First off, the main thing you notice when playing this game is it's length. In about three hours, its done and the only thing to do then is to wait for episode 2, but, of course, it's a trilogy so when it's all put together, it'll make one big game. The game is pretty dark and it still keeps the Half-Life blood pumping through its veins. It augments the atmosphere with excellent special effects and sound and some of the games aspects have been tweaked. The difficulty can be a bit mediocre, but can get difficult in dark rooms with zombies swarming from all sides. These games open a whole new portal for the series AND gamers alike. The G-Man doesn't play as much of a part as in previous games, in fact, he really just plays a cameo, but he would just get in the way of this exhilarating game. For 30 euro, its a bit steep for such short game, but at the same time, its money well spent. You can get it through STEAM but you can only play it on that PC, whereas I got the CD. The decision is entirely up to you: get one of the best games for Half-Life or keep playing Half-Life 2 over and over again. Three hours is enough to keep you amused for as long as you like!
