Have you _played_ them, though? Or do they exist in your library just
to bolster The Number?

Although it's forgivable if you haven't played "Half Life" at all.
With so many other, more modern titles to choose from, it's easy just
to pick one of those and just skip that silly game the old timers keep
harping on about. A lot of what made "Half Life" so memorable --so
revolutionary-- is taken for granted today. It's just what we expect
from a modern FPS, which took the "Half Life" formula and gave it two
decades of polish.

So going back and playing "Half Life" today it's hard to see what the
fuss is about; it seems a rather ordinary shooter with decades old
graphics. As I've maintained, I still think it's a terrific shooter
-it has (mostly) excellent pacing, good level design, and satisfying
AI. But it doesn't stand out against stuff like "Dead Space" or "Call
of Duty CMXXVI" or "Horizon Zero Dawn". It's merely good-not-great,
with the further downside of being butt-ugly. You have to put in
effort to appreciate it ... but it's worth it.*

I did play both, but I got stuck in HL1 because my version was bugged
and water had no transparency which made part of it impossible, and
HL2 I think I stopped around the Nova Prospekt intro because I couldn't
figure out how to take down the gunships.
