Well, I had see what the fuss was all about, so I finally started playing Half Life. I had this game for over 5 years now, and I played a little bit back then and gave up….I can’t remember why. Anyway, I started this game a while ago, and I managed to finish quite a bit till now.
I can imagine why this game became so popular back in 1999. The graphics were really good for its time, after all it’s the Quake 2 engine we are talking about! The game play is not repetitive, and the level design is great.
The story is really complex though, I am yet to read the whole thing, but I will sometime soon. I found this fantastic site, which has the entire story of the Half Life series so far.

I am almost at the end of Residue Processing level. Will update this once I am done with it.

I finished this game a while ago, and I forgot to update the post. That’s one more game off the list. Needless to say, but I still have to, the game is flawless, and the ending is really good. I shall look into playing Blue Shoft and Opposing Force as well. But I don’t have opposing force, but I will try and get my hands on it somehow.
It’s over and out for now.
