Damn! I hate HL2 EP2 and Valve!

MooSey-UK · 14 May 2007 at 22:54

just read the new 'ish pc gamer today and saw the screenies for the very late EP2.
I swore due to valves slipping timescale, keeping me hanging on like a spotty teenager waiting for his first date to turn up. Knowing she was never going to arrive. That i was going to give valve the finger and hit them where it hurt by voting with my wallet. ie not buying EP2.......
Now though Im going to have to get it, it just looks to good and blasting those hunters is going to be on this years "must do" list

Honestly? HL2 just didnt grip me the way HL1 did. It was a good game but i found it got a bit 'samey' towards the end.

EP1 is said to last 4 hours, and for the money i really didnt think it was worth it. It was supposed to be a case of episodic content being pushed out quite quickly to keep the story alive. Doesnt seem to of turned out that way though does it?

Sam and max is the only example of episodic content that has ever worked as intended. I will however be buying Episode 2 purely because of Team fortress 2, back in the days of TFC i was a high rank player don't you know.

I want to play Portal!!

LLBDTiberio · 15 May 2007 at 09:32

Me too, Portal looks immense, ep2 looks good as well.
Can't wait untill I can preload the blackbox, thanks to the new ati cards I "technically" have the games already

DuffMan · 15 May 2007 at 11:50

I personally am going to buy it only to play TF2 and will proberbly have a go at EP2 later down the line.

sniffy · 15 May 2007 at 15:41

Screw EP2, TF etc....ROLL ON LEFT4DEAD

Seriously though, EP2 doesn't interest me. If it's anything like EP1, it won't be worth the money. TF will be sweet though so I will buy it purely for that.

Ep1 was worth my money
