Details on Half-Life 2 - Orange and Black Editions

Posted by Zonk on from the colors-are-easy-to-understand dept.

A post at Game|Life lays out details on the upcoming Half-Life 2 releases. Instead of an unwieldy name (Half-Life 2 : Episode Two and a bunch of other stuff) they've given the PC and console releases color-coded names. The PC release, containing Episode Two, Portal, and Team Fortress 2 will be available as Half-Life 2: Orange. Half-Life 2: Black will be the 360/PS3 release, and will contain all of the above plus Episode One and the original campaign. Both boxes are expected in 'late summer' of this year.

    Do Or Do Not, There Is No Spoon, There Is Only Zuul. Everything in the above post is probably opinion.

      Should read "Both boxes are expected to be delayed in 'late summer' of this year."

    If I play Half-Life and Second-Life at the same time, will I get a life?
