 Big Fan of Halflife series. March 21, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've already played HL1 and all components. Loved them all. As far as Half Life 2 and Episode one, Already played HL2 now on Episode 1. As far as Amazon and there pricing and shipping, No problems. Now this is where the probems come in. VALVE software, the proponents of the HF2 series want you to buy a disk and then not be able to install and play there game but instead require you to download the game from them. After installing there propriatory software to do this.Episode 1 on 756 download took me 12 days. I think after that my HL2 experience will end. No Episode 2 for me. Unless it's installable from the disk that I pay my hard earned money for.

This expansion rules/rocks. Ya know? something? to many people whine, and complain, about how it's the same thing from HalfLife 2 ...sigh!! people get a life! its not a sequel!! its an expansion to HalfLife 2!!, and not a sequel to HalfLife 2...the game gets a 10 in my book. And this is comming from a gamer who knows the difference from a sequel and an expansion pack. Good Day!

Registry code will only work with one Steam account. Don't expect a used copy to work on a stranger's computer.
Exactly what I expected February 26, 2007

Beat it in 4 hours, but that's what I expected. $20 is a third of what you would normally pay for a new game, so in return I got a third of a game. It makes sense. It's better than waiting a few more years (probably around 2010-2011) for all three episodes to come out at once. Other than that, what can I say that hasn't already been said? The graphics are pretty much the same, however better lighting effects thanks to new HDR (seen in the "Lost Coast" demo) and you definitely notice it.
The only reason I'm giving it a 4 star on fun is because there are a few levels set in complete darkness. Your flashlight is the only source of light, and it feels a lot like Doom 3. I'm not saying it was poorly done, heck it was very well done... because it scared the bagezes outta me! I'm just not a fan of fighting in the dark (of course I don't think Gordon is either). Bravo to Valve because it did just what they wanted!
It's been said that every episode will focus game play on one new feature. In E1 it's the accompaniment of Alyx. She is pretty much by your side for the majority of the game. A few times you will have to separate to complete tasks, but soon reunited. In no way did her presence ever get in my way or cause me to die, so the people complaining about the AI are just bad at playing video games. She actually helps a lot by providing cover fire. This game is a wonderful addition to the HL experience. If you're a fan of HL, I don't see how you could not pick this game up.
