Half-Life 2: Episode 1 & 2

Valve releases a dozen of Episode 2 images, taken from the PC version. Keep in mind that Episode 2 will be featured in the Orange Box, as well as Half-Life 2, Episode 1, Team Fortress 2 and Portal.

Valve has launched the official website for Half-life 2: Orange Pack, which I hope we'll see a lot of at E3. It seems to be on track for the October release, and inside you'll find a lot of (low-res) images, both new and old ones in a big mess.

Electronic Arts and Valve released these not really new images of Half Life 2: Orange Pack. With Half Life 2, Episode 1, Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2, this should certainly keep most of us occupied!

Valve released these images together with all the other ones from X06 yesterday, but they captured these images from the exact same places as their old images - so it completely fooled us into thinking that they were old. Here they are anyway, a day late, but they actually seem to be the first images from the console versions (not confirmed yet).

Valve released these 2 high quality videos of Half Life 2 Episode 2, showing a bit more of this highly anticipated game.
Update: Valve already released this third video, much more interesting this time.
Update 2: As expected the 4th video is now available, with the 5th and last one to be released tomorrow I guess.
Update 3: Fifth video online.

Valve released the 720p and direct feed version of the Half Life 2 Episode 2 shown during the Game Convention last week. It looks just a tad better than our screener version ;)

Besides Portal and Team Fortress 2, Valve was also showing some nifty footage of Half Life 2: Episode 2 during the Game Convention, and as expected Snoopers was there to record all of it. Enjoy this 12 minutes video!

Valve just released an extended version of the Episode 2 trailer released some week ago, showing some new awesome gameplay sequences from the game. Really impressive, and an environment change was welcome.

Valve just announced that PS3 and 360 ports of Half-Life 2 are to be released next-year, in a big pack containing the game as well as the two "Episodes", Portal (a solo game featuring experimental gameplay) and... <span class="jeuliee"><a href="game_1106_en.html">Team Fortress 2</a></span>. Yep, THE <span class="jeuliee"><a href="game_1106_en.html">Team Fortress 2</a></span>. With its shaders-filled cartoony look, the game seems pretty far from what it used to be when it was still using the Quake Engine... And I must say I'm totally seduced. Are you ?
