Simply Amazing.

This game was nothing short of amazing. It had great visuals. Not only was the skin textures great, there was amazing lighting, good blood and gore and your bullets left holes. It had very epic boss fights, such as the leviathan (a one thousand foot tall chimera) which picks you up and hurls you through a building and into another after you fire a rocket into its mouth, at which point it starts destroying the building you are in, and the cracken, which you fight on a floating platform next to the golden gate bridge. It had creative weapons, such as the bullseye, which you could fire a "tag" which would make all of your bullets seek whatever you hit, the Auger, which can shoot through walls, and the splicer which throws spinning red hot razor blades, which proceed to ricochet of walls and tear the limbs of your enemies.

You could tell that the makers of the game spent a lot of time on the game because of all of the detail in the stages. The shelves were full of labeled cereal boxes and there were posters for movies on the walls. I also liked the variety of enemies. there were the normal chimera, titans, which were chimera of approximately 30 feet, ravagers, which were somewhere between the size of a normal chimera and a titan, the grim, which were basically the zombies of resistance, and a lot of machines. The only disappointing thing about the game was the ending boss fight. The first section was him ripping apart the pods you were in while trying to grab you, but all you had to do here was sit in a corner and then run to the other corner and he couldn't get you. Then, when you actually got to fight him it was way to easy. You just had to run away until he was next to some electrical thing and shoot it so it would electrocute him and then repeat that about three times.

The Orange Box is a great game.

First off, Half life 2 (and episodes 1 and 2). This game has a fairly nice story, and is very addictive. The combat is great (partly thanks to the gravity gun, a weapon that lets you hurl most any relatively small object in the game at your enemies.) and the boss fights are amazing. The game also tends to differ in the "horror rating" depending on the stage. While some stages are pure sci-fi action, others are quite scary. On the stage called Ravenholm, it startes you off in the middle of the night , facing a tree that has the bottom half of a body hanging from it by a rope.you later find the top half of this body on table in a shed with a giant razor in its back.
Second in the box, Portal. This Game is amazing. You are a test subject in a facility run by a quite humorous cake-obsessed computer. You are given a tool called the portal gun, which you can use to get over high places by shooting a portal on the ceiling other side of the high place, and then one under your feet. You can make very long jumps using momentum, and make turrets fall from the ceiling in another room. You use this gun to complete various challenging puzzles, and to try to escape the reseach facility. Also, when you beat the game, you are rewarded by the very funny song, "still alive".
And last of all, Team Fortress 2. This game has simple, but nice graphics, no story whatsoever, but is very, very fun. There are a variety of classes, and each is completely unique. There is the pyro, who wears a gas mask and is equipped with a flamethrower, The scout, who is very fast, equipped with a sawed-off shotgun, a baseball bat, runs fast and can jump again in mid air, the spy, who can turn invisible, or wear a disguise that makes him look like the other team, and is equipped with a pistol, a knife, and a "sapper" which destroys creations made by and engineer, and many more. The only problems i have with this game is that if you are not hooked up to the internet on your PS3 or 360, you cannot play it, and when you are it has quite a few bugs.
