I would freakin LOVE it though if the first HL2 expansion put you back in the boots of Adrian Shepard, oppressed citizen of City 17, with the first scene of the game being you waking up in bed, looking out your apartment window, and seeing the Citadel go nuclear. I think Valve could create a really interesting "aftermath story" from that springboard, with one condition: it must reveal NOTHING about what happened to Alyx.

I hope they release a sequel similar to Opposing Forces. I don't know how they would introduce it into the Half-Life 2 universe, maybe use the sequel to fill in the gap of time between Black Mesa and City17.

How about a link to where you heard it?

I heard about an expansion but I don't know what it will be.

Op For & Blue Shift for HL1.
Blue Shift 2 would work.
Or Alyx's story.

They have those 2 options, and that's about it. I don't see them making us the Combine.

Hell, I read somewhere they were in the process of making extra episodes for HL2, and I think they were supposed to involve Alyx. It was in the Gamespy or something write up on HL2 and its long development process.

It could be neat if they made us a Combine soldier. And maybe it works out like Opposing Force 1, where you slowly realized that your commanders were trying to eliminate you just as you were trying to eliminate the Black Mesa staff. Think about it, you could move around in the Citadel, being up close to those things we could only see from afar in our pods. You would learn a little more about what was going on, as far as the aliens and the Combine. It could be good.

Yes I heard that they were going to making a few levels which would only run on HIGH end equipment IE X800 Pro's/XT's and 6800 series cards and up. They will also show off ATI's 3dc texture compression feature.
