Valve announces that Half-Life 2: Episode One is now available via
Steam: Valve Launches First of an Episodic Trilogy
Bellevue, WA, June 1, 2006 - Valve®, developer of the blockbuster series
Half-Life® and Counter-Strike™, announced Half-Life® 2: Episode One is now
available via Steamgames.com for just $19.95 and at retail outlets around the
world.
The first in a trilogy of episodic games, Episode One reveals the aftermath of
Half-Life 2 and launches a journey beyond City 17. Episode One does not require
Half-Life 2 to play and also includes a first look at Episode Two, which will
ship by year's end.
In addition to the new single player experience, two multiplayer games are
included. And those who purchase Episode One will have free access via Steam (www.steamgames.com)
to Half-Life 2: Lost Coast, the interactive technology demo that introduces High
Dynamic Range lighting to the SourceTM Engine, Valve's award-winning game
technology.

I just played it at the university tonight and I enjoyed it. I was a little pissy about having to go back into the Citadel (the player beat the second game there, no need to rehash) but the game was fun overall. Eh, especially after SiN E, I'm more or less a convert who is against the episodic format. HL EP 1 is far and above better than Emergence, but the content just wasn't there for me.
And I do think Riley's a little off on his argument about lack of content. The worth of the game is going to vary from person to person. If you're an ardent fan of HL2 and loved everything about it, you'll definitely enjoy this. Me, I liked HL2 quite a bit, enjoyed the storyline immensely, but they're just taking way to long to do anything with it. There's just not enough in the ep to keep me interested.
So, with that said, I won't be getting Ep 2 or 3.
