I was kind of expecting that they rushed the story, or that they simply didn't care about it. I won't be able to play for the next 2-3 months, so it should be a lot cheaper then and I might not regret buying it. Only downside is that I want to play Counter-Strike now!!!
PC Gamer gave it a 98%, which I think is the highest score ever given out to a game. I'm not sure what HL1 got but it was damn close, if not the same.

I would not trust IGN or Gamespot to review a game to save my life though... The fact that they were able to sum it all up into Story / AI shows that they did a fairly quick review.




As for the CS: Source talk. CS Source does not look as good as HL2. It's just CS with some higher res texures and a new engine. Expect much more from HL2.
