You have to kill the SAME ENEMY over and over and over. I never finished Half-Life, just because I got bored before doing it (And being an FPS doesn't help it too much. 2 other great examples of this are Flashback and Another World.Īnd I agree with Drake in another point: HUGE games usually gets boring before you finish it. This game is big enough, and it never gives you the feeling of being missing something. And then I'll know I have missed something.ĭrake gave a good example: Alone in the Dark. Silent Hill may have dozens of different paths and 5 different endings, but after I finish it the first time (I must add I never played Silent Hill), I'll hardly want to play it again, I'll probably want to move to something else. I love to have freedom in my games, but I hate when I have freedom and still I need to follow certain paths to finish the game. But you're right, Half-Life is much more action oriented than SS1 I compared Half-Life to SS1 in the adventure aspect of both.

I never said Half-Life is a bad game, but I think it's too overrated.
