It seems to me these long quotes from interviews made sense before the game was released but are now redundant. This paragraph could be summed up in a few lines and the interviews simply linked to. Thoughts? Mezigue ( talk) 09:38, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Magnussen paradox ?:Don't mind the spelling errors (im dutch).Reading through the paragraphs i found something i didnt understand. Why does a magnussen device explodes as soon as gorden freeman hits it, and why doesn't it go of when combine troops shoot at it(it falls of harmlessly) I thought that gorden freeman is armed with combine weaponary he looted from their corpses ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.67.185.226 ( talk) 12:01, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Leave me a note when done and I'll take another look (please don't strike)...cheers, dihydrogen monoxide ( H2O) 10:22, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Notes on the expanded reception section...
Hmm...and generally looks good... yeah, should be able to pass this soon. dihydrogen monoxide ( H2O) 09:49, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
One minor issue: the reference tag for citation #31 at the end is producing an error. Dr. Cash ( talk) 15:37, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
During the "Antlion defense" portion of the game, one of the two rebels assisting you states that they "may have 'mis-underestimated'" the creatures in question. From what I remember, the term "mis-underestimated" is often considered a Bushism. Could the character's use of the term be a not-so-subtle reference to this? 216.236.163.21 ( talk) 02:40, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
"The exact location remains vague, with signs in Bulgarian still hinting at a generic Eastern European setting, although gas pumps with the prices displayed in Finnish and Swedish have added to the confusion."
Remember in episode one, where you are in the hospital? I remember seeing some European signs also. I don't know what language it was, so I don't think I should mention this in the article, so if anyone plays the game again, or remembers what language it was in....please mention it sometime....? 75.72.213.199 ( talk) 01:03, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Given that some type of forced migration is in progress by the combine against the human race, it would make sense that signs in multiple languages are present in a concentration area for people formerly from other regions. The location cannot be deduced from the language of signs in game alone. 98.240.67.27 ( talk) 01:59, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
Is that referring to Half Life 2: Episode Pack? Can it be really called standalone if it's bundled with Episode One and HL2: Deathmatch? Also it's not retail only, it's released on Steam. -- Mika1h ( talk) 16:53, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
Attention, all contributors to the Valve Task Force and the articles it constitutes!
I am here to announce that I will be re-vitalizing the
Valve Task Force, aimed at universally improving articles constituting
Valve Corporation, their employees, associates and products. This specific task force has been dormant for quite some time and with two very notable releases coming out this year, I feel like this is the appropriate time to re-stimulate the general aim of this group. For those who are not already members of the Valve Task Force, feel free to add your name to our
members list and contribute to whatever articles you feel your contributions may prove beneficial for. Valve, its products and notable employees have proven to be essential to the progression of the video game industry, so I'd like to make a call of arms for this cause.

Shouldn't we note something about Valve making Half-Life through HL2E2 a "Complete" set? Seems like they gave up on HL's universe...
(If it were a SET, would be less worrying.)
