    The best OJ you'll have all day

        First let me start out by saying if you don't have this game yet go and buy it now. I'll give you a minute to get it now...............................
        Now that you have the game you can realize it's incredible value, delivery of quality, a multi player experience equal to the greats ( halo and gears), a inviting and impossible to let go single player game. Judging that you own a 360 you may not have played half life 2 yet and you surly will be pleased with it's transition to the console. This game is worth every penny even if you have played the previous half life.
        The only thing negative thing i could say about this game has nothing to do with the game but with valve. Now i normally have nothing but praises for them but this time they dropped the ball. There have been a number of updates for players online( new weapons and maps). Valve has said hat they are binging these updates to the 360 and ps3 but i could cost and there is no inclusion of user created maps.
        I highly recommend this game to anyone who has never enjoyed this game and even if you have played the previously released half life games. It is a truly magnificent game and the best value you will find on shelves as of now and probably for a while yet.
