www.gamecriticsawards.com: "When the doors to E3 are flung open, what do you want to see first? The E3 show is about celebrating the next big thing in the interactive entertainment industry; it's about being okay waiting in line to get a glimpse of a hot property. If ever a game lived up to that billing, it was Valve's Half-Life 2. As the sequel to one of the most lauded products in PC gaming history, expectations were through the roof. The demonstration didn't disappoint.
Between the demo shown in a darkened theater, and the fully playable code witnessed by the Game Critics Awards judges and others, Half-Life 2 stood out as a marvel-in-the-making. The blend of incredibly realistic new technology and interactivity in the game world blows away the high bar set by the original game. Between the interaction with NPCs, vehicle driving, object manipulation and stunning cinematic action sequences, this was the product that appeared to encapsulate every detail of next-generation game design in one package. It's the game that gets gamers excited about their hobby, and as such is a hugely deserving recipient of the Game of Show award."
