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.

But Gordon? LOL, he smashes crates with a crowbar and scampers around like a mouse in a maze. He's a wuss! The only reason he survives is because the aliens are retards who can't seem to kill one guy!
True. But haven't you played telephone? Things get distorted, especially over seven years.
Just talk to the vortigaunts. All they do is talk about the coming of the "free man" and how the "free man" slaughtered so many of them but saved the entire race.
Whether Gordon deserves it is debatable. Whether he's achieved it isn't. The first game makes it clear that Gordon is a folk hero to these people. So you can sit there bitching about how he shouldn't be all you want, but the simple fact is that he has become one already in the world of that game.
Stop letting your own prejudices about the game cloud the facts the game has laid out. And it makes sense. People like to cling to heros. Gordon was the closest thing they could find to one. The entire Earth failed to stop the Combine. But Gordon singlehandedly beat thousands. They use him for hope. It's happened thousands of times in history.
