Half-Life 2 = 100% In My Book!!!

I just finished Half-Life 2, and, so I won't spoil the ending for those people out there who haven't finished the game yet, (shame on you!) I'll just state that at the end the G-Man has a friendly talk with you and then walks off. Time stops for some reason. It's actually pretty f**king interesting. *nods head* Exactly. You see where I'm going with this? Since I'm in a [fairly] eager mood, having finished the game exactly about ... *looks at watch* ... about 5 minutes ago, I want to write a slight article about it ... slightly a review, of sorts ... well, here I go ... *sigh* ...

Gameplay: Um ... not much to put for this one; it's pretty straightforward. The gameplay ROCKS, and for further details, read the title [duh!]. The textures look great, the weapon-design is superb, the voice-acting was great-above-all, the level-design was brilliant, and the ending was ... well ... not shabby, but feels kinda leading into something else ... Half-Life 3, anyone?

Voice-Acting: Great.

Video: Wonderful.

Controls: Beautiful.

Overall: Is there really anything to describe this game? Pretty much a 100%, eh, give-or-take a few points on the fact that ... hey, who am I kidding? Valve produces great games, and what do you expect from them? MORE GREAT GAMES! Two thumbs-up. Great. Whoo!!

Now to try it on hard ... ... ... ^_^
