Yeah, it's high time we made a place of our own! A bunch of us were talking Portal 2 yesterday in OT, and really, any self-respecting gamer would have Valve's babies (whether you're a man or woman).
So HAVE AT IT!
So HAVE AT IT!

I'm a Half-Life fanatic! I want HL2: Episode Three now! I want Portal 2. But I probably won't be getting it at launch.
I'd like to get a PS3 and get the PS3 version because apparently it comes with the PC version as well to download to Steam. Wicked. Plus My PC stinks and I don't to get it on 360 even if I have many hours logged into The Orange Box.
The Orange Box is definitely one of the best video games of all time.
If you like to count it as a standalone that is.
I still play Half-Life 1 all the time. And Opposing Force/Blue Shift.Comment

OpFor is one of the best game expansions ever

Lol. I love portal. Love Half life even more though (not the first one though. The first one bored me) Really looking forward to when Episode 3 comes out. All of the half life 2 series gives you such a strong feeling of emersiveness.Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.Comment

Digi, I approve.
I recently played through Portal again for kicks. Kinda wondering if Portal 2's increased length - or so I'm assuming - will change the experience a lot or simply extend the enjoyment and stuff.~ When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take back the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! WITH THE LEMONS! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that BURNS YOUR HOUSE DOWN! ~

This.
I love you all for this.
I'm a huge Valve fangirl, have even dressed up as some of Valve's characters at one point for an anime convention. I love the Left 4 Dead games, but love Portal even more, and love Half-Life even more than Portal. I need Episode 3 now! I have a very strong urge to kick some Combine ass. I recently beat Half-Life 2 and its episodes on Hard. Man, the end of Episode 2 is hard, even on Normal!
Also, I have Portal 2 preordered.

I just can't get into it. I mean I have played the whole thing but I just couldn't really enjoy it. But I'm the same with all old FPS's. I mean I love old nostalgic games (DOS is my God) but Half life is an exception.Originally posted by Replicator Todd View PostYou didn't like the first Half-Life?!

I do however at the same time still love CounterStrike a lot. The original is a ton of fun to play.Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.Comment

For all Half-Life fans, and even if you're not, I'd recommend watching this machinima series called Freeman's Mind - basically, it's one guy playing the game and saying what Gordon would be thinking at the time. Hilarity ensues and I know I like to think Gordon's that crazy in real life. The first episode is here and the rest can be found from there, and while it takes a few episodes to get going, I very enjoyed it. Coarse language and stuff, so yeah.~ When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take back the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these?

Counter-Strike is my favourite game of all time.
Half-Life 2 is a great game as well. Gotta love the gravity gun.sigpicComment
