I think im making this point for the first time on these forums, so please bear with me.
The reason why Goldeneye has a very high aggregate score in sites like Meta or Grankings is the same reason why parents act ecstatic when their child takes its first step, but dont make a fuss when they see it running when its 5 years old. A great FPS on a console was a big deal back then, on the PC, the FPSes had to live up to higher standards.
And no, i didnt find Half Life to be too boring. In fact it stays one of the best games ive ever played. Wish i could say the same about Goldeneye or Perfect Dark.
