  Pre-Opinion I HATE PUZZLE GAMES. Games like Tetris and the like can get repetitive and lame fast. But love FPS games. Portal is a little bit like both. I got it for... less than 1.98$ (23% off.) A friend of mine had bought it for his switch and had enjoyed the games. I purchased Portal a few Steam sales later.   NOTE: All screenshots are from my playthrough. Plot The Plot for Portal is actually pretty straightforward. A psychotic robot named GlaDOS has trapped you inside the Aperture Science Labotories and puts you through rigorous tests with the promise of cake. But the lore is INSANE. Portal probably has the biggest lore base in gaming. (Unless its Halo.)  An early test chamber with some turrets. The lore claims Chell is a survivor of "Bring Your Daughter to Work Day." Where legendary villain GlaDOS gassed the entire complex with neurotoxin. This was shown in Portal 2 from some creepy graffiti and a line from Wheatly. Afterwards GlaDOS took all the survivors and made them

  Pre-Opinion Game's cover. When I first saw this game, I saw someone playing it on Xbox game pass. I though... "All you do is move. That looks like a very meh game." But when I saw a friend playing it on Steam Deck, I had a second thought. I was getting bored of Halo and already beat Half-Life, so I was looking for something to play. This was on game pass, so I gave it a shot. NOTE: Plot section is being left out. There isn't really any plot. Soundtrack Oh, the soundtrack.... it's really good. In its Steam trailer a reviewer says it's like popping bubble wrap to sick beats. This is pretty true. My favorite tracks are probably the Among Us ones. I really like the themes for the adventure levels and the early stages. I actually listened to the Among Us Polus Replica theme while writing this. The themes are all retro like going back to games like Castlevania (which influences this game A LOT.) But others are a bit more modern (Emergency Meeting) This soundtrack

  Today I am going to go over all 6 of the original Halo Novels: Fall of Reach, The Flood, First Strike, Ghosts of Onyx, Contact Harvest and The Cole Protocol. I will rank and rate each one and rate the full franchise. NOTICE: This post will include some minor spoilers. 6: The Flood by William C. Deitz. (No. 2 in the series) The Flood is good. I like it as a Halo CE fan. However, it's not as good as the other ones. The reason is while it gives us a huge insight on what everyone else on the Halo is doing while John 117 is doing his thing. But the problem is that when it is on the Master Chief parts, he basically just kills things. there's no method to the madness. and the author quickly runs out of ways to say: "Master Chief kills the Unngoy." It's still pretty good but can't match up to the rest of the novels. Score: 84%  🌠 5: Contact Harvest by Joseph Staten.  (No. 0 in the series) This is a pretty good prequel novel for the series. It's also the first

  I am a huge gamer. one thing I like almost as much as gaming is reading a good Sci-fi novel. and as proved by the HALO series: video games make AMAZING BOOKS! this is my list of Video games that deserve and/or need Novels! I will also touch on where or why they would make the novel. SPOILER ALERT. I will spoil some stuff. Novel List: This image was generated by Bing copilot. all other images are the same. H𝝺LF-LIFE Half Life is 100% My favorite video game. (I finally beat it about a week ago!) And it also has an extensive story. HL has a story in the first game that really could be novelized a la The Flood by William C Deitz. The stories scope largens significantly in HL2'S city 17. Half Life has a lot of great supporting characters too! Where could the novel end up in the timeline? During the Black Mesa incident? Before it? Connecting HL1 and HL2? What would it be? I would like a novel starring my favorite sub-Character: Adrian Shepard! They could do a novel about HL1 with view

WARNING: This review has screenshots of blood and gore from a M rated video game.   Pre-Opinion PC Cover art. I had just gotten into a big shooter kick. Never had really played any before! Besides Fortnite. (which kind of stinks) But I was playing DOOM, Quake 2 and HALO: COMBAT EVOLVED/ 2. I enjoyed Portal and thought: "Hmmm. Half-Life... Portal was good so... yes. next Steam sale." (IT IS 99 CENTS.) I never got it... until the 25th anniversary. it was free! since then, it became my most played game of 2023 with over 10 hours put into it! Plot   (All screenshots are from my playthrough!) The story begins with scientist Gordon Freeman arriving late to the Black Mesa Research Facility.  He gets into his H.E.V. Suit and heads to the test chamber where all heck breaks loose. The experiment that Gordon was working on backfires and brings all manner of ALIENS to Black Mesa.  The survivors of the incident urge Gordon to make his way to the surface. Gordon has to fight his way there
