"Beautiful "sequel" to Half-Life 2"
Pros: Top notch story, excellent enemy and ally AI, only $20? sweeeet....
Cons: Short. seems like it's too short. I want more, dang it!
Summary: Wow. It's like it never left me. Half-life 2 picked up right where Lost Coast left off. While Lost Coast was merely a "side mission" at best, Episode 1 blows it out of the park. Excellent controls, excellent AI, excellent everything.
Except length. I can dig the whole episodic approach to telling a story. It beats the heck out of "micro transactions" and it doesn't get costly. That's great because I don't wanna have to keep plunking a few dollars here, a few there; I want it in one packacge.
But that's besides the point. I think that this is an extention of the best FPS out there. Hopefully Half-Life 2: Episode 2 will be at least, if not more fun (and longer) than this one.
