I agree that Portal 1 & 2 is an exception; they did take an interesting game mechanic and develop a good game around it. But my argument still stands. For me, Portal still wasn't a title that pushed the envelope significantly for Valve - you may agree or disagree.
Look, I'm not gonna bullshit...
Yeah, this is it. I don't hate Valve. Far from it. I really like the company. I'm just expressing disappointment. I also sincerely hope that their next-gen stuff will shut me up, slap me across the face and say "Yeah, we're still trying to push the boundaries here." I expect this from Valve...
Haven't posted in a long time. I have however been lurking long enough to see this site wither in activity in proportion to Valve's continued silence surrounding Half-Life. I thoroughly agree with Tollbooth Willie. This old article sums up my thoughts on Valve now to be honest...
ABSOLUTELY incredible game; hats off to the team behind this. I was conisistently immersed. Compare this to the dogsh** that is the TV series of The Walking Dead, and there is simply no comparison. I had to hold back tears at the end.
Yeah, the scenes at the wall just screamed budget to me. Not to say it wasn't good; they did the best with what they had. I just couldn't help keep comparing LOTR Helms Deep to this episode lol. Anyone else feel the same?
I nearly choked on my food when I came across this thread. Jesus holy christ, please, please, pleeeeaaase do a good job of 'enhancing' my favourite games of all time. This is unbelievable.
