Dark Drakan · 03-06-2006, 03:58 PM

The upcoming 'expansion' for the highly acclaimed Half Life 2 that has courrently been renamed from Aftermath to Episode 1 is apparently going to be a stand alone game according to Valve. So you will not have to own a previous copy of Half Life 2 to run it (though it would help you alot story wise if you did). It is due on April 24th and will retail in US at $19.99 though a European price has not yet been decided.

I know you guys are talking about Half Life 2 expansion but have you heard If there going to make a Half Life game for Xbox 360?

Well Half Life 2 is for the xbox so... and these are like expansions for PC only so until Half Life 3 i doubt it.

Maybe in the future it will have its own version but until then im sure with the Hard Drive Half Life 2 will work on 360.

It's not even near the PC version quality though.

Maybe not but what do you expect, it was still amazing on both though.

360 games are bloody expensive though at the moment.
