HalfLife 2 completed

themediaslut has finally send Gordon Freeman back to sleep again...

One of the biggest nightmare happened immediately after the game was installed. It took themediaslut one hour for the game to download the encryption software from valve's content server. themediaslut is also on cable.

When themediaslut called iGamesAsia, the Singapore's distributor, they said it is expected and nothing can be done about it.

Actually there is something iGamesAsia should have done. They should have plastered a warning label on HalfLife2 boxes that it will take that long to download the encrytion software.

There isn't a mentioned of it in GameAxis.

Game distributors should be upfront with the problems rather than try to hide it. Its not a smart way to convince buyers to go for original games.

Back to HalfLife2.

During gameplay, it feels as if you were walking among the Land of the Dead (somewhere in the middle) and the Matrix (at the end).

As expected the graphic great and the AI is smart. The game could have been better if the developers could have added a Max Payne romance story between Gordon and Aryl.. but that's another game altogather..

How about a World of HalfLife? too many reports on World of Worldcraft already.. here WOW there WOW... What about a WOH....
