Valve: Half-Life 2 Episode 2 Will Be Longer

According to Doug Lombari, director of marketing at Valve, the next Half-Life 2 episode will be noticeably longer than the first. "Episode 1 was about six hours of gameplay, and Episode 2 will be closer to eight hours of gameplay," Lombardi said. Valve also said that despite the delay of Episode 2, the development cycle for the episodic content was getting shorter.

there's no way it could possibly be a good game if it's that short. every shooter should be at least 30 hours to help with the quick pace the genre is known for.

I've never played it, but I don't think it will be short. The orange box contains Half-life 2 (which I'm assuming is the entire original game) + Episode one + Episode two + Portals + Team Fortress 2 (All for the price of one game I might add). I'd imagine that with all of that stuff combined, there will be at least 30 hours worth.

It sounds well worth it to me.

to all of those that claim that 360 games aren't good because they aren't extra long.

THAMMER16256d ago

But it was worth every second. They really love to mess with your head in this game. I can not wait. Preordering today along with Mass effect and bio shock. SWEET

i read were they upped the physics(even more). showed a house get ripped apart blank by blank. anyone else see that?

zonetrooper56256d ago

I am gonna get the black box for my PC, the first Half life 2 episode was short and i really do hope that the second it longer and better. Can't wait to play Portal and Team Fortress.

Far Cry 5....bullshit. This game had a great ending imo.

There is no game called Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2, but Rebirth had a great ending imo. Felt robbed by the ending at first, but the more I've seen it and during my 3rd playthrough, I started to understand and realize a lot more that make me appreciate the ending.

Nerdmaster19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

I was enjoying FFVII Remake, even though those whispers throughout the game were annoying. But the ending was so bad that I don't even want to play Rebirth. On top of that, from what I saw on reviews, the ending of Rebirth is even worse.

Also, I'm glad to see Zero Time Dilemma being recognized as the trainwreck it is. After the amazing two first games (especially the near perfect second one), the low quality of the trilogy end is baffling. The new characters are bad, the old characters don't feel like themselves, a surprise "alien technology" pops out of nowhere, the big twist was like "eh?", and it doesn't really finish the story nor explains the loose threads from the second game.

Apex Legends set a high bar in fps mobility. I think new games are now required to have some good mobility options.
