Half life 2,, story??

turtle3 · 19 Jan 2006 at 15:13

Ive had HL2 sitting on my desk for ages and only just got round to playing it today,, WOW its awesome, You really feel part of the game and Graphics are very impressive and most of all smooth as silk, I would never of thought this game was a year old if I never knew.. Anyway what I would like to know is if anyone could give me a recap on the story of the original half life?? I am ashamed to say I only got half way through the original then sold it on. I would just like to know what happened at the end of Half life

thanks

Far too short, only took 2 days

You could always streaming one of the Half Life run-through movies.

IIRC, speedrunners have completed it in something like 50 mins or so.

2:15 is the current record

, i actually saw the movie of him doing it, its amazing how many bugs/shortcuts there are, he just skipped loaads of the game

, so i advice you: Just take your time, it really is an amazing game and make sure you check out everything in the game

Obviously 2 hours

I find the game interesting, and took my time with it, was reatch towards the end, but then I bought COD, fear and Q4 so it put me off playing with it, still got to get back in to the game . . .

Well y'know, I could go into it.

About how you spend hours rescuing Barney lookalikes only for them to get eaten by a big giant thing which you then burn to pieces with a rocket.

Or I could talk about how much Xen sucked
