Excellent game to pick and start playing.  Half Life 2 is one of the greatest games I've played.  I enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Go play the first game (and the expansions) before 2.

I enjoyed Half-Life 1 much more than 2. Where 2 slingshots you all over the damn place, 1 instills that feeling of, "oh shit I'm trapped in a giant research facility where there be monsters." In both games there is constant forward motion, but it works so much better in 1, as you climb out of Black Mesa and find, oh shit, that the army has arrived to fuck you up and, oh hell, you have to go BACK IN to Black Mesa. Genius gameplay, oh I love it, might have to reinstall.
