Sequals

Since the release of Half-Life 2, Valve has released an additional level and two additional expansion sequels. The level, Lost Coast, takes place between the chapters Highway 17 and Sandtraps and is primarily a showcase for high dynamic range imaging (HDR) technology.

The Lost Coast


The sequels Half-Life 2: Episode One and Half-Life 2: Episode Two take place shortly after the events of Half-Life 2, with the player once again taking on the role of Gordon Freeman and with Alyx Vance playing a more prominent role and expanding the mysteries surrounding the G-Man and the Vortigaunts. Additionally, one further episode is set to be released in the future, dubbed Episode Three; being the last expansion, "in a trilogy".

  8. Episode 3 is the main reason why I hate Valve these days. Episode 2 came out 3 1/2 years ago now, and each episode barely reaches 6 hours in length. It cannot take 3 years to create a 4-6 hour long game to finish up a story. I suppose Valve would rather make new hats than actually bother finishing one of the games that helped make them as popular as they are.

  14. I tried playing Half life but the game glitched out, so I never was able to really start playing it. I tried playing 2, but I never really got into it since I felt guilty for not completing 1; that and I recall HL2 giving me motion sickness :/ At least I have Battlefield to keep me warm at night.
