Half-Life 2 (PC, Xbox/2004) Guessed by Adriane23
Nine years later, Half-Life 2 still feels next-gen. The amazing graphics, the sophisticated physics engine, the superior artificial intelligence, the vastness of the game environments -- all are spectacular. But even if you strip away all the technical achievements, Half-Life remains a remarkable achievement. From beginning to end, the game is a thrill ride, filled with diverse and interesting chapters, some heavy on horror, some heavy on problem-solving. It's also one of the more involving and immersive games ever made, thanks in large part to Valve's mastery of narrative logic.
