basketcase3000 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 If you're using Steam, you won't need the original HL2 game pack. I got Episodes One and Two before I got the original Half Life 2. So it should work fine without Half Life 2. It would take less time to download an Episode pack if you already had HL2 because they share a lot of common files inside Steam.

abscheele Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 I think I would just buy the disks, does this make a diffrence? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/121107-half-life-2-episode-pack/#findComment-857609 Share on other sites More sharing options...
basketcase3000 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 No it shouldn't do. They should function as standalone games without the need for HL2.

DukeRaoul Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 BTW ('lil off topic) - Half Life 2 and Portal work on the Mac now... with CrossOver Games. Tested here, and both run nice full speed on Leo. Fills a big gap in the Mac game world - the Half Life games are superb.

basketcase3000 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Sounds good. I'll have to give them a try on Crossover. Cheers for that. Not to mention that COD4 comes out on the Mac in September as well.
