People seem to be confusing the first Half-Life with all of the multi-player additions that were released for it afterwards. The first Half-Life was about its single-player experience. The mods and expansions (Counter-Strike, Team Fortress, Death Match, etc.) are not the original game. Saying that Half-Life 2 is going to have an excellent multi-player mode is not a good comparision because the first Half-Life never had a multi-player mode.
Doom 3 does have a multi-player mode, even though I'm not very impressed with some of the previews so far. IGN says it's pretty damn slow, even though the graphics are excellent. Once those mods and expansions start coming out for HL2, that's when the shit will hit the fan and players will rejoice.
