DESCRIPTION
Half-Life 2: Episode One continues the single-player story from the critically acclaimed Half-Life 2. Players slip on the battered spectacles of Dr. Gordon Freeman to engage in more alien and mutant battles from within the decaying walls of City 17. The expansion pack also focuses on freedom fighter Alyx Vance and her robotic companion, Dog, as they team up with Freeman to defeat the oppressive alien race known as the Combine. Though the add-on䀙s length is shorter than the campaign found in Half-Life 2, offering an estimated four to six hours of play, the narrative addresses lingering questions and fleshes out the storylines of the principal characters in greater detail. In addition, the game introduces new ways to interact with the environment and includes a number of other surprises. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

“Good adventure continuing the story immediately after the end of Half-Life 2. My only complaint is that at times Alyx can be frustrating to work with. Overall great game, must play for fans of the series.”

“Half-Life 2: Episode One takes place immediately after the events of Half-Life 2. It's supposed to be the first in an episodic line-up, and as an entry, it sets up the story really well. The reason why I gave it a "mediocre" rating is because Alyx's fails as a follower and she's aggravating work with to say the least and the story writing was kind of "all over the place".”
