This is just a very brief view (Not a proper review guys), my view, on hl2. Like many of you all I waited for hl2 with baited breath. I even woke up with 5 mins to spare to play it first. Upon entering this wonderful hl2 world I was met with some sense of disappointment. Most of it was on my part as I have seen so many hl2 movies that when I played certain parts I knew what was coming next. The game started off well and I enjoyed it. Action packed and fun. But soon as I had to enter the speed boat I was disappointed. I just felt the handling was way off. It seemed almost drunk? I can’t explain it but I was struggling to control it. Same goes for the buggy (later). Another thing that struck me was the loading times, took forever, but I let it pass. Then we got the story line. After playing on the game solid for 3 hours it stopped and thought "hang on, what is my mission? What’s the point of all this?" so many questions unanswered, so many new ones, again left unanswered. I felt there wasn’t much of a story and questions from the previous game were left in limbo. And once again after all these years I have no idea who the G-Man is. Ok it adds to the story and atmosphere but not for me. Overall to summarize I enjoyed the game but having now completed it, I feel like it’s all over. I can’t seem to find the interest to replay the game. Oh well. Ok this review isn’t deep but I never meant it to be. I would never go so far as to say it’s the best game ever but its right up there!
