Summary: I don't know about this one.................................
Review: I love unreal series but, when I played half-life....well....I guess it just has no adventure to it I mean the graphics are just okay....same goes for sounds, music cool....gameplay boring............pckeybpard controls comfortable, but I think this game is just okay...........not worth it to me, I ran it on my new state-of-the-art-dell computer, I'm not sure about this one, but I haven't beat it yet, so when I get farther into the game, I'll add-on to the review!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Game EVER!
Review: This game is awesome! I got it 2 years ago and i still like it! I heard about this game from a friend of mine. It was expensive when me and my brother got it, but it was worth it! The sequels Opposing Force and Blue Shift are cool too except for the fact that Opposing Force had a couple bugs in it, and Blue Shift was kinda short, but all of them are cool. If you don't like having a good time, you would not like this. So buy it if you like games that are puzzling but full of action...

Summary: Best FPS ever
Review: This is a truly excellent game. The game seems so absolutely real. I have never feared turning corners and hearing sounds as much as I do with this game. The story is excellent, the graphics are good, the sound is good, and the AI is so amazing it's scary. I can't say anything that hasn't alreay been said. Half-Life is the greatest FPS ever, and its only rival for the best game ever is The Sims.

Summary: BEST EVER IN THE WORLD!
Review: AMAZING...BREATH TAKING...WILL KEEP YOU AT YOUR COMPUTER!

Summary: Trembling, the best single player 3d shoot game
Review: I usually turned off all lights and played game in deep night after a whole-day work, even on bloody Quake I or Doom II, it is ok. And I was for a long time a Quake II fan, esp. in single player mode. With numerous add-on levels distributed on the web, I thought the 3D-shooter game has reached the limit in Quake II. But alas, what a game the Half-Life is! I DARE NOT played it in the deep night alone with all lights off. With a very good storyline and excellent atmosphere, the game is horrible! You never know what the next step will be. The monsters are not stupidly standing there waiting for your bullets, instead they are chasing and hunting you. It is simply the best single player 3d shoot game so far.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unbelievable Game
Review: Half-Life is simply UNBELIEVABLE. This game will keep you at your PC for weeks and months. The AI is unchallenged by any other game, and the realism is amaizing. I bet the first time you play it you would not even believe the realism.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply the Best
Review: I was never a big fan of the first-person shooter (FPS) genre, but after giving Half-Life a try (thanks to all of the glimmering reviews), I am absolutely hooked. From the opening tram sequence, you're mesmerized by Gordon Freeman's plight and the falling Black Mesa world surrounding him. It's a game that keeps you in a trance from midnight to the first crack of sunlight (apologies to my wife!). After dishing out punishment to those Marines, be sure to frag some people in the outstanding multiplayer modes. The fun gets even better, and the taste of death is even sweeter when you blow apart that guy with 196 kills. Half-Life is truly a work of art. Opposing Forces, here I come.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 2 years and still kicking.
Review: Anybody who is a fan of the genre or just likes to play on the computer will love this game! Great AI, great guns, great level design, great game! It's so cinematic, it should be made into a movie! Also get the great add-on Opposing Force. In this game you get to be a soldier! Don't miss out on this great game!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A disturbing game to say the least!
Review: I found Half-Life to be somewhat interesting, although it started to run thin by the ending levels. Not many of the levels were amazing, either. Just long hallways, small rooms, and an occasional elevator shaft that you climb up. I like 3D games that let you be outside, looking over vast plains of enemies and obstacles. Half-Life just didn't cut it in this arena.

Another thing that I found most disturbing was the extreme gore/violence that is present throughout the game. When your science project goes wrong, you walk out to find a scientist lying on the ground with about 10 gallons of blood spread all over the walls and floor! Were the programmers just trying to be sick here or what? When you reach the levels in which you begin to fight the army grunts (who are the best enemies), it gets even more grotesque. If you let off an entire clip of bullets at one guy, expect to see a wall covered with blood. Sure, you can turn it off, but it does very little good. The blood is still very disturbing. This is one aspect of the game that is extremely unacceptable. I am not a parent saying this, either, I'm a teenager.

Aside from the violence and lack of interesting levels, the game is pretty much void of any lasting qualities. If you want a weekend of pure hell (both keeping you stuck to your computer and grossing you out entirely) then buy this game. Otherwise, don't bother.
