 Seriously, don't buy it used or it won't work! July 3, 2008
I have no idea how the game is because I bought it from an Amazon marketplace seller and now the "Steam" anti-piracy protection system won't let me play it.
I went to the Steam support pages like I was told to, and I read this:
"... you must have a copy of your purchase receipt from within the last 90 days to have the CD Key moved to your account.
"We do not accept receipts from online auction websites or used software vendors. If you do not provide a purchase receipt, Valve will not be able to transfer the CD Key."
I can't believe that anyone accepts this as a reasonable way to sell consumers a game in a box, but I guess they do!
I read a thread on some Half-Life 2 forum where the users were telling a guy not to bother Valve, the software creators, with questions about their policy, but rather just to return his used game to whoever he bought it from.
Unbelievable!
From what I hear, maybe if I send the right person at Valve an actual photo of my box, and wait two months, I might be allowed to play. However, that's certainly not what the text on the Steam support page says.
If this is really the accepted practice regarding used copies of Half-Life 2, then what is Amazon doing letting their marketplace sellers sell these used copies?
Unbelievable! How much research is one supposed to do when buying a game?
 Simply the best FPS ever April 28, 2008

Ignore the 1 or 2 star comment this game is the best ever.
Pros:
Excellent Graphics
Well thought out and original story line
Challenging and makes you think
Suspensful
Gravity Gun
And don't get me started on DOG.
Cons:
None
But it does not end here, buy episodes 1 and 2. They add to the fun.
But I REALLY, EXTREMLY RECOMMEND BUYING THE ORANGE BOX.
It includes Half Life 2 and episode 1-2, Portal(fun and challenging puzzle game), and Team Fortress 2 For only 60$!!!
Steam still sucks April 13, 2008
Played this when it first came out and decided pay it again-dealing with Steam is preventing me from playing the game just like last time,it took days to get a response.Back in the basement with this game I will never buy a product that has anything to do with Steam

This game is one of the best things to hit the half-life series. With ramped up graphics and a solid story half-life packs twice the punch this time around. SPOILER!!!!. in this game you don't go to black mesa (although you can go back in Half-life:Source which uses the great graphics and plays through the story again.) but instead you go to a certain City 17 which is run by a "alien" race called the combine where you are on a train after the g-man put you in a stasis after the end of the original. From there you are then through security to find Barney the security guard from the original also. From the beggining you are immersed in the story and you will be on the edge of your seat. This game can even run on lower end machines with great graphics still.
