HALF-LIFE 2: Setting Standards ... in almost every aspect.

bytheuerkorn Dec 31, 2004
67 Helpfuls 68 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Physics, graphics, sound, weapons, equipment, controls, no CD dongle
Cons Online activation required, no manual available (at all)
Recommended it? Yes

In 1998 the original Half-Life set standards and the sequel initially set records in a slightly different way by being one of the longest delayed and yet published games ever. Half-Life 2 has finally been published in November 2004 -- 6 years after the original game made a big splash in the... Read full review »

Half Life 2 - easily the best 3d shooter of the 2004.

62 Helpfuls 63 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros awesome graphics engine, solid plot, gameplay varies, huge environments
Cons high system specs, a few areas where the character will get "stuck"
Recommended it? Yes

Half Life 2 received solid reviews from all the major gaming sites on the web, including a 97% from IGN and a 92% from Gamespot, accounting for a disgustingly high 96% overall among 61 media outlets on the web. I wholeheartedly agree. Half Life 2 is without a doubt one of the best 3d shooters, and... Read full review »

A worthy successor to the Baldur's Gate Series

bycorey_russell Mar 11, 2010
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent graphics, sound, story, party based format
Cons Considerable hardware to run
Recommended it? Yes

First of all, let me just say that I very much enjoy Baldur's Gate (made by BioWare, the same people who made Dragon Age: Origins) with its party format and NPC interactions. Dragon Age: Origins helps to recreate that enjoyment by having up to 3 other NPCs (Non-Player Characters) be part of your... Read full review »

Fantastic RPG!

Pros Good Value, Challenging, Great Design
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Dragon Age is a challenging roleplaying game and is far superior on the PC than the console.   You can plan party mechanics and pause the game in the PC version and cannot do this on the console.  The graphics are beautiful and the storyline is interesting.   The gameplay... Read full review »
