hahaha. I thought the same thing. Specially with DaveSimmons's line above your post (taken out of context)
I agree, I thought it was a great game, although too short. That was no problem though since it only cost me $8.

yeap i have 160hours into the game myself. still have a good portion of the continant to explore.
but i agree with everyone that HL2 ep1 was way to fricken short. im just glad i got it for $15.
if ep2 is not at least 6hours i wont bother. well at least until its like $5 to buy im sick of spending $50 for a game that last 2-4 hours
Yep... And Don't forget (SPOILERS):
That part at the end... FFS they make me run around to bring groups of people, and not only that, but I have to bring 12 people in 4 groups! (4,4,2,2), not only did that part suck big time and was just a way for Valve to make the game 10 minutes longer, it was also annoying as hell, and the fact that you need to move two groups of 2 people is just stupid...

I loved Episode 1, even though it was extremely short. Half life 2 is the greatest game I've ever played, I can't wait until episode 2 comes out.
I have a question about the continuity though: are these three "episodes" what we're getting in place of HL3? If so, shouldn't they be called HL3: episode 1, 2, 3? Or are they just HL2: continued? In that case, will we get a full HL3 game after these three little ones?

I think they're done coming out with big releases. I don't think they can really be working on HL3 and these episodes at the same time. I believe these eps are prefixed with HL2 instead of HL3 because they're more of a continuation of the second story and not beginning a third. Eventually though I'm sure the story will take a major turn at which point they'll begin calling it HL3, perhaps.

I enjoyed it, took me about 4 hours and I think it was worth $15 or whatever I paid. The set piece battles were pretty good.
Yep, it was really fun and kept me wanting more. I had to pace myself so I wouldn't beat it too fast.
Loved HL1, thought HL2 was too short and boring. I paid $18 for HL2 pack with the t-shirt at CC and I still feel I didn't get my money's worth. I'll probably wait for all of the episodes to be collected and released on one of those "collected editions" once it drops to $20 (for all of them, not just one episode).

Bought it for $14.99 at BestBuy, $16.12 after tax. Sold it for $12 right after I beat it. Wasn't really even worth the $5 it cost after fees.
