If you don't know what Half-Life is, you must have been locked away "in stasis far from Earth, thought, and time itself." It's just the coolest FPS ever.
Half-Life 2
Better than Wolfenstien(even for it's time),
Better than Dumb, err, Doom,
Better than even Duke Nuk'em 3D(But you never really loose you first love)
Better than Quake 1, 2, 3, 4
better than Unreal
Better then Serious Sam, (snicker, snicker),
Better than Rainbow 6 (although I loved that one, tangos down)
Better than Medal Of Honor
Better than Call of Duty 2....well, Equal in Quality, but too short, HL2 wins
Better than Far Cry only because of modability. Far Cry Rocks.
Download Steam.
Buy the Valve Complete Pack
Play the original.
Play the Sequal.
Relive the story.
Love it.
I just read about the upcomming release of Half-life 2-Episode 1 . I sounds like Gabe Newell and the good folks a Valve are about to release a serial PC game. Wow a serial PC Game! The more things change the more that are the same. Episode after episode of new content. For you Quake and Unreal tournament folk, that's called a story. Yeah a story with a plot and a goal for the player that includes something else other that blowing the an opponents head off. Now I like virtual violence just a much as the next guy, but mindless maleviolence just doesn't do it for me.
My old machine just doesn't have what it's going to take to tackle this new game. I gotta get a AMD 64. Just gotta. My video card is a 9800 pro. I think that will do, but only have a AMD 1800XP that just won't cut the mustard. AMD 64 is the only game in town as far as I'm concerned.
