you were there at its release, but as a newcomer, i can't say it lives up to its name.
this is like half life if half life was annoying

YEAH SCIENCE!!!
