Half-Life 2 Achievements
Tuesday, October 9th 2007 · Games
Okay, we've known for a while from the beta that Team Fortress 2 has achievements. And while I've gotten a few of those, I don't care too much about them. But when I find out that my absolute favorite game is also going to have achievements, I get excited.
Unless I'm mistaken, these achievements are coming to Steam as well as XBox 360. There are dozens, but here are some of my favorites.
- Bone Breaker
- Kill 30 enemies with thrown physics objects..
- Hack Attack!
- Kill five enemies with a Manhack..
- OSHA Violation
- Kill 3 enemies using the crane..
- Zombie-que
- Use flares to light 15 zombies on fire..
- Flushed
- Kill an enemy with a toilet..
- What cat?
- Break the mini-teleporter in Kleiner's lab..
- Two Points
- Use DOG's ball to make a basket in Eli's scrapyard..
- Zombie Chopper
- Play through Ravenholm using only the Gravity Gun..
- Hot PotatOwned
- Kill a Combine soldier with his own grenade..
While those are all very cool, (OSHA Violation cracks me up!) there are also some really hard ones...
- Conservationist
- Kill five enemies with the same energy ball..
- The One Free Bullet
- Beat Episode One firing exactly one bullet. Grenade, crowbar, rocket, and Gravgun kills are okay!
Between Half-Life 2, the two episodes, Portal, and Team Fortress 2, there are also 10 secret achievements. If these do indeed come to Steam, I'll be replaying Half-Life 2 for the third time.
I finished Chapter 1 in Portal... it was a piece of cake. So far, long-jumping using more than two portals was the toughest thing to get used to.
