Half Life 2 is Released!!

Ending makes you SOOOOO want to play HL3 right now, let me tell you....

But I won't give it away.

so did the ending of HL1.

but luckily, HL3 shouldnt be TOO far off, it'll be running on the same engine and all. (almost really like an expantion, altho i dont think people will need HL2 to play HL3) so it should be much quicker, perhaps even has soon as a year from now.

How long is HL2?
HL was just so long, it wasn't funny anymore. It got REALLY boring in the end, especially on the alien planet.

Aren't there any expansions planned for HL2?

[Null]

Its not terribly long. i dont think its terribly short either tho.
I have that problem with all FPS, i go thro them pretty quickly without much problem. i breezed thro Doom3 in just a couple days.
i certainly wasnt bored at the end of HL2. I quite enjoyed the story line. and am going to be waiting to see what happens for HL3.

and expansions? perhaps. There was rumors about being able to play as barneys point of view or Alyx's but i cant see there being any huge expansions if HL3 isnt that far off. unless they make HL3 the expansion.

Ah ok. I hate playing a game that's too easy. I think I beated the original Half-Life on hard. Wasn't really that hard either.

i've learned to accept that. I've yet to EVER play a FPS game thats really 'difficult' for me.

which is why i normally just buy games for Multiplayer and dont bother with single. But the story on HL2 and the phisics just pushed me to play thro this one. and i enjoyed it and egarly await the next one to continue the story and find out what happens.

Theres a lot of Very intersting things and questions in the HL series that makes it very fun to play and think about.

I finally took a bit last night and sat down to beat it. Damn that ending I say...
