First Impressions Review Diary 3-Jul-2021

__Hello again. And if you're in the USA, happy Independence Day weekend.🙂
__I'm also happy to report that I got my second shot yesterday.😀 I posted my last entry on this blog the day after I got the first one, so see that one for the story of how unexpected it was.🙂 Now I just need to self-isolate for another week, and I should be fine. Obviously, that doesn't mean I should stop being cautious, though.
__Now, for the last few months, I've been spending my days playing video games and my evenings watching TV shows, most recently Half-Life and Dexter respectively. However, because I finished both at almost exactly the same time, I decided to take a break and start on another set of movies, so that's what I'll be commenting on this time.
__But, because I played Half-Life before starting the batch of movies, it seems appropriate to throw in its mini review first. I said in my last post that it would be the first game I commented on this month; I didn't think it would turn out to be the only one.😀

I'm usually not a fan of first-person shooters, but this is one major exception.🙂 The fun gameplay is backed up by its creative setting and alien enemies, and a wide array of memorable scenarios. It's easy to see why it was so influential.
My rating: 95%.
