SiN: Episodes

Yeah I read that too but it sure didn't fix it for me at least.

Can't visit their games section at the steam site at all and all I get on steam itself whichever "page" I try to view is "Page was not found blabla".

Episodic content just reeks of money gathering schemes.

It works for TV as its free, so you know your gonna get the next bit no matter what. Games...well..I'm not paying £12 every now and then to find out what comes along. I doubt I'll be getting Episode One for that matter either. Sure the HL2 universe is nice, but hey I'm not paying £2 for an hour of gameplay.

That's the beauty of an episodic game - you buy one episode, get the gist and if it's not your cup of tea you don't have to buy the rest

I liked this system when it was called 'demos' and was for free.

The winner, I totally agree with you on this one.

And another thing. They announced 9 episodes? Just how much time are they going to spend on developing a single episode. I hope the 9th episode isn't coming out like 4 years from now. By then Source will look like SHIIIAAT. (ps. doesn't it already look like moderate shit? )

However pretty graphics isn't everything

well im buying it. getting sin1 with it so. i never played it even

Yeah, but done right, which I think Episode 1 will be, it'll just be like an add-on pack, in a similar vein to Opposing Force etc.
