- Updated Review
Well after 4 days of cursing and swearing, I finally got everything installed. 4 days after that, my computer died a violent death.

Having installed it on Vista (SP2), and it installed perfectly, all I can say is WOW!!!!

I've just completed "Portal" and it is amazing.

And Half Life 2 is just amazing. Every so often I have to walk away. The atmosphere is just terrifying. Be warned. It's a 15, but I do wonder if it shouldn't be an 18 for atmosphere and some of the monsters.

I've only had it for a few weeks, and have not played Episodes 1 or 2, and I don't have network access, so Team Fortress is out, but I am so pleased with what I got. And all for £15 from Tesco.

Go get it..

- For God's sake - just buy it!
I made the naive mistake of not buying this, thinking "Half-Life 2 might not be so great and I may not want the episode packs; Team Fortress 2 looks silly and Portal looks weird. I'll just buy HL2 and save money."

Well, two months on and I'm sorely regretting not buying this because I have since bought EVERY game individually, and regard each one as one of my all-time favourites.

Half-Life 2 (and particularly the episodes) are beyond explosive and it's very playable despite the age. I never once felt the game was 'dated', due in part to Steam still updating their older games - I was impressed to see HL2 making use of my 64-bit processor, which is more than many brand new games do. Oh, and Team Fortress 2 is the *only* ... Read More:

- A MUST BUY GAME
you get 3 games. team fortress 2 is a brillaint FPS game. the best i have played.

Half Life was O.K, not as good a previous games, but enjoyable.
brilliant value for money.

- Total and utter waste of time.
Is Half Life 2 any good? Who knows. If you're as unfortunate as me you'll never get to the stage where you can actually -play- the game.

I brought Half Life 2 by itself, and it took three hours to get it installed - not because my PC is slow or anything like that - but because the installer hadn't been tested properly, and doesn't work very well; saying files don't exist when they blatantly do.

Once you're past that, you need to register on steam before you can even play offline. After that, you need to unlock your game before you can play it. At this point, if you're like me you'll be wondering what the hell the point of all this nonsense is. While you're pondering, the unlocking procedure will sieze up at around 33%. You ... Read More:

- Great Deal!
Your getting a great deal if your buying from here rather than on Steam!

Cost on Steam = $46.99 = £26.79

Amazon = £24.98 (and you get a lovely Dvd case too, isn't that nice?)
