Nothing short of perfection describes this game.

This game sets the bar to what all other first person shooters should have been, should be and maybe one day will be. This game single handedly set a bar, a line to which all other first person games and possibly all games in general should strive to be. It makes you think, it makes you work for it and in the end you sit back and wonder why nothing else seems to compare to how great this game truly is, even compared to modern day games like Halo 1-2-3. Valve outdid itself with this, and it is possible that this game may possible be the best game, or at leas the best first person shooter of all time... and it deserves every award it had ever been given.

Nothing short of perfection describes this game. The mod scene created by it birthed games such as Counter Strike and Team Fortress 1 and 2, which still stand to this day as some of the best shooters of all time.

Its the father of modern shooters, and deserves that respect.
