IMO, HL-2 had a chance to define PC Gaming for Q4 2003 and most of 2004. However, the hacker-related delay caused it to be pushed back so far that other games have taken its place, and I don't think that HL2 will have the impact it could have. Call of Duty had the great guns-blazing teamplay...

Half-Life 2 and Deus Ex: The Invisible War are two completely different types of games. HL-2 is a basic balls-to-the-wall FPS where all you do is run and gun. DX:IW has more stealth, strategy, and RPG-like management. Both will be great fun, but it's like comparing apples and oranges. I think...

Haha, I read the thread name as "Patrick Swazey." Is there an 'e' in his name? Is it possible he caused ANON to hack Valve? No one will ever know!

I can't stand abbreviations. U instead of you, 2 instead of two, etc. It's not that hard to type out the full word, people. I also hate the lack of puncuation on the internet. Especially paragraphs made up of one sentence, and simple things such as capitalizing the beginning of each sentences...

Yeah, I bought it and beat it on Heroic. All in less than 15 minutes, you say? Wow, time sure dragged out while I played it!

Seriously, look at the progress in ten years, from Doom to Doom 3. It's amazing, imagine where we'll be in 2014...

Oh wow, I haven't laughed that hard in weeks! Aahahaha, thanks for that little gem, snoggle.

I'm still waiting for a game that can deeply disturb you on an emotional level, like books and movies can.

That was sort of a tangent I needed to go off on....and it felt gooood. Huh? Was that agreeing or disagreeing? I couldn't decipher it...

Umm....who was that directed at?

The new Call of Duty Dawnville demo is extremely tense. Prone behind sandbags, a Panzer IV's machine gun spraying the ground around your cover, and Panzerfausts in a building only yards away. Fun stuff. The Meatgrinder of Stalingrad is going to be incredible in that game. Jumping out of your...

I saw a screen of what looked like Hell in the PC Gamer "Great Shooter Shoot-Out" issue. Red glow to everything, the walls were rock and there were stalagmites hanging from the ceiling (or are those kind on the ground?). There was a pinky eating what looked like a thin zombie. I've read...

I just can't believe how stupid some people are, judging the game and complaining about bugs from AN INCOMPLETE BETA! I didn't get it because I'm pretty sure playing it would completely ruin the game for me. What would be better, playing it prematurely and bug-ridden, with no real plot or...

Agreed, but the game is mostly close-quarters from what I've seen in screens. That's pretty much tunnel-shooting without much room to show off the physics.
