First Halflife 2 review score appears...


Recommended Posts

This according to halflife2.net. A trusty forum memeber posts that the game got a score of... 96 in PC GAMER UK that should come out next month (tomorrow :)). It's also apperantly the second or third game to recieve that high a score on the magazine, the other one being... Halflife 1 :)

This game better not suck. I don't trust magazine reviews ever since the Unreal 2 incident with PC Zone :D

Heh...Don't even mention the Driv3r fiasco.. :shifty:

Oops..just did :pinch:

If I am not confused, which happens often, PC Gamer had an exclusive on Doom3 and gave it a 98% I believe. While I agree the games techincal prowess is as of yet unmatched, the game play of the game fell well short of 60%. It was mundane and repetive at best, and a total bore at worst. I hope this is not the case, but if you go PCGamer's track record of reviews, HL2 will look good and play bad. Like I said I really hope this is not the case

I hope this is not the case, but if you go by past reviews HL2 will look good and play bad. Like I said I really hope this is not the case

i.e. Doom 3 Multiplayer sux cyber demons crack

i agree...i spent $40 on the game, and still haven't finished it, mostly because when i load it, i stare at the screen thinking, "Do I REALLY want to play Doom3...or FarCry (which I have finished and started again)?"

ripped :ninja:

This game looks fantastic. But maybe thats my fanboyism for Half Life shining through.

    • Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
