There's nothing like chucking cars at zombies.

And as far as the "feel" of the game... (except for RavenHohm which is scary as hell) I can't get the feeling that I'm walking around in an alien invasion version of 1984 out of my head. Big Brother on the TVs. The proles holed up in their apartments trying to stay out from under the foot of the Overwatch. The constant feeling that there are higher-ups controlling your actions. Fear of the unknown around every corner.

HL2 is easily as good as the original was in '98. And IMO it's *the best* FPS in the history of video games. I think I'll end up beating it tonight. Then I'm cranking up the difficulty and looking for codes for all weapons and unlimited ammo and seeing if I can't just blaze through the game a second time.
