Not a bad action figure, but what is the fascination with Half-Life? The original game was a flaming pile of shit, and the remake was only a minor improvement.
"On its release, critics hailed its overall presentation and numerous scripted sequences, and it won over 50 Game of the Year awards in 1998-99.[5] Its gameplay influenced first-person shooters for years to come, and it has since been regarded as one of the greatest games of all time.[6]
With over eight million copies sold since, Half-Life is the best-selling PC first-person shooter to date.[7] The Half-Life franchise has seen over 15 million sales.[8]
Half-Life was critically acclaimed, earning an overall score of 96% on review collection website Metacritic.[37] IGN described it as "a tour de force in game design, the definitive single player game in a first person shooter."[38] Even IGN respects the game as one of the most influential video games.[38] Gamespot claimed that it was the "closest thing to a revolutionary step the genre has ever taken".[39] Gamespot inducted Half-Life into their "Greatest Game of All Time" list in May 2007.[40]"
