I had it for the Xbox and I've played it for the 360. It sucked then and it sucks now. I'll be avoiding the Orange Box.

Yeah, but... something came out in 1995... 'cause I said "Welcome to 1995" a while back when someone mentioned something to me that was really old...

Maybe they started on Duke Nuke 'em Forever then? :P

I rememebr when HL2 came out I was sick for 2 weeks. Felt horrible; could only play for an hour or two a night. Now I recently got Orange Box and I'm enjoying the game again sickness free

yes, I now have to acquire HF2 episodes 1&2.

Update: after spending a few more hours of my last day of winter vacation, I am now in Highway 17, and I just took down the gunship over the barn.



man, Ravenholm was a b!tch to complete, so tedious, not even very fun. The only joy I got was shooting the leapers out of the air with the shotgun. *sigh* poor father gregorio...

ah man, I'm so sad... when I got half-life 2 I didn't go out until I completed it.

my mate crashed at mine for a few days in a row and we took it in turns to nail it. those were the days.

this was when summer was in full flow too. I remember completing it, popping outside, and being vaguely surprised that the sky had so many pixels.

HL2 was awesome, episode 1 is pretty cool, but just wait for episode 2, it's just incredible!

HL2 rocks. And the Episodes, so far, rocks even more.
But you must try Portal - its totally disco!
