alright guy. that you think valve isn't a good company speaks loads about your knowledge. half-life 2 wasn't a good game? get the fuck out of here. half-life, half-life 2, portal 1 + 2, Left 4 Dead 1 + 2, Counter-strike, Day of Defeat, the original Team Fortress.. there's a reason it takes them so long between sequels. because they're not like activision, turning out new products every other year for profit. they put out -quality-.

Valve is a classic company that stayed true to their roots and innovates through their technology and ideas. If you think Valve aren't that great of a company, then I'd LOVE to know what your idea of a GOOD company is. They must be paragons of the industry.

if your pc sucked too much to run it, then whatever that's your own fault too.. but half-life 2 was fantastic, from both a gameplay and a technological standpoint. and ESPECIALLY from a sequel standpoint. there is a reason it has won some -39- game of the year awards. i'd love to hear your reasoning if i didn't know it was going to be a bunch of self righteous made up bullshit in order to make yourself SOUND like you have some semblance of a clue what you're talking about.

and you mean TF2, the game which is now free2play? yeah that game, which has seen well over 100 patches since its creation, compared to more popular games like call of duty which see maybe 2 patches through their lives before the next crap game is churned out. patches which not only fix it, but also add countless new content for players to enjoy without having to purchase pointless expansions?

your comparison is a bit backwards.. they're not forcing you to pay anything to play it. they didn't take anything away from the players who bought the game. nor did they start charging for anything you can't get by playing the game. anything you can buy in the store can be crafted, gotten in a drop, or traded for anyways so there are no unfair items in the store.

so what's the point of your comparison? another 'game you dont like' so you think you can make things up in your head to give you a reason not to like it?
