Half-Life 2

My first quarter at RHIT is over. I have 3 finals tests next week and will be displaying a demo of the game my CS group has built. It is 4:oopm on Saturday and I've been reading about the development of Half-Life 2. I won't go into the details of what it is, other than it's the sequel to what is probably the greatest PC game ever made. Also, I don't know of any game development more cursed than HL2. Yet, even reading of all the horrors, I realize that that is what I want to be a part of. My thoughts go back to studying. I need to complete my education here before I can develop games. I will most certainly be buying HL2. The one review I've read basically said it is the best shooter ever made. There are no flaws, it is as near to perfect as a game can be. One can only hope.
