Customer Review: Where are my feet???
There’s a lot to like about half-life 2. I tried playing half-life, but honestly, the frustration on the PC got out-of-hand. The issue wasn’t the PC, the computer is far more powerful than need be, but the issue was with the character moving like he’s on roller skates. Yes, I mean it. When I play Oblivion or Bioshock the screen looks and the movement feels like walking or running, when you play a Half-Life game, it’s like gliding. I would be okay with the “gliding” movement, but when you have to make some careful jumps, or you can fall off an edge you can’t “feel” your feet. I know it sounds weird but the character in Half-Life is just an arm with a gun mounted to a unicycle. So my issue with both games is that it doesn’t feel like human movement, it’s too slick and fast. When you get close up on an enemy and try to center on it the slightest touch to the joy-stick sends your site right past. Now, why do I like HL2? Well, for one, the PS3 control is easier to use for this game than “WASD” config on the keyboard. When playing the PC version I feel like every key stroke just moves the character too fast and too far and there’s no way to slow him down. Also, I like the PS3 has all five games on one disk, that’s lovely, and the quick-save is a must-have. The graphics look lovely through my 42″ Bravia 3LCD via HDMI 1.3 and the 7.1 LPCM sound is fairly intense, though some extra rear ambiance would have added to the experience. A warning, if you have your PS3 plugged into a receiver that does not process LPCM, you will likely get a 2.1 mix for sound. (suggestion, the new STR DG720 Sony is $299.00, excellent 7.1 LPCM playback!) Overall the one thing I can’t get around, no feet! I got stuck between to pipes and had to go back to the last save point, when I look down, no feet? WHERE’S the REST OF ME??? Really, all this work into the game and there’s no dude holding the damn gun. When you walk along a narrow ledge or pipe, he just glides, you look down, no feet, no body, nothing. So my issue with Half-Life 1 & 2 all episodes is that the guy has no feet. It doesn’t matter if your one a pipe, the dirt or concrete he moves exactly the same, like a wheel on a flat surface. To me, in a game like this control is everything to gameplay and when I feel like the character can’t be controlled gameplay is diminished. Also, a not to game developers: Could you please let us program the controller like we can the Keyboard and Mouse? Really? Please? I want to be able to look with the right and move with the left, but all the left axis does is strafe left and right, not turn. I hate this!!! I don’t need it to strafe! I want to be able to turn and look separately and not use to sticks just to move! All and all, an okay game, but I think enough issues to say that it could have been so much better.
Customer Review: Super great title for PS3!
If you have a PS3, then you need The Orange Box. Halflife has always been a favorite of mine, and since my computer stoped running it, I was very excited to get it on my PS3. The rumors that the critics and 360 fanchildren say about the framerate being bad and it having horible load times are complete lies. The framerate runs at a constant 30FPS which is what the game is designed to run on. I’ve only noticed a few, and I mean VERY few dips in the framerate. And as far as the load times go, if you can’t wait 10-15 seconds for a game to load, then perhaps you should not be playing video games. Halflife 2 and the other 2 episodes runs better on my PS3 than they did on my old PC. Also, Portal is one of the most inovative games out there, a must try. As far as Team Fortress goes, I don’t have my PS3 online so I can’t give a review on that, but I’ve heard its really good. Hands down this is one of the best titles for the PS3 to date. If you are an old Halflife fan, or a first person sci-fi fan then this game is for you!
