HL2 episodes 1 and 2 are basically like sequels to HL2. All the games play completely linearly, so episode 1 picks up immediately after the events of HL2, and episode 2 right after episode 1.

I think lost coast is just an extra side-campaign that takes place during the events of HL2.
good vibes only

Steam is probably the best thing that has happened to downloadable game distribution. You will pay 10 bucks, and all the games would be added to your account, and you can download the games and play them through steam on any computer.

Steam is 100% fine, don't be ridiculous.
The last 10 games I bought were DLed from Steam. Most recently Fallout3.

I just bought it.

Does anyone know why when I play Portal it lags? I have no other applications or downloads running and am just playing single player. I downloaded the graphics update that it said and restarted my computer.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=92031

Lost Coast is a mission that was made available to ppl who purchased HL2 a while after its release. Its purpose was to show off a feature they added later to the Source engine, which was HDR lighting effects. It's basically just a showing-off-our-new-feature thing.

They've gone back and added that back to a lot of HL2's campaign, so yeah.

A Story:

I have never, ever, thought of using a program/service like steam, paying for games the way you do (ie. downloading). I was browsing TL, and saw this topic. I went to the steam website, made an account, downloaded Steam, and bought The Orange Box. How anyone in their right mind could pass this up is beyond me.

Does anyone else have a problem with Portal? In game gets pretty laggy. Also, the load times for Half-Life 2 is especially long.

Please help if you know how to fix it. I've searched online and haven't found anything.

I wonder how much money/how many new players they got off of this deal. @_@ Any one of those games alone is worth the 10bux.

rendering the portals themselves needs a lot of computing
it must have been a really hard task to programme those

Anyway, I just finished portal yesterday, I must say, the atmosphere is sooo great.
Last stage is so awesome.. I don't want to spoiler it.
And all is illuminated.
