So, it's 2 better than Doom 3. That's not good enough, Valve.

"I think the scale is probably highly exponential in the 90+ range. For example, there's a much wider difference between 96 and 94, than say, 76 and 74."
but the mag only gives scores between 90-100

Not only that, they also called it "a masterpiece of the art form." If there's one thing Doom 3 isn't, it's a masterpiece. If there's a second thing Doom 3 isn't, it's art.

DSN2K said:just so you guys know, this is the 2nd 96% PCgamer have ever given.
First was HL1.
No. It's at least the fourth. Tie Fighter and Gabriel Knight 2 were both given 96's before the original Half-Life.

tbh we were all expecting 90+ anyways, due to it being an exclusive review (imagine the bidding!) and realistically we all know HL2 will be good.
in fact valve could have just ported the original into a new engine and most people would be happy (in fact they did!)
the 'phyiscs' and interaction and there being more than 8 bodies on screen at any one time will catapult it far past DOOM3, unfortunate that there is no real multi, only CS...

With the new Source editions of CS and DoD, and even an enhanced HL1...why the fuck isn't there a proper Source edition of TFC? I mean...they're going to take another two years to finally bring out TF2...so, why not? Or am I just ranting because I don't know that they are in fact releasing a Source edition of TFC?
My guess is that TFC2 will use the Source Engine, which I really hope, and be sold as either an add-on or a completely new stand-alone game. So no Source TFC until then...
Anyway, too bad there is no real MP in HL2, I had waaaaaay too much fun in HL1 before TFC and CS... It really was a mess back then, rockets flying everywhere, scarabs crawling up behind you, a sniper takin shots at you, one red button which kills almost everyone instantly...
They better come with a mod recreating those events, cause that would rock so damn hard!

Is there a good story faq for Half-Life 1?
I remember very little about the plot, or even how it ended.
Edit: In response to the concerns about minimum specs, according to planet half-life:

Something about hitting a giant floating fetus in its exposed brain with a crowbar.
