Behold people... I bring you some of the stupidest remarks ever said by a reviewer about HL2.
http://www.firingsquad.com/features/e3_2004_part_3/page4.asp
Now what I find funny and stupid about this article is that he goes off about Valve "showing the stuff you can do in HL2" on purpose. MY oh my, I guess they should have just let a toddler play around with the mouse and hope he showed the gameplay of the HL2 engine. Not only that but he accusses them of not showing the true gameplay of the game because they "didn't have a playable demo" even though gamespy and a lot of other gamesites were invited to play 3 levels of HL2 for their reviews. Even if the reviewer were lacking this info (which he should not, this is his job after all) any reasonable person would know that in-engine footage cannot be faked.
He even argues about how they made it so "...the car crashed through the fence on purpose so the wood would break..." and even claimed that they didn't crash it into the house because it wouldn't break. Do I even need to go on?
Comments?
PS: They have a comments section, maybe a few people should go comment on his "review".
