Did I make a huge mistake.

[Vicious Horizon]

I bought the Half-Life 2 Episode pack, but is Episode One and Half-Life 2 different? If so, SHIT.

[Calneon]

Uh, you get episode 1 and 2 in the episode pack, but not half life 2. I'm not sure I understand.

[Isphera]

Episode One and Half-Life Two are different.

Half Life Two is the original, 16 hour game. Episode One is the following 6 hour installment. Episode Two was the 8 hour installment after that.

[Vicious Horizon]

K. I guess i'll just play Episode 1 and 2, then buy HL2 later.

@ Phantom: The episode pack doesn't include HL2.

[Isphera]

Your a spanner. Seriously, buy HL2 first. It won't make too much sense otherwise :)

[Bloo]

Am I the only one who after reading the thread title wanted to say: "Well done, next time wear a condom, dingus?" - anyone? Comeon...

Anyway, play HL2 first otherwise Ep1 and 2 won't make much sense. They don't make much sense anyway but it's nice to do them in order anyway.

[VoX]

Am I the only one here who has completed HL1?

[Bloo]

I have. But Half Life 1 and 2 are basically unrelated when you get down to it :P

[Calneon]

Oh and why didn't you buy The Orange Box? It contains all the Half Life 2 episodes and the original, plus Portal and Team Fortress 2.

If you already have Portal/Team Fortress 2, then why the hell did you buy them seperately in the first place?

[Chazlene]

Yeah, there's no reason not to go with the Orange Box, it's far far cheaper than buying all the games separately and plus you get Peggle for free!
