In just 5 Hours, 20 Minutes, and 15 Seconds, Half-Life 2: Episode 1 will be unlocked

Who's excited? I sure am. I want to know what happens next!

I'm pretty amped about this! I must say I didn't care for the ending of Half Life 2 overly much so it would be particularily satisfying to play though more of a conclusion to the matter. I looks like we might find out a little more about the crafty G-Man too.

Bummer that I gave my cousin's Half Life 2 game back to him. Maybe I can borrow it again for a bit (say, 4 months)...


Time to hold aloft that crowbar again.

Well I just hope this doesn't disappoint, ive been waiting for so long. I don't have $20 right now so I won't be able to get it right when it comes out.

I've been debating for the last day or so about whether I should get it. I'll probably wait a bit but let us know how it turns out.

I know my brothers will be probably purchasing this right when it comes out, I still haven't played half-life at all yet. I really want to, though.

Can someone explain this game? Wouldn't this be Episode 2 if Half Life 2 was already released?

so this is the continuation from the end of Half-Life 2? sweet, oh man i'm gonna have to finish the last chunk to refresh my memory. i sen the ending when a friend was doing it at a lan party, so i know what happens... this news seemed to have snuck up on me.. maybe i should pay more attention to my steam client occasionally.

Half-Life 1's release date was 1998

Half-Life 2's Release date was November 16, 2004. 3 AM Eastern Time Zone (12 Mountain Time)

Half-Life 2's ending is more or less a cliffhanger. Half-Life 2 Episode 1 picks up from there.

I'll explain the story later Tom, right now I'm playing it XD

Hooollyyy crap. I just finished it.

It's quite a cliffhangery ending. I can't WAIT till episode 2 comes out.

Tom, here you got. Read it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-Life
I LOVE half-life so much. It has the most intricate plot for a FPS I've ever laid my eyes upon.

You beat it... THAT fast? Is it really that short of a game?

"six hours," is what Valve said; the same as the SiN episodes they're releasing. I think that's if you're completely clueless though.

They're episodes john. 20 dollars each. And there are three of them. The first one was released on June 1st 1PM Eastern Standard Time. The rest will be released later.

They said in an interview that instead of doing half-life 3 they were going to do it in an episode thingy. It sounds a little more original than half-life 3 to me.

Well, Half-Life 3 is a definate. It'll most likely appear in like... a bajillion years later though.

Actually they interview with a guy who works at valve studios says that they are doing the episode idea instead of half-life 3. So i'm thinking that after all three episodes the half-life series will be over, much to my shigrin.

Aw I made a thread about this already Ryan =(

The next one's coming out by the end of this year. I'm picking it up this weekend though, cant wait.
