    Half-life 2 for Xbox

    I was at EB games trading in some games and the guy there told me if I pre-ordered a game that I would get an additional 30% off my trade ins. So I look at the display case and nothing tickles my fancy until I see Half Life 2 coming out in November. Remembering how good this game was on the PC years ago I couldn't resist. This game was the best FPS I ever played (even Halo can't match it). Has Half Life 2 already come out on the PC? Has anybody heard the buzz on this game because if it's half (pun intended) as good as the original this game will be awesome.

    For me, it's a rental due to no online stuff. Granted, I'm pumped about the rental, but no online unless it's a sports game=no buy for me.

      Actually no online is good news for me because I guess that means they're concentrating on single play and that's one thing I loved about the original.

              And the original poster asked if Half-Life 2 came out for the PC.

And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                HL2 on the PC was one of the best games I've ever played. It's that good.

                  It was awesome, but still over-rated. The big climatic scenes in the game were boring and predictable and the physics engine was great but gimmicky.

                    How was the original Half-Life? I played a little of it but didn't get into it all that much. I did hear that a lot of people enjoyed it though. I love to start stories from the beginning. Maybe, I'll be able to finish the original before the 2nd comes out. Any thoughts on how the first was? in comparison to the PC also?

                      First one was my favorite game of all time until the 2nd one came out. You might not appreciate it as much now with the graphics and such. For its time, it was the best technology wise and gameplay wise.

                        I loved the original Half Life for the PC. Complete classic game, in my top 5 of all time. Story and gameplay was so solid in that game. Highly recommended. I never played the PS2 version though.

                          I'd be getting it for XBOX of course. I might have to give it a little spin. It's a FPS right? It's been so long. I do need to get into those types of games if I'm going to get a 360.

                            What I meant was, the original Half Life was never released on anything but PC and PS2.

                            Yes, it's a FPS. It's basically Halo before Halo.

                              ONLY PS2?? WHAT THE FLIP?? That is so cheap. I can't believe that mess. I guess I'll have to holler at it though. Dang, going to kill my buzz....
