Is Half Life the toy story of video games?

>revitalized/basically reinvented the genre
>cult classic
>sequel was universally acclaimed
>top tier graphics then, pretty meh now

What do you think? What other movies can be compared to vidya?
>>
But Toy Story 2 was undoubtedly better than the first.

And 3 came out.

>But Toy Story 2 was undoubtedly better than the first.
Why do you think that?
>>
>cult classic
The game sold fucktons of copies and is loved by everyone. I don't think you know what a cult classic is.
>>
Half Life 2 is one of the best looking games out there. It's so pristine and clear, it's wonderful.
>>
>>336119681
It absolutely is, i consider it to be the closest we've come to the perfect game since pong.
>>
>>336119191
So, going by this pattern, when Half-Life 3 comes out, it'll make us all cry?

>>336119191
Toy story is good. Half life isn't

I'm not sure you know what that means, you retarded faggot.

only if it will become a steambox, vr required, always online exclusive.

Or if it will make bring along a DRM-free policy on Steam.

>>336119191
No. Because the third toy story was released.

Seriously though. I realize they made a shitzillion dollars with the last one, but they're going to undo the heartfelt ending of 3.

Fuck another Toy Story, we don't need it. When's Incredibles 2 coming out?

Huh, last I heard, it was about barbie and ken. Or was that something else entirely.

Also do you really expect the company that's making cars 3 to end on high notes?
I'm just praying they don't do anything to ruin The Incredibles 2

Is World of Warcraft the Dragon Ball Z of video games?

>spinoff of another series that most of its fans don't really care about

Is Assassin's Creed the Spongebob of video games?
>Three good entries

>>336123712
>Three good entries
there was a second and third spongebob movie? or are you talking about seasons?
>>
>>336123614
I sort of doubt most fans of DBZ know what Journey to the West is, and the series using the Japanese names for a lot of the characters certainly doesn't help, with Wukong not sounding very similar to Goku and most publications writing Shenron instead of Shenglong.
>>
>>336123858
The seasons, yes. There is a second spongebob movie now, though.
>>
>>336119241
I thought Toy Story 2 wasn't very well received. It's entirely possible I don't have any idea what I'm talking about, but that's how I remember it.

Reviewers found the film to be a sequel that managed to equal or even outshine the original. "Toy Story 2 does what few sequels ever do," The Hollywood Reporter proclaimed. "Instead of essentially remaking an earlier film and deeming it a sequel, the creative team, led by director John Lasseter, delves deeper into their characters while retaining the fun spirit of the original film".

Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes reported that 100% of critics gave the film a positive review based on 163 reviews, with an average score of 8.6/10. The film is No. 27 on Rotten Tomatoes' list of "Best Rated Films", and is the third best rated animated film. Rotten Tomatoes summarizes the critical consensus with "The rare sequel that arguably improves on its predecessor, Toy Story 2 uses inventive storytelling, gorgeous animation, and a talented cast to deliver another rich moviegoing experience for all ages." The film also holds an 88/100 on Metacritic, indicating "Universal acclaim". CinemaScore reported that audiences gave the film a rare "A+" grade.

Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film three-and-a-half stars out of four and said in his print review, "I forgot something about toys a long time ago, and Toy Story 2 reminded me". Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times said "Toy Story 2 may not have the most original title, but everything else about it is, well, mint in the box". Lisa Schwarzbaum of Entertainment Weekly said "It's a great, IQ-flattering entertainment both wonderful and wise".
