Recently finished: Still Life 2 - 5/10 - Disappointment, loved the first one. The Curse of Monkey Island - 8/10 - I had already played when it was released. Still a great game (not as good as the previous MI) Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers - 10/10 - Pure perfection, Jane Jenson for...

Braid - 8/10 -Pretty good. I liked the art style and the gameplay mechanics. It's too short. Zeno Clash - 8/10 - Fantastic art style, great melee combat, unfortunatly it has a few unpolished bits and its too short. Sam & Max season 1 - 9/10 - Loved the writing, the comedy and characters...

The Longest Journey - Perfection/10 Can't believe i waited 10 years to play this, i'm amazed, it was a fantastic experience. Now i'm playing Dreamfall, but its a bit disapointing for now.

Impressive!

Probably the team would not stick together with an original mod. They are all fans of HL, and thats what kept them going for so many years. We all know that mod teams easily fall apart, even more with huge projects like this one. And i think its a bit arrogant to say what other people should...

Again, thats not the point. The mod isn't trying to replace HL, i see a lot of people a bit reluctant by BM, because they feel that the devs are arrogant enough to try to beat the masterpiece. BM is more like a homage to HL, and a way for them to show their talent.

Of course it will not surpass Half-Life, that's impossible and not really the point. What i'm expecting with BM is a nostalgic rollercoaster full of good memories, if they manage to keep the same feeling i think it can be as good as i'm expecting.

Poets of the Fall - Late Goodbye (Max Payne 2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atKv1JyQgV8

In the trash.

Beyond Good and Evil - 9/10 Brilliant, brilliant game, loved it. However, its an awful console port.

World of Goo - 9/10 A masterpiece, if it was a bit longer it would be perfect. The soundtrack is so beautiful. GTA 4 - 8/10 Its ok, improved a lot of things from previous GTA's, however it still have some annoying flaws.

#1 favorite fps, easily. Honestly i don't really like fps that much, i think most of them are boring and repetitive, so its pretty easy for HL1/2 to be in the top of my list.

Tomb Raider Underworld 8/10 Much better than Legend, but shorter, less polished and less charismatic than Anniversary. The story is a big disapointment, but the adventure and exploration is there. Its a game for TR fans, the others will not get into it.
