The UK version of PC Gamer has reviewed HL2
First here is a scan from the mag of the score: http://img31.exs.cx/img31/3428/Image526.jpg
Here is a quote from the review:
"It was all in that moment when I laughed. I couldnât believe it was quite this good. I chuckled in muddled disbelief. My nervous fingers reloaded the level, knowing that I had to see that breathtaking sequence one more time. It was then I knew for certain: Valve had surpassed not only themselves, but everyone else too. Half-Life 2 is an astounding accomplishment. It is the definitive statement of the last five years of first-person shooters. Everything else was just a stopgap. Half-Life 2 is a near perfect sequel.â
I'll keep digging for more. I'm sure someone will scan the whole thing and it will be posted somewhere.
