All retail copies of the game, as well as all initial digital versions, were bundled with, which some game journalists referred to as part of Half-Life 2's 'multiplayer component.' Half-Life 2 received critical acclaim, with praise directed towards its advanced, and, and is widely considered to be one of the. The game won 39 ' awards and the title of 'Game of the Decade' at the 2012, in addition to sales of 12 million copies by 2011. It was followed by two episodic sequels: (2006) and (2007). A screenshot of the player engaging a group of with a pulse rifle. Along the bottom of the screen, the player's health, suit charge level, and their ammunition are displayed.Like its, Half-Life 2 is a single-player broken into several chapters, permanently casting the player as protagonist. The sequel has similar mechanics to Half-Life, including health-and-weapon systems and periodic physics puzzles, except with the newer engine and improved graphics.
The player also starts without items, slowly building up their arsenal over the course of the game. Despite the game's mainly linear nature, much effort was put into making exploration rewarding and interesting; many optional areas can be missed or avoided.A diverse set of enemies is present, which usually require being approached with different tactics: some coordinate in groups to out-maneuver or out-position the player; others, such as the Manhack, fly directly at the player through small openings and tight corridors. Others use predictable but powerful attacks, while others hide before swiftly attacking the player. Gordon can kill most enemies with his weapons, or make use of indirect means, exploiting environmental hazards such as explosive pressurized canisters, gas fires or improvised traps.
For some portions of the game, Gordon can be joined by up to four armed Resistance soldiers or medics, and can send his team further from him or call them back.Many of the game's new features utilize its detailed physics simulation. Two sections of the game involve driving vehicles. Instead of button-orientated puzzles from Half-Life, environmental puzzles are also introduced with makeshift mechanical systems, revolving around the player's new ability to pick up, move, and place objects. Solutions involve objects' physical properties, such as shape, weight,. For example; In chapter three, 'Route Kanal', the player is required to stack cinder blocks on a makeshift see-saw ramp to proceed over a wall. Alternatively, the player can build a crude staircase with the blocks, so the puzzle may be solved in multiple ways.Part-way through the game, Gordon acquires the, which allows him to draw distant objects towards himself or forcefully push them away, as well as the ability to manipulate larger and heavier objects that he cannot control without the weapon.
These abilities are required to solve puzzles later in the game, and can also be used to great effect in combat, as any non-static object within proximity to the player has the potential to be used as a makeshift defense, such as a file cabinet, or a deadly projectile, such as a gasoline can or blade.The game never separates the player with pre-rendered or events; the story proceeds via exposition from other characters and in-world events, and the player is able to control Gordon for the entirety of the game. Much of the backstory to the game is simply alluded to, or told through the environment.Plot Some years after and other scientists accidentally opened a portal to a dimension of hostile aliens at the, Freeman is awoken from stasis by the mysterious.
The portal attracted the attention of the, a technologically superior empire which conquered Earth in seven hours. The Combine have implemented a brutal by biologically assimilating humans and other species, and preventing humans from breeding via a 'suppression field'.
The G-Man inserts Gordon into a train arriving at, site of the, where, the former Black Mesa administrator who negotiated Earth's surrender, governs as the Combine's.After eluding Combine forces, Gordon joins resistance members including, a former Black Mesa security guard working undercover as a Combine police officer;, former Black Mesa scientist and leader of the resistance;, Eli's daughter; and, an eccentric Black Mesa scientist. After a failed attempt to teleport to the resistance base, from Kleiner's makeshift laboratory, Gordon progresses on foot through the city's canal system. He obtains an and battles his way to Black Mesa East, several miles from the city.Gordon is reintroduced to Eli and meets another resistance scientist,. Alyx introduces Gordon to her pet robot and gives him a 'gravity gun', an instrument which can manipulate large objects.
