Lemme just say, WoW = one of the greatest games ever made... Seriously, this game is frickin' AWESOME....
Now, onto more pressing matters: Half-Life 2
I played the first Half-Life when it came out (98-99, I believe... damn I'm getting old...) and loved it. I was a little tough for me (I WAS 10 at the time) but I enjoyed it nonetheless. This past Christmas, I picked up the Half-Life Holiday Pack which included HL1:Source, HL2, HL2: Episode 1, and CS:S (along with the respective Deathmatches). I played throught Half-Life, but never got around to starting HL2. Well, recently, my internet went down, and with no WoW to play, I HAD to do something. So I loaded up the ol' Steam account, rewatched the ending to HL, and set out for City 17.
One ... simple ... word ...
WOW.
HL2 surpasses ANYTHING I've played in a good, long while. The story is, of course, amazing, the graphics are unbelievable, the action is excellent, and the Havok physics engine is something that has to be seen to be believed.
Valve, you outdid yourselves on this one.
Here's hoping you can continue that tradition with Episodes 2 & 3.
And Half-Life 3.
