According to ESRB, this game contains: Blood and Gore, Violence
Parents should note that Half-Life has received a Mature rating from the ESRB. The game is violent, gory, blood-filled, and a little scary at times. Gordon spends the majority of the game killing aliens, watching his coworkers be devoured, and taking out government forces with a variety of high powered weaponry. This isnt a game for the kids.
First Person Shooter fans will no doubt enjoy Half-Life. This is one of the revolutionary games in the genre, and is well worth playing for anyone who enjoys these kinds of games.
PC gamers will almost assuredly prefer the original version for the computer, particularly since it has more options for gameplay and a nicer control interface with the mouse and keyboard.
Console gamers who dont get to play a lot of PC games will certainly want to take the PlayStation 2 version for a spinits not quite as good as the PC experience, but it is satisfying nonetheless.
Deaf and Hard of Hearing gamers should approach with caution—the game doesn't have subtitles.
