Valve's David Speyrer and Marc Laidlaw reveal the secrets of Half-Life 2's second episode to Jamie Sefton: why you can't lose Alyx, the tear-jerking ending and their plans for Episode Three

While the long delay of the game's release stretched the idea of what episodic gaming actually is, Half-Life 2: Episode Two remains a triumphant expansion to the universe, taking your character of Gordon Freeman and his sassy sidekick Alyx on an epic trek to the White Forest resistance base.

It's a great expansion to the Half Life Saga but the episodes are a little short.

The episodes are short, but given the value of the other titles, you can't go wrong. I personally love EP1 and 2, and Portal is worth it's weight in gold.
