I recently played through Half Life 2, Episode 1 & 2, as well as Lost Coast, during a week and a half off of work. Got Orange box back in the day for Portal & TF2, and always wanted to try the other games that came with it, and seeing how it was 5-10 bucks more so I nabbed em all. After playing through 2, I'm really interested in playing the original Half Life, but have heard next to nothing about it, at least from the friends who talked about HL2 all the time.
Anyone have experience with HL and think it was a good game? Wanted to get a few opinions before I drop some money on it, without looking it up and spoiling it on accident (though I kinda know bits and pieces about it from HL2 references) @_@;;
