i first got a tip about half life 2 from my cousin that it was coming out for the x box.I thought to myself great idea to get this great game going for a system other than the pc.So how is it?its great,its a great single player adventure which captures the attention of all pc gamer fans.The graphics are great and the interactive environment is amazing.when i first started playing i knew it was much more than just a first person shooter it was much more.you start off in train its almost like a movie.But i dont want to give anything away.i found out walking around you can pick up mostly anything.I started messing around with the guards by throwing empty chines food cartons at them and having to run from them as they chased me with stun batons.
There are many weapons of choice at hand as well. youll find out later in the game that throwing food cartons dont do to much damage to your enemys(no damage at all to be quite exact).you can discover many weapons such as the shot gun my personal favorite.its not to great at long range of course but has a strong impact up close.theres also the zero gravity gun which allows you to pick heavier environmental objects up that you cant pick up on your own.this weapon comes in handy as youll see near the end of the game and pretty much during the whole game.then you have your common pistol(cant have a first person shooter with out it)which all so comes in handy its like a swiss army knife if you run out of all other options you still have your pistol!then you have somthing a bit new a revolver,a pretty nice one too,its power is incredible and can be used for and range and enemy and any time if you dont waste all of the bullets for it.it truly is a fun gun to use.now you have doom buggy a water craft and a ................crane not much of a vehicle but hey you can pick up anything metal i mean anything its fun to pick up those giant storage pod things and drop them on people ahhhhhhhh never gets old.the doom buggy is used for a while and is really fun to drive it has a pretty nice gun that i think could have been better but hey thats me.you can get at a pretty nice speed with it to and it starts to grow on you cause you gone through so much hard times with it it almost brang tears to my eyes when it was time to part from it.but before you get that great little contraption you get a water craft not one of my favorites because of its loose and some times uncontrolling handling but is still fun.thats pretty much it for the vehicles but WAIT theres much much more.in levels you can destroy your enemys giant spider like vehicles with a rocket launcher,cool.and do other cool things like drop cars on the zombie like creatures who you are also trying to run from.and you get to run into some crazy old dude who likes guns and hanging out in the grave yard ,weird old crazy dude gotta love him.there are much more great puzzling levels that you have to figure out and solve .now dont cheat your self and get a game guide unless your really stuck or you like to see the weapons and maps which is understandable.but its a great game to play by yourself .........well you can only play by your self which is one of the disappointments that were appointed to me before i started playing so after you have beat it theres nothing else to do exept beat it again but it is still very much worth buying even though there are no co-op modes ,multiplayer,or system link which i think is the best accessory for the x box.but this game is still worth buying and is alot of fun and excitement on the way.
