Half-Life 2: Episode Two will be the second game in a trilogy of expansion episodes for the game Half-Life 2 from Valve Corporation. On May 24, 2006, after it was announced that Half-Life 2: Episode One had gone gold, Valve announced that Episode Two would be released in Quarter 4 2006. Doug Lombardi confirmed this date [1] as an update to the information given in an interview in the August 2006 issue of PC Gamer, for which Valve had indicated a Spring 2007 release. Valve have now disclosed that the release date has indeed been pushed back to summer of 2007[2]. The first two episodes have been developed concurrently by separate teams. [3] Episode Two's focus appears to be on travel and vehicles, and it will see Gordon Freeman and the series' other major characters moving away from both the ruins of City 17 and the entire area in which it is located and into large outdoor forest environments.

A teaser trailer for Episode Two is included in Episode One and is unlocked upon completion of the game. It can also be accessed directly from the game files. The teaser has since been made available though other outlets, including as a free media download via Valve's own Steam. A technologically updated and extended version of the first trailer for Episode Two was released on July 21, 2006. Another trailer showcasing a part of the story of Episode Two was released on August 24, 2006.

Army of Two is a video game developed by Electronic Arts, coming out on PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2007.

Info

Army of Two is an action game with a focus on cooperative and coordinated strategies. The video game is labeled a co-op third-person shooter. Players will join up with either the game's lifelike built-in Partner Artificial Intelligence (PAI) or other players "to fight through war, political turmoil and a conspiracy so vast it threatens the entire world." Story details are vague at the moment, but the game involves conflicts with private military corporations. You play as Tyson Rios and Elliot Salem, two "contractors" and former Army Rangers in a private military corporation (PMC), a company hired as security or to supplement government military forces. You choose one character at the start of each mission; the computer or a second human player controls the other character. The game will feature a unique weapon upgrading system, where just about any part of any gun can be combined. Details on the characters themselves are vague, but between the two, Salem is the younger and wilder of the pair, whilst Rios is the more controlled leader. Both players wear ballistic facemasks, which protect them from bullets, gun-fire and debris. Salem's facemask bears skull-like teeth, and Rio's mask possesses large flames. One of the major gameplay angles, which sets AoT apart from most others, is that nearly every aspect of the game is co-operative. Even such activities as parachuting, rapelling and even death are all played co-operatively. When characters get shot by enemies too much, they fall down, and the injured player has to rapid-tap buttons to keep the character from a heavenly glow (an unproven sympton of a near-death experience), while the other player cooperatively moves the analog stick to apply CPR. The characters can give each other ammo when they are low, stand back to back while covering enemies in a 360-degree arc, help each other rappel down buildings, work together to knock over heavy tables and move them as portable cover, and carry each other if one is shot, the man being carried can still shoot while on the shoulder of his teammate. Everything in Army of Two, from the environments and their loads of physics-based obstacles to its small army of enemies (up to 50 on screen at once) has been designed to force you to work with your partner. All the game's actions are contextual, displaying on a pop-up menu when conditions are right.

Developer Interview

Army of Two was ranked #1 in Electronic Gaming Monthly's special feature, "Top 50 new games", in issue #206 (August 2006). A six page exclusive developer interview including exclusive screenshots and information on the game is the main feature in the issue, with a screenshot on the cover page. The main reason the game earned the best ranking is because of its co-op combat. Senior Producer Reid Schneider said, "In Army of Two, co-op is the game. For us, we need to make people think about how to play games differently. It's the core for what Army of Two is all about."

Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway will be the 3rd entry in the Brothers in Arms series of video games. It will see players reprise the role of Sergeant Matt Baker, a soldier of the 101st Airborne Division, during Operation Market Garden in the late stages of World War II. Gearbox has set its sights on a March 2007 release on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. The game has many new features, including the ability to command a further squad, from a selection of new specialised units (Bazooka Teams, Machine Gun teams, Mortar Teams, as well as Radio Teams with which to call in artillery support). When a command is issued, the player model uses hand signals to issue the command to his squad, just like the previous games in the series.