Black Mesa East comes under Combine attack, and Eli and Mossman are taken to, a Combine prison. Separated from Alyx, Gordon detours through the zombie-infested town of Ravenholm, assisted by its last survivor,. Escaping the town, Gordon discovers a resistance outpost, and uses a customized to travel a crumbling coastal road to Nova Prospekt, encountering Combine patrols and helping the resistance fend off raids.Gordon lays siege to Nova Prospekt by using pheromone pods to command the hordes of alien antlions that infest the coast. He reunites with Alyx in the prison and they locate Eli, but discover that Mossman is a Combine informant. Before they can stop her, Mossman teleports herself and Eli back to City 17's Citadel. The Combine teleporter explodes as Gordon and Alyx use it to escape Nova Prospekt.Returning to Kleiner's lab, Gordon and Alyx learn that the teleporter malfunctioned and that a week has passed; during their absence, the resistance had fully mobilized against the Combine.
In battle, Alyx is captured by the Combine and taken to the Citadel; Gordon fights his way inside with the aid of D0g and Barney. Gordon is then caught in a Combine 'confiscation chamber' that destroys all his weapons except the gravity gun, which is inadvertently supercharged by the forcefield, allowing Gordon to fight his way up the Citadel.Gordon is eventually captured in a Combine transport pod and taken to Breen's office, where he and Mossman are waiting with Eli and Alyx in captivity. Breen explains his plans to further conquer humanity with the Combine, contrary to what he told Mossman. Angered, Mossman frees Gordon, Alyx, and Eli before Breen can teleport them off-world. Breen tries to escape through a portal, but Gordon destroys the portal reactor with the gravity gun.
Just before the Citadel is destroyed in an ensuing explosion, time is frozen. The G-Man reappears, praising Gordon for his actions in City 17.
Making vague mention of 'offers for Gordon's services', the G-Man places him back into. Development.

They also noted that the physics of Half-Life 2 are very impressive despite being a console title. However, it was noted that the graphics on the Xbox 360 version of Half-Life 2 were not as impressive as when the title was released on the PC.
GameSpot's review of The Orange Box noticed that the content of both the Xbox 360 releases, and PlayStation 3 releases were exactly alike, the only issue with the PlayStation 3 version was that it had noticeable frame-rate hiccups.

Mods vary in scale, from fan-created levels and weapons, to partial conversions such as Rock 24, Half-Life 2 Substance and SMOD (which modify the storyline and gameplay of the pre-existing game), and (which allow the player to experiment with the physics system in a mode), to such as, Zombie Master or, the last of which transforms the game from a first-person shooter into a real-time strategy game. Some mods take place in the Half-Life universe; others in completely original settings. Many more mods are still in development, including Lift, The Myriad, Operation Black Mesa, and the single-player mod. Several multiplayer mods, such as, a predominately sword-fighting game;, which focuses on realistic modern infantry combat; and have been opened to the public as a beta. As part of its community support, Valve announced in September 2008 that several mods, with more planned in the future, were being integrated into the program, allowing the mods to make full use of Steam's distribution and update capabilities.
Main articles: andSince the release of Half-Life 2, Valve Corporation has released an additional level and two additional 'expansion' sequels. The level, released as, was meant to take place between the levels 'Highway 17' and 'Sandtraps'. It serves primarily as a showcase for (HDR) technology. The first expansion sequel, takes place immediately after the events of Half-Life 2, with the player taking on the role of Gordon Freeman once again and with Alyx Vance playing a more prominent role. Continues directly from the ending of Episode One, with Alyx and Gordon making their way to White Forest Missile base, a hideout of the resistance. A third episode is set to be released in the future, completing an intended trilogy.
In a June 2006 interview with, Gabe Newell revealed that the Half-Life 2 'episodes' are essentially Half-Life 3. He reasons that rather than force fans to wait another six years for a full sequel, Valve Corporation would release the game in episodic installments. Newell stated that a more accurate title for these episodes would have been ' Half-Life 3: Episode One' and so forth, having referred to the episodes as Half-Life 3 repeatedly throughout the interview. In a May 2011 interview with Develop, Newell stated that the episodic model had been replaced by even shorter development cycles and continuous updates via.
