I loved what I played of Half-Life 2 but only played about two hours or so. I loved the beginning to ****ing death where you have no weapon and are experiencing the world with total vulnerability and the exposition is optional so you can watch it or skip it at your leisure. It just felt so immersive. Then when the action starts it's very well paced so I'm running and feel totally powerless, so that when I get a pistol it feels so "Aha! Come get some, you ****ers!", and every subsequent weapon feels like mana from the gods.
I absolutely loved what I played and I just ordered The Orange Box for the 360 which has Half Life 2 so Imma be finishing that ****, believe that. I just haven't played enough to rate it.
