[QUOTE="The_Fat_Gamer"][QUOTE="RossRichard"]Sounds like you just couldnt handle the game. Seriously, when a game can change your mood, it immerses you in the story. Most games strive to do this, very very few can actually pull it off. When a game immerses you emotionally, that is the mark of a great game.

Aww, this is were you are wrong though. When you get immersed into a story, you actually feel for the character. When something bad happens, you feel it. I have recently beaten CoD4 and I have got to say that that game got my eyes watering because it was soo immersive. I am also currently playing Bioshock which I can't play at night because I get THAT immersed in the atmosphere that I would practically give myself a heart attack if I ever get tooken off gaurd. I can handle ANY game. RE, Condemned, you name it. A game is supposed to immerse you, NOT make you feel like you just do not care about anything. Bioshock is 10x more gorier and scarier than HL2, but the game has one of the best and most terrifying stories I have ever heard. I literally can not wait to play the next level to figure out what happens next. Maybe if I played longer, I would have gotten immersed into the HL story, but a good game will grab you at the word go and not let you go until the end credits.
Do yourself a favor, an play the game, you're missing out on a great FPS. You seem to like Bioshock, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you have good taste. Really, it's your loss that little nitpicky details are so annoying to you.
funny you cite my, and many other people's, favorite level as the reason you hate the game. you could ask those questions of any level in any game.
