what is the best valve game of ALL TIME?

[The S.hitpost King]

i whould like some scores on some stuff like..
graphics (according to time when game was released)
and playabilty

[Mango]

Maybe Portal 2 or Team Fortress 2
9/10 for graphics on both of them.
They both have pretty good playability.

I'll cast my vote for Half-Life.

Sure, it doesn't look too great nowadays, but the graphics were just about par for its day. The NPC interactions and storytelling was what really elevated HL above its contemporaries. Its modability gave rise to Counter-Strike and dozens of other games. Not just mods - actual games that were sold at retail. Take a second and try to find a complete list of how many awards Half-Life has won. It's a long list. And it sold an average of one million units per year for at least five years after its release, not even counting digital sales or other platforms.

I'm personally most fond of Half-Life and Half-Life 2 but in terms of actual design, Portal is their best game; it's just perfectly executed in every area (gameplay, aesthetics, narrative, etc.).

[Absolute Zero]

All of them. They all have great gameplay, great story (P1&2 & HL1&2), great narrative (P2) and great characters (TF2).

[Seraphita]

Portal/Portal 2 are definitely the best ones of valve hands down. Half-life are good but they will never have the greatness of Portal.

HL2 Episode 2

Either Portal or TF2.Come on guys don't compare, they're two very different games.
I like to think they're equal.
As for Half Life 2,it's good but i prefer TF2 and Portal over it.

[The Bear Jew]

HL2: Episode 2

[FakeTaxiXXX]

i reckon TF2 or portal 2 easily

[GTA5Player [Perker]]

Well i did play only 4 games they made but i say TF2

Ricochet. It's not just the best game produced by Valve, it's the best game ever.

Half Life 2: When i got it i played it on every difficulty starting from hard and it was awsome. Greate story and atmosphere, cant realy think of any bad about this game.

Dota 2: Had played wc3 dota 1 for many years before i moved to dota 2, so i had prey good knowledge of the game. For multiplayer game this is the best i have played and by far the most played game i have ever played. (if including dota 1) The beginning is hard but when you learn the basics and success its AWSOME. Every game of this is different.

Half Life 1 with Opposing Force... just brilliance.

[Noob Tactics]

I may be new in this whole steam thing but my game opinion is half-life series have the best story, counter strike has the best team objectives, team fortress has the best mayhem, portal has the best puzzles and that's all i can think of
