Half-Life 2 Xbox review | IGN

[DigiQ8]

9.4

The story itself is worthy of great praise, but the way it's implemented into the gameplay, along with amazingly fresh missions that all blend into one another, make this easily one of the best games on Xbox this year, if not the best.

same game, but made playable for the xbox, which is a huge achievement. You may not care, but it's a great job by VALVe. I for 1 want to play HL2 on my xbox360.

 

[destrukt]

so .. no multiplayer [system link] ? what a let down : (

 

[ríomhaire]

Now we can see what the Halo fanboys have to say

 

[Foebane]

They should've never released Doom 3 or HL2 on the old X-Box, since because it is based on a similar top PC spec from 2002 or earlier, they've had to downgrade the games for it.

For the X-Box 360, on the other hand, they should be able to do straight ports and keep everything in - just change control method, etc. and that would be it.

Thank you captain obvious, but now Xbox owners can play.

 

[Insano]

Cool, I'd like to play it to see how the controls feel like.

Actually, no, Gamespot f_cks up all screen, regardless whether it's for a console or for PC. So you have no real proof that's an Xbox screen, furthermore, that's a PC screen.

Yeah and Im sure there's tons more xbox gamers than PC gamers, sadly.

Doom 3 for Xbox is fine.

 

[ríomhaire]

My friend from school is getting it. Is it out on the 15th or 18th?

 

[ChiChi]

I have two problems with the controls. B for reloading and right click for crouching. Halo's controlles were better. But the game looks sweet for the xbox.

15th..

Gonna get it for my Birthday, which funnily enough, last year I got Hlaf-Life 2 for my Birthday aswell. And seeing that my PC didn't run it in its best form, plus it doesn't let me play it anymore anyway, I can't wait to play through it again. And this time with no freezing, long loading and not so nice graphics.

(I'm in no way a graphics Nazi, by the way. I just want to play through it in a better form than my PC did)

Look, I never said Doom 3 sucked on Xbox. What I'm trying to say is, there are equally good looking games out there. It's a standart. Nothing special.
