Summary: its fairly immersive, but there are problems
Review: This is a pretty fun game in singleplayer mode. it isn't the best, as others are saying. The story is simple.. its an outline of a story at best. Most of the time i had no idea why i was doing the things i was doing... just that i had to do them to keep the game going.Most of the trouble i have with this game comes from the way the player moves. The default movement is Run. The problem with this is, when you stop, you slide about an inch.. its like the player has ice on his shoes. This wouldn't be so bad, but there are plenty of situations that occur that require you to stop on a dime, or die. You do have the option to hold down the shift key to walk, but there is no toggle run/walk option. (unless you're into editing game files). This is a pain, because the game already has your hands all over the keyboard moving around and shooting things. Another complaint i have is with the sound. I can't understand a single thing the NPCs are saying most of the time. It sounds like they're talking through a walkie talkie.. their voices are very distorted. This is even worse because there is usually some very loud background noise occuring while they're talking to you. I have yet to be able to find a fix for this problem. Another thing: It took me several hours to get this game working with my video card. The models looked terrible, and the mouse movements were very jerky. I couldn't even get the game to work right in Direct 3d mode... i had to use Open GL. I have an ATI Rage Pro.. and i had to search all over the web for a fix to my problem. As it turns out, there wasn't one fix... there were several fixes that involved editing the game files. After much trial and error, i finally got the game working properly. All in all, this game is pretty challenging. I found myself on the verge of dying through almost the entire game. There are parts where the number of aliens and soldiers to deal with is overwhelming. It should keep you playing it for a while. It is not the most atmospheric game i've ever played. Almost every level is the same thing with different (or more) aliens to deal with. For a truly creepy and atmospheric game, i'd suggest American McGee's Alice. It has some of the most beautiful level design i've seen. For a game that is as immersive and addictive as this game claims to be, i'd go with Deus Ex. It may be the best single player game around. Finally, the multiplayer.. i can't really get it to work right. I have played the training level to Counter Strike.. and it looks like it will be really cool.. if only i could get the thing to play online. I suspect this problem will involve more of the web searching and good ol' trial and error to solve, and i'll probably be rescuing hostages in no time.. Assuming all this stuff really does work the way it's supposed to, i'd say 4 games in one package is a pretty sweet deal.. but i would reccommend a working knowledge of how these games work before venturing into this high-maintenance package.

Summary: A REALLY good game
Review: This game is one of my favourite games I've played. I found myself liking it so much that Right after I beat it I played it again! If you want a really good game where there is both lots of shooting and lots of puzzles (wow, your brain actually gets to think!) then this game is for you. There are about 6 guns in this game some which have secondary attacks (machine gun that throws grenades, etc.) and other weapons such as crowbars, hand grenades, detpacks, and others. This game is beautifully handled too. You will never lose the story line. Unlike some games where you are assigned to shoot everything in your way for 160 levels, in this game you have good guys (scietists, security guards) and bad guys (military "clean-up" team, monsters). This game is truly wonderful. Long, challenging, "slightly" gory, and fun!

Summary: Oh HL, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
Review: 1. It's done some things so well that even newer games fall short of it.
2. The multiplayer was engineer'd so sweetly...
3. Ohmygod I love TFC.
4. VALVE CREATED THE ENGINEER. THE ENGINEER WIELDS THE EMP OF DEATH. THUS, HALF-LIFE IS COOL.
5. Sure the graphics arent as nice as things today but at least they're cool for their time and I never get tired of em
6. Mods, Server-Side DLLS and custom maps, oh my...
7. Oh sweet wonderful Half-Life, I have never gotten stuck inside a solid...
8. O thank you Valve, for sparing me the black disconnected screen... (in any case, HL wins forever)

Summary: Still top dog in FPS games
Review: In short, Halflife is THE game. Unparalleled as of yet and the multiplayer, well no one has even come close to matching that aspect of the game. Red Faction was supposed to be a challenge to Halflife's reign as top dog, but don't even get me started on harping on Red Faction, that would be another review altogether. Halflife is still the best and probably will be for a long time to come as no game has come anywhere close to rivaling Halflife in SP or especially in multiplayer.

Summary: Awsome Game
Review: This game rocks. Counter-Strike is the #1 internet multiplayer game. The graphics are intense and the action just makes u adicted. The #1 half-life game is the best. It has intense action with awsome details. This game is the must get game. So if u don't have it yet ur going to want it!!! This under my judgement so if u want to test it out buy it and see for urself.
U'll love this game and it will earn a special place in ur Computer games. This game has a lot of other bonus with it. Really it is like a whole game package. Give this game a chance and it will prove it was worth it!!

Summary: Great
Review: I'm tired of people saying "DO NOT BUY THIS". How can they tell us what to do. And saying "2 out of every 3 people cheat on multiplayer". That is not Valve's problem. This is one of the best games I ever bought. I loved it, I still love it. I'm not going to tell you to get this. I think it is a very well done game. If you get this go to www.planethalflife.com or if you are interested. They have some great half-life MODS(don't worry you'll understand if you get it). Great game. Great fun. Bye

Summary: The Best Game Ever!
Review: Please don't let someone discourage you from buying this game. I have Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress 1.5, Opposing Force, and Blue Shift (all variants of the Half-Life game). This game is the only game you will play once you try it out. It has an actual story line, so the game makes (somewhat) sense (If being a research scientist in a Top Secret U.S. Gov't base makes sense to you). But yes, if you play over the internet, there is a cheating problem, but Valve and Sierra are working on a new anti-cheat system. If multiplayer isn't your thing, then YOU SHOULD PLAY THE SINGLE PLAYER!! (duh). It is worth the money if you like a story line and excellent gameplay.
