Time to Clarify Half-life 2

[dream431ca]

People have been saying that graphics of Half-life 2 overshadow all the other stuff..your missing one thing...MANIPULATOR...lets face it..if Half-life 2 never had the Manipulator or physics..Half-life 2 would suck..you know I'm right..I mean what kind of person is NOT buying Half-life 2 because of the Manipulator or physics?...it's just the hard truth people..graphics do not make a game (unless your talking about Doom 3). It's the gameplay. ( oh..and yes I am trying to start a debate....why cause it's fun. :thumbs: )

EDIT: oh..and thanks to the moderators for deleting my last bad post.. YOU ROCK!!! :thumbs:

if Half-life 2 never had the Manipulator or physics..Half-life 2 would suck..you know I'm right...it's just the hard truth people

with an argument like that, you're bound to lose the 'debate'

 

[chriso20]

i think its the story that people grasp onto. Closely followed by gameplay so shove that comment up your...

 

[DavE0r]

lol...i clicked the wrong one. Clicked Manipulator instead of EVERYTHING!!

i mean its all part of the package, but i think the people witth Dx7 low end systems will get just as much out of the game as people with high end uber systems. (except for sticky eyes, from the lack of eye candy)

 

[FoB_Ed]

Everything, it's not just one thing. Some games seem to focus on one main aspect of the game.

Like Doom 3 and graphics

How the hell can we vote when none of us have played the game? This is dumb..

MANIPULATOR...lets face it..if Half-life 2 never had the Manipulator or physics..Half-life 2 would suck..you know I'm right..I mean what kind of person is NOT buying Half-life 2 because of the Manipulator or physics?...

That's one of the most stupid statements I've ever heard.

Yep that's true :|

 

[ScRaTcH-A-HoLiC]

I would have to say everything.. I couldnt choose only one..

 

[vorinoch]

Yeah... that's right, graphics don't make the game, the physics do! Right.

Maybe I'm bitter and irritable in my old age but I hate all polls with the very fabric of my being.

MANIPULATOR cmon guys whats funner than decapitation

 

[Dr. Freeman]

well obviously theres alot of eye-candy in the game but Valve's ability to put all the things together seems to make the game good.

 

[GuNzABlaZiN]

How about we play the game first?

come on..don't give me that...you know that if valve didn't invent something like the Manipulator (along with the physics)..half-life 2 would not be as good..it would just be another first person shooter...

 

[f|uke]

Thinking about it,. I would totally love HL2 even without all the shaders and physics.. all that stuff is just icing.

If you ask me what makes the game, I'd say the developer's philosophy.

EVERITHING cuz is HL2 LOL!!1

 

[oldagerocker]

Exactly, im only buying half-life2 because it's the sequal to half-life, one of the best games ever. Not because of any special feature, not one thing is more special than something else in this game, it's well balanced. So i voted 'everything'.

 

[pixartist]

this poll should allow multiple selections...

 

[Asuka]

Everything.

But mainly story.

 

[wayne white]

hl1 didnt had manipulator or physics and was the greatest game of his life

 

[Mr. Redundant]

Im going to have to say "Gameplay"
take away all the phyisics, lip-synching and.. well the gfx arent top notch to begin with, but take that away too.. and it still will be a great (should be) experience.

I mean Im sure they havent been masturbating for the past 6 years... or have they?

wait!! what do you mean HL2 has no mp component other than cs!!?! blasphemy!

i can kill you...i just have to fill out some paperwork.

every...EVERY thread u have made in this forum, has been COMPLETE garbage. STOP making threads, your hurting everyones brains with your stupidity. if you think the only thing hl2 has going for it is physics and the ****in manipulator, u might as well not even but the game.

Everything! I love it ALL!
