Title: Deserves 0 stars for stupidity
Review: Start installing at 9PM, finish at 2AM. That's 5 hours, on an ADSL connection, in January 2005 (ie well after the initial rush). Game suffered from choppy sound, partially fixed by patch. The Steam concept is utterly stupid. If I will complete the game in, say, 20 hours, why should I spend 5 hours loading it? No instructions to explain what is going on - just a single card with default keyboard options. Don't buy this game - to punish them for this stupidity. BTW I loved Half Life. This game is pretty good, but not enough of an advance over other stuff out there to really wow me.
Is the review positive or negative?
