New content for Half-Life 2 fans

Valve, in an expected move, announced that they will be releasing regular content downloads over their Steam Service as an episodic expansion for Half-Life 2. The add-ons will be short consecutive stories extending the tale of Gordon Freeman, Alyx and the ever loveable D.O.G. The downloads will be regular, the premiere being Half-Life 2: Episode One. With April 24th as the first installment's release date and the upcoming SiN Episodes, this may be the start of a nice new trend in gaming.
