Half-Life 2 Expansion Packs?

[cHilli]

If anyone has ANY info regarding the expansions please post here, all I could dig us is this:

'The Half-Life 2 demos at E3 may have just focused on the usual jaw-dropping visuals and gameplay, but there were a few surprises to be had in the commentary from the developers. Counter-Strike Source is a reworking of the popular online game using the Half-Life 2 “Source” engine. It will be available as a charged-for download via the Steam distribution service around the time Half-Life 2 ships. Other add-ons for Half-Life 2 include the Team Fortress mod, plus interestingly, the original Half-Life and its expansion packs (Opposing Force and Blue Shift). All will be reworked using Source’s advanced graphics, physics and artificial intelligence engines.
The developers also announced there would be “proper” Half-Life 2 expansion packs using characters other than Gordon Freeman (like his new lady-friend Alyx).'

Despite no official announcement from Valve or publisher VU Games, several reports currently slithering across the internet suggest that a new Half-Life 2 add-on pack will be revealed imminently by the developer, who are said to have confirmed the new title to PC Gamer magazine. The pack is said to focus on the role of Alyx Vance in the proceedings, and this is what previous rumours had been suggesting.

A brand new weapon - dubbed the 'Alyx gun' currently - is said to be a mix of pistol, SMG and sniper rifle.. the robot dog is also said to be making a return to our monitors.

Of course, all of this is speculation but from a variety of good sources.

those 3 dont mix lol

hey, any idea on whether we'll have to pay for it or not if u've already got steam?

[cHilli]

Will probably cost £20, USD$30 and €30. You'll undoubtably have to pay for it anyway
