I really hope this would download faster.

P.S.: Gillette I think "hl2" stands for Harry Lotter 2: The Chamber of Secrets".  Not 100% sure though.

:D

We should. However, I heard that CS: Source and 1.6 are completely different games. Gameplay wise. Be warned!

CS:Source seems virtually the same to me, it's just the whole physics things that's different.  The only major difference I can tell is the major accuracy difference on the AK.

Meaning accuracy is worse? Cause I could get headshots at 200 feet with that thing.

So it's my little brother's 16th birthday and he gets a fair amount of money.

To make a long story short, he DIDN'T get HL2.

What-an-asshat.

o.o So, headshots at 400 feet. WHOO!
Yeah, I bought Vampire: Bloodlines. Not touching it 'till I finish HL2, though.

*drool*

god hl2 single player is the most amazing game I’ve ever played...

Who else was like me and spent an hour simply playing with the physics as soon as you got off the train?

Pick up a box walking and accidentally bumping against someone, and them saying "hey watch it" and dust poofing off of the box..

Picking up a can laying around and tossing at one of the guards and them chasing you with their glow rod....

Seeing how far you can run and fling your mouse to get the bottle all the way over the fence...  (yes things like velocity and momentum are built in the physics engine)

Sitting and watching the tv screens to see what capatain underpants has to say...

throwing things against different surfaces just to see what sound different things make against each other...

And then once you get into the game...

Using your crowbar to smash stuff apart… noticing how you can keep smashing bits and pieces until they crumble into smaller and smaller bits

Or shooting and hitting different types of material in the game to hear what it sounds like.  

How many of you played on the playground?  I heard with the right position of the cinder block you can launch that babydoll off of the see-saw.  ;)

If you just barrel through this game without really stopping... going slow and paying attention to ever little piece of scenery and tinkering with everything then my friend you have missed half of the game.

Not only is this a (the ultimate) single player first person shooter, but this is a chance for you to act in one of the coolest movies ever.

I can't believe how many little things have immersed me.

For instance I was blown away when I was walking through the train station and I was in line walking through the gates and one guard yells at me, tells me that I have to come with him....  Then leads me down this creepy hallway..... and while following him I got scared after looking in the slide box peep hole thing of a door.  When I looked inside I saw a guard torturing a guy in a chair... then he spotted me looking in so he came up to the door looked me in the eyes and slammed the slide door closed....

Then...  all I could do is look down the hallway to see my guard standing in front of a door cordially inviting me in....

So what do I do....  Turned and ran back the way I came only to find the door locked....
I turned around and looked down the hallway at him to see him yelling at me telling me to hurry up.

That was just a pretty thrilling part of the movie…. Er I mean game.
"To the darkened skies once more and ever onward."
