I just have one little question, and I kind of want some help with it. See, I bought Half-Life off Steam, and considering it's an old game and all, I can cut it slack on the presentation and such. But why do people rave about it? The completely first-person thing is about all it has going for it! The controls are really awful, and the enemies are mostly pansies. Come on - how freaky can head crabs be, huh? I think I'll play through the whole thing just to be safe, but I really prefer my console shooters like Perfect Dark, GoldenEye 007, Halo, etc.
Also, I played the demo for Half-Life 2, and not only was I completely confused, but I think I actually got motion sickness and a headache from it. And I had absolutely no fun with the gravity gun. I'm thinking that if (when) I get a 360 sometime in the next couple of years, I won't be picking up The Orange Box. Of course, maybe it is that I'm playing it on the PC, and I hate PC shooters, but still...I felt like throwing up! Games have never done that to me! I imagine Portal would be the same. Count me out! I'll stick to CoD4 and Halo 3. Yeah...that's all theoretical, though. In a couple years I'll get the 360 for Banjo-Kazooie and Resident Evil 5. Ooh, and Bionic Commando, if it turns out alright. Yes! It'll be good.
