I started playing last night!! And died in the mines... lol Playing on normal mode for now but those things (look like flies to me) killed me!!

How's everyone doing? Enjoying it so far? The reviews are good but apparently Episode One was better and longer. This one seems to have only 5 hours of gameplay, which isn't much! But, to be honest, I don't mind so much.... 10 hours killing antlions and combine might be *just* a bit too much!!

ATM, I'm trying to figure out how to open a gate very early on in the game in the train yard station.

EDIT:

Just got on the roof of an adjacent buildiing to the gate! Yes! .... moving on!

I'm quite ahead of you... But I'm having a bug atm and trying to solve it.. so I stopped! If you need any help, let me know... at least till the part where I'm stuck, I can help!!

How's Portal? Didn't try that one yet.

Just went through a major gunfight against numerous antlions! HEhe great fun that was!

Presently, I've a Vortigon as my companion in arms --- wish I had his lightning powers.

I tried a bit of Portal last night --- looks mighty interesting.

Back to gaming....

BTW, what's the bug you've encountered?

If I tell you.. it might spoil the game for you... let's just say something is not doing what supposed to and I can't proceed... Apparently, I'll have to use a cheat to move on, for a bit, till it goes back to normal! I'm not the only one with this problem and so far, that's the only solution.

Glad you're enjoying the game! Tha battle was great! The music was cool too, while you kill the antlions! I had a good time chasing them with the turret!!

Now, don't you just hate when they go:

- Why don't you take Freeman?

-oh yeah, of course!!

- HEY!! I was quiet here... I didn't volunteer to do it!!

Downloading it now....22% at 400kb/sec...I'll get there eventually lol.

As you can see, I decided to Download it anyhow and buy the Orange Box, as even though Episode 2's Graphics won't be as spectacular as they should be on my computer, at least I can still play it, also in the future after many computer upgrades, I'll be able to play it still and it's on my Steam account indefinitely (Maybe my Fiancé will buy it for me as a wedding gift on PS3 too lol )

So, I'll tell you about it...when I get it downloaded lol.

I thought it was ace. Well better than Episode 1! Really cool to have some different environments. And that gman.......

Curious to play Portal now, if only because it seems the plot is tied in with Ep2. I want to know what's going on!!!

TF2 is excellent too imo. The Orange box is a steal!

I'm almost done with Ep. 2.. Working on my final battle... so hard... :| I agree, so far I definitely prefer Ep. 2 to Ep. 1!

As for Team Fortress... I think it's funny!

Oh,lucky you.I'm a big fan of Half Life and I still haven't got Episode Two.

That's too bad. Waiting for something or can't afford it yet?

I finished earlier! whew... that last part is :blink: I loved the game though!

BPanther

Well, finally beat the game. That was a bummer of an ending... talk about a cliff hanger .... of sorts anyway...

Would've loved to see a teaser trailer for Episode 3 at the end of the Credits such as the one in Episode 1.
