You are entitled to your opinion. But to save your self, give some valid reasons.DrunkWithPower said:The orange box minus all the Half Life.... I rather dislike Half Life.
Heavy load to fend off with that statement.
Burning riot shields are not very practical.
That shield, my dear escapist, is all I need to say. But if I must, I dislike the game from start to finish. I swat at the story because it's feels bland and I don't feel attached to any of the characters. The gameplay run and gun is boring with boring blah blah in between. I felt more compassion for the monsters because I too wanted to kill the humans. That better? Flame shield still stands.brumby said:
This is a tough choice, but really I like almost all (CS can suck a big one) the valve games on there own merits.
favorite MP competitive is TF2
Favorite MP cooperative is self explanatory (but Garrys Mod deserves an honorable mention in this category)
favorite SP is Half Life 2 (Portal deserves an honorable mention because its a damn good puzzle game)
so the majority of valve's recent games have been very good.

You cant compare a singleplayer game to multiplayer, they have different elements in them.
my favourite singleplay game from Valve would be Half Life 2 and my favourite multiplayer game would be Team Fortress 2

Half life 2 series. Incredible characters (and one of the few games that made my sympathize with the villain without being the villain (ala Overlord) and several moments I wondered why I couldn't join the combine). Alright the shooting is ho-hum perhaps. Not bad, but theres little that can't be solved with shift+w+M2 with the shotgun. The immersion is incredible, and it's hard to not be drawn into the shoes of Gordon (plus valve's sense of humor persists as they mock his muteness). There are some truly epic moments, such as the prison in Half life 2, as well as the final battle (no spoilers for you) in episode 2.
Next is, without a doubt, TF2. It is one of the most balanced, non-grenade spammy, shooters know. It has no regenerative health, so you know exactly how close you are to death (see cod), has no grenades or insta-death rockets (see TFC or HL2 DM), is INCREDIBLY balanced all things considered, and has enough unique things to prevent it from feeling cookie cutter (Ubercharges, Rocket jumps (though i have seen these preformed in other games, these feel fluid and natural) Backstabs, fire, and lest we forget THROWING BOTTLES OF URINE).

A tie between Half Life for the singleplayer and TF2 for the multiplayer. Portal gets a well-deserved honourable mention.
