HL2- Overrated?

Are you stuffting me? Even if Deus Ex didn't have physics puzzles, it made you think in the sense "How am I going to attack this problem? I have a variety of different routes I could take with pros and cons to each, which one am I going to use?"
It's way better than the HL2 approach of "Get from point A to clearly marked point B. There is an obstacle between those two points, find a way around it."

Never played Deus Ex! Ah, please buy it right now. It's literally a gaming masterpiece.
Also, with GTA:SA I know they're not in the same genre (although, TPS is like FPS's cousin), you can still say "I liked this game more than that game." There are racing games I liked more than HL2.

in gta sa
they opened the doors so god damn roughly, which is a peeve of mine.
also, running over an 80 lb old lady with a 3 ton vehicle going 200 mph makes you stop immediately

I forgot what level, but you were storming some massive building in City 17 and you had to fight striders and stuff, I love playing that level in G-mod and spawning random Combine and stuff to fight each other. I love modifying the levels of HL2 on G-mod to have flame traps and crushers like that.
But anyway, HL2 was great and I loved it first time around but i'm not the kind that replays one track games over and over. It was fun while it lasted.
