    That's odd. I haven't had any problems whatsoever.

    I have a 9800xt too it runs sooo good.

    I dont know how they have done it... but it looks better than css and runs better too. mebey cs is just ghey for life?

    It was so movie like, the characters faces are really cool.

    GHA its so good, I might beat it again now.

    Dog was fucking awesome. I played fetch with AI! I hate valve for there animations working soo flawlessly. !! So jealous. Oh and the girls fighting over Freeman, GOOD STUFF.

    I'm at Raven port myself, cool stuff. Boat ride awesome, I kicked heli ass.

    I give Fletch at 10/10 for being WRONG. YOUR OPINION IS WRONG!

    Only bad thing was once or twice ai would block my way. But thats what makes halflife, halflife isnt it?

    Oh and I spent an hour making a staircase out of two cars, a washing machine (which you cant pickup) and a few boxes. Once I got up to where I was building to, I saw the door I was meant to use... but thats my fault..

    I'm at Ravenport. What difficulty mode are you guys playing in? I'm playing in Hard and so far it's been pretty easy. The only part I've had to try more than probably 2-3 times has been a small sewer where I reached a save point with only like 20 health and a swarm of 6-8 of those flying blade things surrounds me.

    i can see what all this fuzz about the dog is...

    its a robot... dog...

    like, yeah, halflife 2 is the best game ever!! but whats up with the dog? it was ok, not "OMFG TAHT DOG OWN3D SO MUCH I ALMOST CRAPED MAH PANTS WHIEL PLAYNG!1!!111!"

    i dont get it... its like all those kids loving that stupid character in starwars (dont shoot me for that comparison, it was a bad one )

    it's an artificial character twice over... a robot inside a computer game---yet it's been imbued with such sincere animation and behavior that i felt genuine affection for the thing. i dunno but that means something to me.

    a robot inside a computer game... yeah, never seen that before:P and the animations were okay, sure. But so's the animations in all good games... (max payne, halo, all those ww2 games medal of honor etc)

    i still dont get it maybe some of you have a dog-thing, and this character makes it possible for you to come out of the closet secretly

    the animation on dog is better than any game you listed, and probably any game ever. it was astoundingly good.

    I tried swimming out to sea once. Big mistake. Those leeches have really been upgraded since HL1.

    Also (don't read if you haven't completed the game):

    There seems to be a few enemies that were criminally underused or even unexplained, perhaps because they had no proper AI to use: the Itchysaur should have been a boss fight or something, rather than just a quick scare during the teleport mishap; inside the citadel there's 2 enemy types that you never get to see up close, the Stalker which is basically an lobotomised human mess used for what looks like menial tasks, but also as you rise in the casket towards Breen's office, there's a few walking Combine stegosaurus things you see walking from a distance, and this is the only time you ever see them.

    That's what custom single player packs will be useful for.
