As I was reading my PCGamer, I came up to an article concerning Half-Life 2. Aparently, Valve has decided to extend Aftermath into several expansion packs; thus, they renamed the next release Half-Life 2: Episode 1.

What are your thought on this subject.

I, personally, thought that they could've come up with something more unique rather than the Generic "episode" sub-title.



You know, I've actually got nothing to say

Seen that news some time ago on some site, yeah.

Oh well, whether it's called Episode or not, it sounds interesting. Not exactly the most imaginative title indeed but that's not a big concern to me.

As long as the gameplay is good, i don;t care about the title.

I want the damn thing to come out. Its been almost a year since their "expected release date". Other than that I have no concerns because DoD Source rocks hard and heavy in terms of level design/gameplay/and art.

I don't mind when they delay games. Yes, It pisses me off a little because I want to play the damn thing, but usually they delay the thing to make it better.

Rushed games are not a good thing. Take Battlefield 2 for example. SO many bugs still not fixed since release.

Whatever happened to HL3 :P

Quite frankly, as long as it isn't as buggy as crap, and causes weird crashes that take my entire computer down (unlike the rest of HL2) then I'll play it. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Indeed - by all means point out when something is old news Frenchy, but next time try doing it without being a rude bastard eh?

Hmmm. I dunno, I guess i really don't care what a game is named as long as it's a good game. Really, what does the word "quake" have to do with stroggs and spaceships? Kinda silly, but a great set of games, so: don't care.

Valve must have alot of time on their hands to have loads of 'episodes' to it, I thought they were already working on HL3 :/


Hahaha! Im using the INTERNET!

I can't wait for Episode 3 when it comes out in like... 2012. :P

But honestly, I think those Episodes will be great. Opposing Force was great but it lacked the extra "lightness" and originality of the Valve games. From what I heared each Episode will be rather short (6 hours or so) but it's packed with good ideas and very detailed maps.
