i had this same problem when i got the orange box and i was completly lost when i played hl2 before the original then i played half life and every 5 minutes i was like "ohhhhh.... i get it now"
Honestly either way your going to be confused. Half-Life 2 has a great story...if the get past the whole "WTF is happening!?" part.

oops. i thought you were asking if we had played half life before half life 2.
to be totally honest, it doesn't really matter. the storylines are very different, and not really linked at all. only play the first one first if you want to know why gordon ends up working for g-man, if you're not lazy enough to just use wikipedia.

No, half life made me question physics facilitys. For instance. Why does a physics faclity need grenades, health facilitys, armour repairation faciltys, submachineguns, assault rifles and pistols. I mean come on, why? Did they know that aliens were going to invade? In which case, a heads up before entering the room with the crystal would have been nice. I mean is it that hard to say, oh btw aliens might jump out and start cappin asses, so, yh watch out for that. In any case, I didn't find any other scientists while playing. Some one shot all of them, in the face, repeatedly. I totally found them like that.
I played the Half-Life 2 demo to get a little insight of what all the fuzz was about. That demo left me really hanging because of all these person that apperantly knew you. I mean, who the fuck is this guy in blue suit? Never the less, I played through HL1 first to get the whole story and bam, suddenly everything was much clearer.
Long story short, if you're a story-nazi like myself then by all means play the first one first but if you just want a slight actionbreeze just play the sequel.

I disagree partially here. Mostly because I feel playing HL1 more fills in the blanks about HL2, but you could play HL2 on its own as some of the backstory is revealed, although I do agree that especially towards the beginning of HL2, you would be a bit lost if you've not played HL1Cargando said:
