so i think we should set down a premise of how we're evaluating games

 

when talking about story, i believe halo and its universe has a very interesting and deep written story

 

half life however, could actually be on par, its just the method of delievery is different, as proclone pointed out

 

i havent played halo2, i think it should be a good game, but half life 2 is a better game

.... but half life 2 is a better game

I'm not going to vote until I beat HL2.

ok, HL2 may have a MP but can you start it within 10 seconds once you've exited the game without typing anything???

 

after reading lots comments, i've forgotten what B_S had written.......

 

talking about storylines, if you've read the Halo books then you'd have to vote for Halo2, is there any proper novels for HL2?? is there a HL2 universe where you can explore without going into the game and while doing all that, you can also improve your english ;)

Some of us don't have the time to read novels to get "the full story."

 

The novels are their for 2 reasons. A) More money B ) To fill in story holes that were left in the game.

 

Also, Halo 2 cost money on line. Some of us can barely afford games, nevermind being able to afford a monthly subscription like that. I would much rather have to spend a litle time to get free multiplayer, then have to pay to get it right now.

Halo 1 sucked (at least, after I turned to the age of ball-dropping that is). I even bought that piece of rat crap for PC, because consoles blow ass, and it was $20, most likely because no one was buying it because it sucks. I don't know why but the movements of everyone and everything are really freaking choppy, but I am getting 100 fps :blink: Not only that, but the retarded aliens speak English (or whatever language you install it in, I'm guessing) and the little grunt queers are like EE!! EE!! THEY ARE BIGGER!! WE SUCK FOR CRACK!!

 

But every single damned geeky nerd in the universe who is capable of hacking AND Valve have pissed me off royally, and yes, somehow my opinion and emotional status does matter to the rest of the known world. Screw the bushmen. My pissed-off status is a result of that poor excuse of a man in Germany hacking into Valve and stealing HL2 and then "accidently" releasing it (Oops! I conveniently forgot to turn off my firewall!, he probably used as an excuse), and then Valve making the oh-so-wise decision of suspending the project another 85 years to think of a new plot and stuff and remake the whole game. This is the action I don't understand - why give the geeks who contribute to this terrorist cause (YES, I classify hacking as a terrorist crime and it should be punishable by castration, followed by a sex change) the upper hand by creating a NEW plot and making them go "OO, AA!" at a brand spanking new storyline which will blow their minds even more over the previously planned HL2 one? They should have just continued; for people like me, which ironically is the gaming community's majority, who have never seen any tidbits of HL2 gameplay except for that released by Valve themselves, it would be brand spanking new anyway. The nerds would be like "OH MAN, I ALREADY KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN! THIS SUCKS! I'M GOING TO GO MASTERBATE." and then hopefully kill themselves by jerking it too hard and pulling out their spinal cord.

 

EDIT: I seem to have gotten off-track. Halo 2 and Half-Life 2 both suck (because of the reasons I previously stated), but since Halo 2 sucks the most meat, Half-Life 2 gets my vote.

I have to agree with Proclone, barely any of the sentences in your post came out clear. It's all a big mess, you might want to consider rewriting that when you're thinking coherently again. ;)

 

However, I don't think you should go comit suicide. UAV's just a little upset because he'll be reaching -0 posts soon. :P

No, he doesn't really care. After all, it gives him more incentive to spam.... good ideas, that is. Yeah..... *runs away*

 

Nice, get both sides to hate you. On Schtoogie's agenda for tommorow: run into a communist- fascist showdown, yell "Anarchy rules!" then go over to the Middle East and parade around with a pagan idol saying "Zues for Jerusalem! Zeus for Jerusalem!". If you get my point.

The Middle East sucks. I think that the US of A should establish a new effective security doctrine based on racial stereotypes. Since all Middle Easterners are terrorists, if some of those hookah-sucking bastards land in America we gently escort them out with a gigantic cattle prod. Also, all Chinese women drive slowly (and all Chinese people have bad manners) so they would be kicked out immediately as well. As for Italians and Russians, well, they are all either untrustworthy or in the Mafia. French people just smell like the stench of rancid butt (think Cheetos and feces in one giant pile mixed with the ink of a thousand Sharpies), English people have that crappy accent (but they're OK, and since all Americans used to be English, they get a VIP pass into the country) but they're cool anyway, Spaniards just come over here to teach Spanish at our public schools (and everyone hates Spanish, so they get kicked out), and the Japanese are racist turds.

 

The only way that any of these craps would be allowed a pass is if they swear: "By my own genitalia, I swear to never cross the extreme boundaries set by this country. I will not be a (racial stereotype inserted here), nor will I be involved with any (racial stereotype's occupation inserted here) activities." If they step out of line, then they can say bye-bye to their testicles/ovaries, and their children would be taken from them and air-dropped to my house so I can eat them (Babies are like veal - try them sometime! They're great!).

 

And as for my unintelligible post, I was simply stating that I hate hackers and all those geeky twats who have no life and are hellbent on ruining the lives and computers of others as well as ripping multi-million dollar software, and along that note I am mad at Valve for making everyone else wait longer and giving those geeks a brand new storyline to be amazed with. Also, Halo 1 sucked, and I want my money back, dammit!

 

I think I'm going to get banned from this post... :blink:

 

On a further note, anyone who takes me seriously should be raped in the ass by Bigfoot. And as for you, UAV: Go stand under an X-ray machine for a few days, you feces-throwing gorrila fucker.

haloPC was not bad, id rather play haloPC then CS (before HL2 came out)

 

ok, i've seen Halo2's ending and it was crap (so is the last level, and the last level is EASY) anway, has anyone beaten HL2 yet? what's that ending like?? is it the same as HL (which is also crap)

 

you may not realise how much fun the novel contain, once you've beaten the game (haloPC) and while you are reading the novel, you'd think, hum, how did i get this bit?? and compair it to what the MasterChief did. you may not realise it, but i certainly think the novel brings new replaybility to the game

*eyes turn red* Get... out...

 

Nah. Anyway, I've finished HL2, and the ending is a little confusing, frankly. I trust that it will all make sense in the course of... well... I'm really not at liberty to say.

Lol, Bullet_shrapnel, somehow that sentence actually seems a little familiar.

 

Anyway, I liked the ending of Half-Life 2, I would explain it to Bullet_shrapnel a little better, but I wouldn't want to spoil the Half-Life 2 experience for those that haven't beaten the game yet. It's called a "cliffhanger" ending, something that leaves the words "What the fuck just happened" in your head. It'll all make sense when Half-Life 3 comes out.

 

Questions to ask yourself. Did Gordon die, not likely. Did Alyx, Barney, Judith, and Eli die? Who the fuck is G-Man? If you can answer those questions for me, then go ahead.

:lol:

Heh, kinda the point.

 

I did think the ending was great, if the speech from *cough* that guy, was not as good as the one in HL.

NO SPOILERS DAMMIT! I didn't read all of your posts on account of I want the HL2 ending to be a SURPRISE.

 

BTW Burns, I'm not banned. Hu-fucking-zzah.

I don't even own it. I refuse to buy it at this point (you should read my big ass post that nags on about how hackers and geeks suck). I am going to get it for Christmas, I hope...
