The enemy AI is completely broken, which is very apparent in open areas where they can stand completely still while you shoot their brains out, and when they try and chase you through labyrinth areas, where everyone seems to forget about you. The military squad feature is glitched to hell, as there were several times when I was shot and killed by them because I was "in the way", and they mostly get killed within 30 seconds of real combat. Most of the security guards are fat, because security guards, amirite lolxd? The new monsters go unexplained why Gordon never encounters them. There are way too many new weapons, which makes the gunplay unfocused, and the barnacle grappling gun is not only very poorly implemented (it is only used about 7 times in the entire game), but is a stupid idea in itself. Weird, confusing plot, until someone explains it I think it breaks canon. That it was made by a third party company rather than Valve bleeds right through.
