Yes it's good but ... short
The HDR is amazing and works verry well on my card with AA and AF set to max

I'm impressed with the graphics less than 15 minutes in.

I finally went ahead and picked it up today for $14.99 from Best Buy. Fry's has it for $12.99 but gas would have cost me about $5 to go to Fry's.

I've just gotten off the stalker train and am really impressed with how good it looks and how well it performs. Initially, I was getting some temporary freezes in the game that were not related to loading data. But, after exiting the game and restarting it, I haven't noticed anymore. Just some very long LOADING periods at times.

Seems to be a good story with some nice puzzles to figure out. Well worth the money.

PS Also provides a nice little break from OBLIVION.

Really love the half life series.. began playing when i was a little kid with hl1.. me and my friends would join up and just look @ how wonderfull the graphics were (in that time) and how brutal the action was..

omg, that really where the good times.

When HL2 came out i went nuts.. finally a new oppertunity (sorry for my bad english

) to fight with Gordon again, the graphics were and are amazing.

Played it all the way thru 3 times and deffenatly stil my number 1 game, altough i like rpgs more.

Half life 2 ep 1 doesnt give many new features but is just a Freaken great sequel to the original half life series and damn, i cant wait till ep 2 releases.

(f i have taken the time i could get all the gramma errors out of this posts but hey, its 1 o clock in the midnight here and im pretty tired form working so show some compasion

)

I like very much HL series, had played ep.1 indeed. But what I really do not like is this "episodes business". Won't buy anymore if it continues in this way, I prefer a whole game.

Valve makes the best games hands down.
