It seems like only yesterday that I first played the fps that changed the face of the genre forever

/hyperbole

This came out when I was six.

It's a pretty good game, even if I did play it for the first time in 2012.

I played this when I didn't know what a GPU was. Well, I tried to play it.

So are some humans.

Not really hyperbole though!

Most FPS games since have bitten it's scripted presentation style and the way it presented atmosphere. Many games in general have. It was hugely influential. Among the most influential games of all time for sure.

I remember my first time playing this. I ended up staying up all night playing it, only stopping because I had to go to school. It was also the first shooter I played with reloading guns and IT BLEW MY MIND!

yup and 5 years ago steam sold it for $0.98 cents, the end

You know, the AI in that game was 15 years ahead of its time given how little it has improved since then.

This is depressing.

I thought the AI in HL2 was shit.

Just think. in another year, Half-Life will be able to drive without supervision.
