I liked multiplayer Halo. I liked Half-Life. I'll probably like Halo 2 when I pirate it for the PC. And I'll probably like Half-Life 2 when it's unlocked 3 days from now. None of these games is anything better than 'pretty good' on my book, though, and seriously debating their merits and demerits on the internet is way too nerdy for me. Most commercial modern games are based on graphics and atmosphere rather than gameplay, so if I want a really good time playing an action game, I'll play N or Sonic 2 or something.
