Half-Life 2 announced for Xbox 360 & PS3 with all extra content & new games included

Valve’s Gabe Newell revealed at EA’s annual summer press event that Half-Life 2 will be coming to the Xbox 360 and PS3! But wait, that’s not all, it will include all extra content released for PC so far and more.

The console versions will include:
* Half-Life 2,
* Half-Life 2: Episode One,
* Half-Life 2: Episode Two,
* Half-Life 2: Portal,
* Team Fortress 2.

Team Fortress 2, now sports a cartoonish art style and a 60′s spy feel, akin to that of Monolith’s No One Lives Forever.
Half-Life 2: Portal, incorporates a rather imaginative gun to blast Prey-like portals into floors and walls, allowing for an entirely new Puzzle-FPS way to interact with environments and enemies. The latter and possibly both will also be included in Half-Life 2: Episode Two on the PC.

Half-Life 2 with all the extra content, will be released for Xbox 360 & PS3 alongside the PC game’s Half-Life 2: Episode Two expansion later in 2006. Via Joystiq

FPS games on console is a joke

For a real control and speed in a fps game you need keyboard and mouse.

Its a shame console games and pc games cant play mutliplayer together on the same server.
Then the console noobs would get hammered by the pc players with keyboard and mouse control .

I’m a PC gamer, and unlike many of my brothren, I’m glad that HL2, Ep2 and Ep1 is being realised to the console. It will give console gamers a chance to enjoy what we have enjoyed (and still do) for a year and a half now. This type of game could only of been created for the PC (first).

Wow! PC gamers sure have succled from the arrogance teate most of their lives! PC games are nice, but nothing beats the gaming comfort of sitting on your gaming couch or chair and immersing yourself in a console game.

First person shooters need to remain where they belong and that is not on consoles.
