It all comes pouring out
Holy crap.
I just finished Half-Life 2, and it rocked.
There is no doubt in my mind now that if there ever was a nerd-duel of epic proportions, Gordon Freeman would kick Master Chief's ass up one side and down the other. He'd be hunchbacked.
In fact, Master Chief would still lose to Freeman, even if you blindfolded Gordon, tied his hands behind his back, and gave Chief a backup squad consisting of Samus Aran, Solid Snake, the entire cast of Naruto, and some Jedi... although the jedi might be pushing it a little.
But he'd still win. Because he's a thinking man, a M.I.T. man of few words who can solve any problem just by looking at it. And he wields a wicked crowbar. And a gravity gun that can pick you up and use your atom-battered corpse as a projectile.
I love this fricking game. The endings of Half-Life 2 and Halo 2 are remarkably similar, though. Almost eerie really. Except HL2's is intentional, and rocks; whereas Halo's is just poor planning.
[nerd seizure]
I should probably stop writing now and go lie down, this is getting depressingly fanboyish. Deservedly so.
