Oh, and if you really want to make a political stand, here's an idea: instead of fighting stupid technical issues about what falls under the various MPEG patents with things that may or may not be infringing (WebM), fight the patent system itself.

I've always had video game ADD, especially after I beat a game, it's usually impossible for me to touch it again.
HL2 is an excellent game, so it may just be the game, but I regularly return to make a stab at the remaining achievements. I agree that the concept has been around, but the modern, fleshed out version is new and certainly some definition of "revolutionary".
