Well Half-Life 2 is one my favorite games of all time, but it definitely has its own unique style of gameplay that not everyone will enjoy. Plus it does drag sometimes. If you don't like it though, then don't finish it. It's definitely not a game for everyone.
I like the co-op experience, but honestly the story never gripped me, the singleplayer was way too short in Halo 2 and 3, the characters were never very interesting (I liked Master Chief and Cortona in the first one), and it seems like it tries to be violent but fails and the enemies and such never made me laugh and how childish looking they were. I don't play much multiplayer in games so Halo's mp never did anything for me. That's my view and it is a quality game franchise, but that's my opinion and the game just never fit well with me. Also I am a pc gamer so I've enjoyed mind-blowlingly awesome shooters for a long time, so Halo did not mean as much to me when I played it.
