I basically don't remember Episode 1.

It was really bland, not surprised.

Especially since it was basically just...some more Half-Life 2. More time spent in City 17 fighting combine and headcrab zombies with a SPAS-12 or an MP7 or a USP Match. I wouldn't bet against my memories of Ep 1 just blend into my memories of HL2. Ep 2 was distinct in having the antlion burrow and the countryside and the car and Dog ripping a strider's brain out. It wasn't merely more HL2.
