      Iunno, man. I am an old-school FPS head; but I’d never recommend a playthrough of HL2 to anyone who hadn’t before because it really just feels like a tech demo with bare connective tissue for story. HL1? Black Mesa? Yeah, sure; but not 2.

      Not a fan of AAA and don’t like FPS. Played 20 mins of Halo and it wasn’t for me.

      Edit: wrong game, still point stands.

        My brother. They are no where near the same game. I understand not liking first person but halo and half life are not comparable past first person.

        There’s a reason Valve can’t make a third and it’s because 2 can’t be topped.

              No. You do realise there is lots of gaming genres? I understand it isn’t obvious if you have been gaming 10 years and only play AAA.

                  Absolutely not. You call me a troll and then call me rude? Getting bashed for not knowing a FPS game then getting bashed for it is really something. Check my first post, it was positive despite not knowing the reference.

                  If you don’t expect there to be frustration when franchises like Bullfrog got swallowed and killed and folk don’t want to play the only types of genres being pushed?

                  Are we not free to like what we like?

                  Can we not have a different opinion…

                  Oh gosh, is this reddit again?

                    Ok troll, calm down or maybe follow your own words and go back to Reddit. Never did I bash you for not knowing the game, I bashed you for comparing it to halo and then subsequently saying all fps are the same.

                    We can have different opinions you’re the one attempting to attack me bud. All I am telling you is halo and half-life shouldn’t be compared past the fact that they are played in first person. Which is what I said in my first comment.

                    And yes you are fucking rude as shit assuming a bunch of bullshit. Condescending little troll baby
