Well, if you're going to make a very, very unorthodox opinion, then you're going to get called out because this is more than just "I like this game better." You're voting for "I think this game is better in this contest than that game."
And nobody agrees HL2 is a borderline top 10 game, and there's really zero reason to think it is.
