I have HL2 for Xbox, cause my PC doesn't have high enough performance... I'm pretty far along, been playin for over 500 minutes, and I'm currently on Nova Prospekt IIRC. No cheats used, no guides, I've had to figure out everythin myself. Me and my (10 yr old) nephue have been takin' turns playing (Cause I like bein on the computer more) and I'd say we both have gotten around 250-270 minutes each. Despite being 10 yrs old, he rocks. I'd say hes a better gamer at ten than I was by twelve. We've gotten very far on 2 player Halo 2 also... Not to mention hes nearly beaten GTA SA (I never tried, I like cheats and freeroaming)

I like the GIANT Antlions, when the small ones are following you and the big one is trying to kill you, ohhh so fun! I swear, the giant antlions are the only things my nephue can't beat :lol:

Tell me some of you favorite moments in HL2 :)

Edit: Im actually on the chapter Anti-Citizen One, with 700+ minutes ;)

HL2 for PC is far better looking. Rarly slows down, is about 60+ FPS all the time. Lot more detailed...

Best HL2 Moments? Every second of the game, but my favorites are

-Starting out. G-Man is talking to you in his erie voice. Walking around, playing with the physics. Ah! Beautiful

-GG. As soon as I got that I was blown away. Never before has physics been so awesome, and never before have they been used so much in a game...

-The ending. I won't say anymore then I loved it.

I made it to "Follow Freeman" a few hrs back. I really dont see what the big deal about the GG is, I like the double-barrel shotgun and the .357 revolver. Rockin.

Against combine soldiers, the guns are more effective, but why waste your bullets on clumbsy and stupid zombies when you can pick up and saw and blow their head clean off???

The fact is, the GG is the coolest gun ever in any game...

GG>Shotgun>Assault Rife

Those 3 guns are excellent...

ShotGun > GG > Revolver > MachineGun > Arrows > Pistol

Anyone know how to get past the part where there are lazers shooting from the sky, and you have to get past 3 blue barriers?

As soon as you get to the street, run all the way across, stopping in the upturned dumpster if you need health, and you will see a door. Run it in. Kill the soldiers, and just keep going...

You wait till a few more hours. You will be in hell....

If you don't have a half-way decent PC then do so...

Half-Life 2 isn't a graphic's hog either...

HL2 for PC is... Too much for most computers... It's like F.E.A.R. pretty much. But the Xbox version is good if your computer sucks and you're better with Xbox over keyboards. I like the XB version better.
