highly rated first person shoot `em-up ever on the
PC. There's no five year wait for a sequel this
time, however, as the war against the Combine
continues.The lowdown:Originally intended as a
standard expansion pack entitled Aftermath, this
is the first in a new series of episodic content
for Half-Life 2, to be released far more
frequently than normal expansions and which do not
require the original game to play. This chapter
focuses as much on the beautiful Alyx Vance and
her robot bodyguard "Dog" as Gordon, and deals
with the direct aftermath of the end of Half-Life
2, and the exodus from City 17. Graphically the
game uses an enhanced version of the original
graphic engine -- beefed up using the new high
dynamic range (HDR) lighting technology from the
Lost Coast technical demo. There are also two
multiplayer games include in the package: one
based on Half-Life 2 and the other on an enhanced
version of the original Half-Life.Most exciting
moment:Watching Alyx's pet Dog throwing cars and
soldiers around like toys as they battle alongside
you in one of the most graphically impressive
environments ever seen in a PC game.Since you
ask:Valve has already confirmed an Episode Two
expansion for Half-Life 2, as well as similar
episodic games for a sequel to 1998's SiN using
the same graphics technology.The bottom line:The
best FPS ever is back and looking and playing
better than ever.Harrison Dent

Review of Half Life 2: Episode 2 (PC) by C-J-C

Advantages: Great graphics, great story, great puzzles
Disadvantages: a little short, not enough new weapons and monsters

I've been playing half life right back to the days of the original, and have brought and played through all the different varients of it. I'm not the greatest fan of First Person Shooters, but I've always enjoyed the Half-Life series. I think it's the great story, the overall intelligance, and that for once you're not playing a guns and muscle soldier, but a geeky scientist with glasses. Now, I'm not going to say that describes me, I don't think ...
...up all the traditions. Half Life 2: Episode 2 is the second part of the Episodic Sequal to Half-Life 2. At the end of Episode 1, we left Gordon Freeman (the geeky scientist) and Alyx Vance having escaped City 17 by train, only for the train to crash right at the end. Episode 2 picks up just after this, and you're first job is to get yourself out of the tangled wreckage. From then, your main task is to make your way to a Missile site where Dr. Kliener ...

Look inside The Orange Box...
Review of Half-Life 2: Orange Box (Xbox 360) by  smb360

Advantages: Astounding value for money, Half-Life 2 is superb, diverse first person gameplay
Disadvantages: Half-Life 2's graphics *slightly* dated, Team Fortress 2 - some lag from time to time

...Look inside The Orange Box... The Orange Box is a rather ambiguous title for a game, giving very little clue as to the game's contents. If you have not heard of this game before, you might be surprised to find that it does not, to my knowledge, feature any actual orange boxes. What it does feature is an abundance of diverse quality content, spread over what is advertised as being five separate games for the normal retail price of a standard game. In fact, it is more like three and a half games, but this is more than enough to justify labelling The Orange Box the best deal in video game history. The first game is Half-Life 2, released in 2004, and widely considered one of the greatest PC games of all time. The next two titles are the follow-up expansion episodes, numbers 1 and 2, which I would group together as being the second game... Read review
