Half-Life 2 was created by Valve in 2004 and still holds up, ten years later. You play as Gordon Freeman, a scientist with a shotgun and a gravity gun! The graphics aren't fantastic by today's standards but you can imagine how great they would have been upon the 2004 release. You get control of a diverse range of weapons and vehicles, facing countless different enemies, from zombies to trigger happy law enforcers. Set in a dystopian world, the game has huge variation in level design and crushing combine soldeirs with a huge metal crate lifted by a magnetised crane never gets old. One of the best things however, is the awesome physics engine this game has to offer. You can use your gravity gun to move objects around you, often rewarding you with the satisfaction of firing a metal disc to take a zombie's head off. This game can be found on the steam store for cheap and will be well worth your money. I say bring on Half-Life 3!
