This is a Bungie forum, I know, but I was wondering. Is anyone looking forward to Half Life 2? I just saw the previews for it, and it looks great.

I can't wait, and the sooner the better. Release is currently planned for THIS SUMMER.

Half-Life 2 is going to own - the single player might not be as good as Halo 2's, but the multiplayer mods are going to own all comers for another 5 years. _All_ comers.

And, it turns out they're porting my favorite HL mods, Natural-Selection and the Specialists to the Source engine.

Needless to say, my copy is already pre-ordered.

half life IMHO has the best storyline out of any game ive played. you def have the feeling of not knowing whats going to happen next. its kind of a "how deep is the hole" feeling. i mean the gameplay is average, and the graphics are okay, but the way the story unfolds and the development of aptmosphere is unbelieveable. so play it.

Half-Life 2's multiplayer, if it's anything like Half-Life's, will be terribly generic, and nothing like Halo 2's. The problem with Half-Life is that it relies on its modifications.

The graphics look ok, I'm sure they could do better with that engine they have. And, the story line seems alright just seems like a repeat of Half-life with extensions.

You wouldnt like Half Life now as much as you would along time ago given technology changes in pc games. But i dont know i still like it, check it out if your not too big on graphics.

HL2 and H2 have two different genres of stories, so I guess they'll each rock in their own way. As for the multiplayer, I generally suck at games (no need to lie 'bout this), so I won't get into MP over the internet anyhow. I'll just stick to getting owned at H2 LAN-parties with my buds :(

I can confirm that HL2 is awesome.

I'm pretty sure that ressurecting dead threads is against the rules.

Don't do it.

  • 12.12.2004 11:16 PM PDT

Pointlessly resurrecting them is, as it would constitute spam. Otherwise it's just annoying.
