Rules:
- Rate from 0.1 to 10 (one decimal places is fine, more than that and I'll round for you). I'd prefer if 5 were an average rather than 7.
- You may vote for any games you want that have been rated before at any time. You may also change your vote at any time.
- No alts, no joke voting, no “purposeful downvoting” - you all know this.
- Please only vote if you've played enough of the game to be able to rate it.
- You may nominate as many games as you want on any given day. Multiple noms of the same game aren't necessary.

You gave it the second lowest score!

And it's a fair review, though I haven't had the same experience with glitches.

I randomly chose to read the review.

It's like those morons with the hadron supercollider; if there's a statistical chance you could destroy the planet, don't use it.

Pfthaha.

Anyways, 7/10. The first part was excellent. However, I really enjoyed the earlier escape the facility portion a lot more than the kill everything portion.

I wasn't laughing at the score itself, just the review.

The line about the LHC and the stuff about WASD was hilarious.

And yeah, no idea why he had so many issues with glitches. I also don't understand the problems with saving he was talking about-- I thought Half Life had quickload, but it's like he only realized quicksave existed? I don't even know.

Ulti was just trolling, don't take it too seriously. It's hard to think otherwise when he sprinkles a review with his opinion on the PC being in trouble as if that impacts the game whatsoever.

As a side note, having to use a keyboard to move instead of a second analog stick is absurd. WASD will never be as effective as dual analog, the end, and only hardcore PC elitists will say otherwise.

10/10.

It is inarguably the most revolutionary and most significant FPS ever, and really saved the genre from stagnation along with starting the career for inarguably the most important PC dev around right now.

Any score lower than 8/10 is trolling and should be thrown out as such.

Problem here is an Analog stick is only marginally better than WASD, while a mouse for aiming is infinitely better than an analog stick for aiming.

Wow you're terrible.

If you played it past its time, you really shouldn't be voting first off.

Second, single player wasn't all it had. The game had a MASSIVE MP community, especially when you considered mods.
