No. It's boring. You'd better replay the Episodes with the commentary turned on.

I think it's worth playing again. I haven't played it in a couple of years and I plan on playing it again along with the episodes when they're all released. I haven't played any of those episodes yet.

Some levels are fun to play through a couple of times.

Yes. I'm actually currently playing through it again and I'm having a blast. Just got through Ravenholm and I'm still smiling at the memory.

Half Life 2 is one of my favorite games, biggest reason because it has one of the best storylines in a singleplayer game. The gameplay is also pretty fun, the physics especially.

Most games are at least worth a second go around especially the hl series.

Ehh. I played Half Life 2 in 2005 and I loved it. I tried replaying it at the release of Episode 1 and I didn't get far in. I tried re-replaying it at the release of Episode 2 and again I didn't get far in.

Same thing happened with Half Life 1. They are amazing games but for me they have 0 replay value, even years later.

I didn't vote, since I only ran through it once, but not because it's getting boring...it's just I have too many games to play, and it's not intriguing or appealing enough for me to run twice...yet again, most FPS, even the highly regarded one, are worthy of one runthrough only for me, unlike good CRPGs.

If it's just to play HL2 again because you're bored then you'll likely get through a few hours of it and then uninstall it because the boring bit is coming or you just can't be bothered anymore.

I completed HL2 but I'll play it again because I want to play through the entire Half Life world starting with HL1, both expansions, HL2 and ep 1 and 2. Hopefully Decay will come out before I move on to HL2. So in that sense it's good to play it again so you can get an even better picture of it's place in the HL world.

One of the few games ive played through multiple times (even the Episodes as well), something about it allows me to go back and play again and still enjoy it immensely. I still hate those big dudes with 4 black headcrabs on their back ....... i hear those noises and my heart starts beating 10x faster aahhahah

Oh hell yeah. Half-Life 2 has a lot of replay value.
