Have to go with the original... Just simply because I can't do it in under 2 hours, and I can do HL2 in about 45min. (not including any cutscenes)

ORLY?

So you are saying you can do almost the same thing a bunch of pros did in 88 segments on a single run? Dream on

I wasn't aware Half-Life 2 actually had any cutscenes.

Feel free to PM me about almost anything and I'll do my best to answer. :)

I had to go for HL2, gone through it more times, theres Alyx and the Gravity Gun, and there are actual characters besides G-Man.

Character interaction sequences aren't cutscenes, cutscenes are like watching a short film without any player interaction.

Of course I can't do those. If I could, I'd have my own vid on there... However, if you take out the scenes where there is nothing to do, load times, and the few cutscenes, I can do it with a total of 45-50 min playtime.

Don't insult me. I have trained professionals to do that.

actually they cut load times;the few scenes where there is nothing to do (like black mesa east,kleiner lab,dr.breen lame threats,etc)they speed them up by glitching the NPCs and making they teleport,all this scenes together wouldnt consume more than half an hour so you still would have to beat the whole game in 1h and 20 minutes .(That would demand insane BH skills and deep knowledge about Source glitchs)

BTW the fastest speedrun for HL1 is 29 minutes.

I don't use glitches, and as far as I can tell, bunny hopping slows you down now.

Not sure about BH nowadays,i will check it later,but anyway , if you have any hope of beating HL2 in 50 minutes without glitches and a working BH then i got to ask:Have you ever played HL2? Now, lets stop with this before it turns into a flamewar?if you want a flamewar,make it inside your own topic,dont ruin Alyxx topic

Wow, HL1 has 8 while HL2 has 16.

 

Meaning HL2 has double the amount of votes.

 

Im wondering if there would be episodes in the poll too.

I mean, which episode do you prefer.

I guess most people just like it because it is well, newer.

I am feeling that overall EP2 would win that poll because it drives the story forward. And EP1 well didn't.

If it were just the episodes, obviously Episode 2 would win. Touching ending, some epic fights, and its larger than Episode 1.
