Good

Fun but...

This game has a lot of interaction, meaning it is a game that you have to use your brain to figure things out. This makes it an interesting ride. However, the graphics are nothing special, akin to PS2. While the game is fun, it does not take advantage of the capabilities of the PS3. Another annoyance is the constant loading, which a hard drive is suppose to prevent.

Fun to play on big screen - but choppy

This is the second time playing through half-life for me. While I enjoy playing it on my television rather than my computer monitor the performance is terrible. There are some literally unplayable sections because of framerate.

The online multiplayer - Team Fortress - was unplayable due to server lag. I hope they fix this because it seems like a cool game.

Portal - is awesome and worth the rent alone.

Don't buy this game. It sucks the controls don't feel smooth and the games in it stinks. Portal is the only good game. Which is why I gave it a 3.
