<div class="IPBDescription">You heard me right!</div>Now, I enjoyed DOOM 3. It was fun....
BUT OH MY GOD HALF-LIFE 2 :O :O :O :O :O :O
Holy crap. The first up-till-you-get-a-gun of Half-Life 2 is more intense than all of DOOM 3, and that is pretty intense. :O
I wanted you all to hear it from me first.
And now, I will collapse from exhaustion...

I'm sure someone is already working on hacks for it, which is just sad.
I cant wait until I get home from school... :D~~
hl2 is better

(spoiler removed because some people prefer to ignore spoiler warnings, like Narfwak)
I gave full warning, but doom here did the hyping with the topic all by itself so don't single me out buddy.
I still don't have my HEV yet, but this is still the BEST GAME EVER. God, the adrenaline D:
The airboat sequence was AWESOME.
A little slow at parts when you had to get out, but kept a fairly nice pace.
Other than that, it was just the same old thing. If you want to scare people, you give them what they don't expect. Making monsters teleport in every single time you enter a room is not scary. It's just predictable. And every single aspect of the game was like that. "Hey look, a dark corner. I bet there's no zombie hiding in there, ready to start walking when I get near". "Oh, and empty hallway. I'm sure there's no sliding panels anywhere, behind which there are zombies waiting to attack me". "Hey, look at that. A room with several small ventilation holes. Oh well, I have killed enough spiders on this level already, if the devs put more of those in at this point, it'd just be sad".
To be honest, H-L was more scary. At least there they *didn't* put a "surprise" behind every god damn corner, so you actually were surprised when something popped up. In Doom 3, I was more surprised when I for some reason wasn't attacked by monsters suddenly teleporting in to the right and left.
Damn thing bring you down to 1 hp and then swarm you D=
Thankfully its only a toxin and your suit fixes you right up fairly quickly =/
but then, you can still see the skins and models...
and a lot of the wall textures aren't all that amazing...
I hope the G-man's bad voice acting is bad for a reason, like he's an alien or something, and I'll find out about that reason later in the game.
my biggest gripe is that the atmosphere is too cheery. several characters are all chummy toward you all of a sudden, when they were flat and dreary in HL1. I'm glad they have personalities now, but I wish those personalities consisted of more than "omg gordon r teh r0x0rZ." hell, even the barnacles chirp merrily as they reel you in, while they cackled spookily in HL1...
maybe I was just too tired when I started playing; maybe I should restart from scratch when i get home :>
blasphemy

I bought my HL2 copy retail. I regret it already. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Damn postie! Bring me my game!
I'm surprised you're ll so far in too! Savour it guys; don't complete it in a week. Or less.
Edit: o0 a typo. Not like anyone will read this old thread, but hey.
This game is awesome.
As far as I'm concerned Valve could have just release air boat thingy as a seperate game and I'll still buy it.
The load time sucks though.

Just got to the part past the speedboat sequence. I'm a natural sceptic, but god, does this game draw you in.

Oh yeah.
I'm at the end of the Prison(2nd turret scene). Yeah, no spoilers, I know. You won't understand it till you're there, then you'll be like "WOAH THAT IS WHICKED COOL."
<span style='color:white'>This is a <i>significant</i> spoiler, Qua.</span>
As said: This game just doesn't let up.
I played for three hours last night and got to chapter 4 and right now I'm on chapter 7. The begning when you are like Running Man and the boat ride were by far the most exhilirating parts thus far! I can't wait to beat the game so I can play it again! The car level thus far isn't as enjoyable as the boat level, because you are still on that running for your life high. Then again, the car serves more as a transport as you move from hot spot to hot spot along the route, finding a nice place to powerslide into, exit the vehicle and begin the ground battles. It's a pain in the but to drive the car with a keyboard, but it feels so real. Also, sv_cheats still works in the game. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Just got the grav gun thouhg, and all is forgiven. Also, it might be that I keep blowing myself to low health with barrels, but Ravenholm is creepier than Doom 3 to me.
