Important, but not as good
Not as good as the first Half Life 2, and is quite short. But--it has an important part of the story clinging onto it. Still pretty good.

An underrated classic
This is a great expansion to what may be the greatest game ever. Too bad when I ask anyone about they assume it sucks because "Halo is cooler!". Halo is a good game, but not nearly as good as this. If you are looking to buy a great FPS, any game in the Half-Life series is they way to go. This game is kind of bloody, but this isn't an extremely violent game like Mortal Kombat or even God of War. A sh** is said once, but goes by quick anyway.

a teen game in the guise of an adult one
great series, and great game. the violence is moderate, blood does splatter, but it is unrealistic. the swearing is relatively toned downb for an m-rated game, just sh*t, h*ll, b*tch, no f-bombs at all.
the great story line details alyx vance and gordon freeman trying to delay a massive reactor from exploding long enough for the just-liberated citizens of city 17 to escape into the surrounding wilderness. alyx is a very nice and caring person, and while gordon never talks, he IS a quantum physicist. this is a really fun game for mature tweens to adults, but <10 year olds shouldn't play it.

Great for kids and adults who don't have a problem with violence or language.
I'm 12 and I loooove the Half Life series. I played the original and loved it so much that it compelled me to buy Half Life 2 and Episodes 1 & 2. Some parts of this game can be challenging like puzzles and some enemies. But there are walkthroughs and cheats to use if you're stuck. The scariest part of the game is the zombies. Luckily they move slow and can be killed fast. There are some fast moving zombies call "Leapers" but they usually die pretty fast. Overall it's a great game. I hope this review enlightens you on Half Life: Episode 2.

This is one game that mature gamers can't miss
First of all it is a challanging innovative game... It is as fun as the origanal!It has alotta blood and gore obviously... A couple swear words split out in the game.There is a strong female role... Its the save the world story... It is a great game and so was the origanal... Speaking of the origanal why did it get NO stars? They probably rate it cause of content...

what would you do
what would you do if you were under attack by aliens and they wanted to kill your children and turn you into a mindless soldier? violence would be the only way out of that situation.

Good for mature Tweens and older. GREAT GAME!!!
Lots of blood and violence, but a compelling, fun story, even though it's kind of short. Played it at 12 years old and loved, but I was a mature 12 year old and it may not be suitable for all Tweens.
