If you liked Half life 1 you gunna love half life 2
HL1 HF2
- soldiers = combine (over watch)
-Aliens = Bugs
-Security gards = The soldiers who fight with you (later you get a squad)
-Head crabs = Better looking and 3 forms of head crabs
-4 stages of zombies = 3 stages of zombies (more diversity)
this makes the game feel almost the same but then you get the uber good graphics and you guessed it the Gravity gun which in many ways eliminates the need for weapons such as all of Razorhole or whatever the town is called or in Nova prospect. The bug bait also helps alot in Nova prospect, the squad you get in anti citizen one and the help in the citidel also halts the need for weapons. The Ai are extreamly easy to kill even in hard mode because of the help you get with these 3 new addons. The wepon selection is slim compared to HL1 with opposing force and Blue shift in mind. However the wepons are all fun to use. HF2 comes with HL2 Death match which is online only team and deathmatch and Counter Strike Source wich is fun but needs some more patches (only 2 out of the 4 classic CS models to play as per side). Thses two programs offerd though steam make this game a killer deal. In the end i found HL2 to be a great time and i cant wait for HL2 Aftermath and this is a shout out to Gman keep doing your thing what ever it is (misteriously showing up and appering on tvs)
