Half LIfe 2

[thebitterguy]

Oh,yeah: Uday got this for me for my birthday last year, and I've finally gotten a bit more into it.

Fun game (I enjoy charging foes screaming "I AM MORGAN FREEMAN!"), but really, a suit whose flashlight doesn't last more than 20 seconds? Can we get someone on this project who isn't an idiot?

Oddly enough, I played that for the first time today. Coincidence?

Half-Life 2 is great for two reasons: one, the physics engine (once you've finished with the game and the first episode, check out Gerry's Mod, which turns HL2 into one giant sandbox) and two, Dog.

ALL KIDS LOVE DOG!

(d'oh, I just saw you're playing on Xbox and I think Gerry's Mod is PC-only. sorry for getting your hopes up. But I once made this awesome rocket car and it went screaming right into a brick wall and when it exploded, all these Russian letters came flying out.)

I hope so. Otherwise you've got me under surveillance or something.

Things to shout while you're beating someone with a crowbar:

"I'm a physicist! Want some physics?! Want some more? Do ya? DO YA?!?!"

Dog is in fact pretty awesome.

Shame on you for taunting me with Gerry's Mod.

I'll bet physics programs had a sudden influx after Half Life, like Journalism schools did after All the President's Men.
