Video Game Reviews of Half-Life: Game of the Year Edition
Customer Review: Team Fortress Classic! If you're into Paintball this is for you
Summary: 5 Stars
10 years ago I was big in this game playing Team Fortress Classic. Its a server you play online with others. Red team vs Blue team and you play to capture the flag. Great strategy! Theres a variety of characters and each team needs just the right amount depending on your opponents team you may need to adjust yours and have somebody be a different class to help defend the fortress / capture the flag. Classes are: Scout - Heavy Demolition Man - Sniper - Soldier - Spy - Engineer - Pyro - Medic, etc. A lot of fun playing any of these characters and each have their own attributes. While playing Team Fortress Classic you can play just to have fun as a "noob" or get more involved with the game and play as if you were in the military! Have a headset so you can chat with your team members to talk strategy while defending the fortress. Communication is a must when it comes to military style games so if you knock down the opposing teams sentry guns (or snipers, or cleared their base of whatever whatever), its good to let your other team members know so they can advance forward (put more on offense than defense).
I purchased Half-Life 2 Game of the Year Edition and saw there was no Team Fortress Classic so I had to purchase the original Half-Life I highly recommend you play TF online. A typical round lasts 10 minutes and after those 10 minutes you get to see everybodys score whether its kills (1 point), or capturing the flag (10 points). Its good fun running into an opponent then backing away cause its a stale mate then throwing a grenade at a corner having it bounce off the wall and detonating, he sees that and runs out in your line of sight where theres a friendly sentry gun (Engineer builds these) right behind ya he runs into. Engineers are extremely good as they have an EMP grenade (others dont), they build teleports, sentry guns, and ammo stations while all the other classes are based more on speed, health, and their weapon damage.
But my fun is being a sniper! One shot they're done and whats better than seeing one of your team members up against a Heavy Weapons guy, you snipe the HW guy and your team member is like oh thank you snipers!
Play Team Fortress Classic and get involved. If you're into Paintball this is for you.
Description of Half-Life: Game of the Year Edition
The critics agree. Half-Life is easily the most gripping, frightening and intense game experience ever. Awarded Game of the Year by more than 40 publications, Half-Life has been called a "Masterpiece of epic proportions."" The Half-Life Game of the Year Edition includes new multiplayer models and maps as well as Team Fortress Classic, the hugely popular team-based multiplayer game that runs on top of the Half-Life engine. Featuring an integrated storyline with stunning visual effects and a hugYour gun had better be loaded if you're playing Half-Life: Game of the Year Edition, the smartest, shootingest, bloodiest game ever to hit the PC. Take control of a scientist charged with destroying the alien invasion force that arrived, courtesy of government experiments gone wrong. Of course, in the post-X-Files world, there's additional bad guys in the form of federal "cleaners" who want you just as dead as the monsters.
Power up your environmental suit and plunge through level after level of increasingly difficult and creepy challenges, rescuing your fellow scientists and ultimately clearing out the whole complex--if you're lucky. Game play is smooth and simple, after the obligatory false starts and botched maneuvers common to learning every new game. Persistence pays off, though: Half-Life rewards tenacity with increasing power and understanding of the virtual world.
Play on a network and cooperate or compete with folks across the world or in the next cubicle. For those who've mastered the intricacies of Half-Life , the Game of the Year Edition includes Worldcraft 2.0, which the designers used to build every detail of the base. Make your own levels and snicker at other players' pathetic attempts to evade your deathtraps. It's easy to see why Half-Life won Game of the Year from dozens of publications; try it and see for yourself--if you're not too squeamish. --Rob Lightner
Half-Life: Game of the Year Edition features the award-winning dynamic and plot-driven action game filled with intelligent aliens on the hunt.
