Only played HL, HL2 and the Portals from those.

HL gets a 4/5 for being my favourite FPS (a genre I don’t really enjoy) but including Xen for some baffling reason.

Never completed HL2 because it’s so looong and there seem to be long unnecessary vehicle sections to show off how bad Valve’s driving physics were. I just wanted to mess around in City 17, not spend hours driving out of town. 3/5

Portal - perfect. Could not be improved. 5/5

Portal 2 - A welcome retread. Doesn’t quite reach the heights of the original and as Ducky says is a little longer than it needed to be, but still a solid 5/5

100%

Tetris is a 5/5 and will be a 5/5 until the end of time

Portal 2 is a weird one. I’m not sure it needed the wackiness of Stephen Merchant and JK Simmons characters in it (there’s already enough comic relief from Glados and it detracts from the tone of the game a little) but I still find myself laughing at most of the script.

Portal would be the best game I’ve played in 2019 if I hadn’t replayed Mass Effect

I think I once played half life 2 online and me and my friend fired bins at each other with the gravity gun. That wasn’t a dream was it?

I’m in a lot of agreement with a lot of this sentiment. Tetris and Portal are both absolutely classics. As close to perfection as it’s possible to get.

does portal 2 have some half life 2 references that made it seems like things were connected? my memory is rubbish

If you find a hidden area you can see a lifering from the big ship from the end of HL2E2

I’d be tempted to cut the whole Cave Johnson act from the game - I think Wheatley brings value as your collaborator - but I can see why that whole section is there from a ‘lore’ perspective. It gives greater weight to Aperture and it’s history.

I know the Cake cong is more memorable but I always enjoy listening to this one more. Mainly because it makes me feel bad for Glados

This poll is a lie

If the poll is a lie, then I don’t want to know the truth.

@Yesiamaduck

You okay if I reformat the table in your OP into an actual table?

Yup by all means

I’d say the opposite tbh - Cave Johnson is a fantastic comic creation, whereas whatever Wheatley’s character’s name is just grates on me.
