But I could also understand the criticism when you compare it to Bioshock which blends in RPG elements and an unforgettable environment/story. Or when you compare it to Call of Duty 4 which fleshes a FPS into action packed adrenaline rush edge of your seat gameplay with great control and pacing. When compared to these two FPS (NOT even considering graphics at all) Half life 2 feel like twice its age.

Again I enjoyed the game, but I did not hesitate to sell it once i completed all 3 campaigns.
