Half-Life 2: Episode Two is a 2007 first-person shooter game developed and published by Valve. Following Episode One (2006), it is the second of two shorter episodic games that continue the story of Half-Life 2 (2004). The player controls Gordon Freeman, who travels through the mountains surrounding City 17 to a resistance base with his ally Alyx Vance. Like previous Half-Life games, Episode Two combines shooting, puzzle-solving and narrative elements, and adds expansive environments and less linear sequences.
Runs well on modern hardware.

Probably my favorite out of the three. Features a number of fun fights, and a pretty interesting continuation of the story, which ends on quite the cliffhanger. Can't wait for the sequel to this.
Doing my job... until they kill one of the science team. Nevermind, he got ressurected in HD!
Great stuff. Better than Ep1. (And the flashlight meter is separated from the sprint/etc. meter). If you liked HL2 and HL2:E1, you will like this.
