Yeah, that was a crappy way to word it. Rather, people wouldn't still have been talking about it like 5 years after it was released. The deathmatch it came with wasn't that great, HL's lifetime beyond single player was due solely to mods.
I didn't even think the single player was GotY worthy unless that happened to be a down year for video games but I'm obv in the minority on that one.

Yeah, you are. Obviously looking at the story and gameplay today it doesn't seem worthy, but at the time it was a huge step forward in fps gameplay. I remember finishing the single player right after it came out and being totally blown away.
All depends on when you played it imo.
