Hl2 should be #1 instead of #3, but I haven't played HL1 anyway so I can't really speak for its quality. Definitely one of my favourite FPS games. The story is actually memorable years later.


As much as I love HL2, the original still feels more envolving. I don't know, maybe it's because I had just finished GTA III before playing it, but HL2 felt a bit too episodic, more than the first one.

That's because they had Episode 1 and 2 ;o. 

I want to play HL1 when the Black Mesa mod has finally been completed 100%

Just play it now. Only the Xen levels are missing and most people think Xen was the worst part of the game.

Black Mesa mod > HL2

How is the progression affected by the lack of those levels?

The Xen levels (missing ones) are at the end. They consisted of annoying platforming sections that nobody liked.

If you play Black Mesa, the game will end when you get teleported to Xen. So the progression will not be affected.

The Black Mesa mod is free to download if you own Half-Life 2 Episode 2. http://www.blackmesasource.com



How the fuck is ODST higher than Halo 3 and 4????

A better question is how is it higher than Reach, a game that was specifically made to be better than it.

But you read that wrong, it's higher than 3 but not 4.

I got Reach mixed up with 4 lol. But it's still weird.

HL1 is better. There are no forced exposition moments where you stand around doing nothing.(except for the intro)


That's right! Those moments felt a bit forced up on HL2.



Metroid Prime is the best game ever. simply put.
but it's not an FPS, it's an FPA.
