I would agree, except for Portal. The Half-Lifes, while incredible games in their own right and at the time of their release, did get pretty boring after the first couple of hours. I remember playing the first hour of the game and thinking it was going to be something really special, but as I kept going I began to feel as though everything after the beginning was one constant let down. Eventually I quit and just played Counter Strike, which was much more satisfying.

Also, Team Fortress Two is a game for people who exist in a dimension of time which is exactly twice as fast as our own. No person existing in space-time as we know it can comprehend what is going on in that game at any given time. It is an excellent non-stop die/respawn simulator, but beyond that I have never experienced anything that could actually contribute to the notion that it was in any way a "game."

Portal, well, anyone who doesn't enjoy Portal is a communist. And not the good kind of communists, yeah know, the ones with naive ideals who remind you of hippies, but the bad kind, the ones that live in Siberia and who like to build walls in Germany.

If you have played it on the PC, it's a completely different experience. I remember hating the little I played of it on the 360, but I've logged something like 150 hours on the PC version. It really is an incredibly fun class-based game that requires a lot of teamwork and strategy. Combine that with the fact that Valve seems ready to release new maps and updates for years to come and you have one hell of a multiplayer game.

I have only played it on PC, although play may be too strong a word. I attempted to experience the game on the PC, but as far as I can tell I was largely unsuccessful.
