I sold Half Life 2 for minesweeper

Gameplay over graphics I always say. Nothing beats the sheer tension, the thought, the drama, the EXCITEMENT, pure excitement....

I have to say in both the storyline is lacking though.

How can you "sell" Half-Life 2 to someone? Valve took away your right.

(its a joke)

What the hell are you talking about? Until HL2 all that was being released were gameplayless Quake 3 and its mods. Oh, I get it, you are baiting me because you know that I like HL2. Hehehe.

I'm surprised you're not wearing a "I beat HL2 and all I got was this lousy ending" tee. I guess you could adapt it though, to "I beat minesweeper and all I got was some smiley face."
Hey, Blue? I'm loving the things you do. From the very first time, the fight you fight for will always be mine.

I beat packman and all I got was a never ending loop :-/

If you play games for their endings, go play a console game and leave us internet gamers with our holy grail.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

** Nesseight chokes on his own tounge at the exact moment tony posts. **

HL2's story was decent compared to some games, not to mention the ability to make your own maps or download those made by others. I'm more ticked off about there not being a VAC2.

Actually, my post was a common gripe about the endgame. I liked it, even if many people didn't. And PC > consoles, but it doesn't mean I can't like some good SP. And I map. And I play online.

Yes! The only reason I would rent a console is to play the new Zelda or something (which I haven't done since OoT).

I am rather fond of PC games that can be mapped.

1) Pacman's levels end at 256.

2) You're taking his post way too seriously.

3) Stop being a fanboy.

I must agree though, Dagger. The excitement that you feel in minesweeper is amazing. Such pressure!

The craziest thing I ever saw was this website about using minesweeper to create cellular autonoma... there were minesweeper transistors, logic gates, etc...

That's pretty crazy, just goes to show the true power of minesweeper.

Holy crap! I don't have mine sweeper on my PC! I wonder how that happened.

Hmm? I believe one would have to intentionally remove it!
