Ok. . . . this is going to be weird.
this game is great but it sucks horribly at the same time. When you start playing it, you'll think its a great buy for $20, and when you beat it, you'll feel as though valve just dry raped you up the arse.
Great graphics, slightly better than HL2 (think its because of that lighting thing they put in), its fairly difficult, and actually gets close to being very slightly scary because you do a lot of stuff in the dark. Theres also a new variety of headcrab zombies, shockingly (note the sarcasm), they're combine with headcrabs. They can even use grenades which is somewhat interesting considering most other enemies are just sort of. . . either shoot you or run at you and attack. Barney now has a cut on his forehead, and you get a closer look at stalkers. That is about it. The game takes like 3-4 hours to beat on your first run through and its $20, thats where the dry anal rapage comes into play. You're going along, thinking to yourself "oh this is cool, some new little bits and they have some more interesting puzzles and theres better looking clutter on the ground (some of it has the red-hot edges that metal can get when you heat it up), and the story is interesting", and then it abruptly ends and its just. . . . where the fuck did the rest of the game go? Not to mention the thing took bloody forever to download.
Anyways, if you want the story, buy it. If you want new and exciting gameplay. . . . go pay your sibling the $20 and have them like jump off stuff or something.
