HL2 is peak first person shooter. More recent games have added a lot, but after playing through HL2 recent, it's really nice to strip all that extra stuff away.

I can see why people didn't like some parts (boat, car) but they're so iconic to me.

Except episode 2 (1?) car shit with the buckeyballs. Fuck that.

I disagree, I cannot see why people dislike those parts—the tension is fantastic in both
