Does anyone find this game a lot shorter than the first?  It feels I am blowing right on through without much trouble.

It certainly can be played through pretty quickly if you choose to, you should play it on hard difficulty setting and take your time to examine levels to get most out of it.

Personally I think this game sucks, their is no story what’s so ever in this game.  The first thing Gordon would have done after 10 years of absence is ask what the hells been going on here?  but that question never comes up, nor do you ever find out who the combine really are or what happened to the first invasion from Zen or why the Zen are now seemingly allied with the humans and are enslaved to the Combine. These are all important plots that Valve never touches on.  The story in the game is very lacking, and where’s the Aliens? All you ever fight in the game is mostly combine which to me is nothing more the over dressed SWAT guys that are in fact really Humans collaborators working for the Combine.  No sorry but this game blows.  The only feeling I got from this game was valve pushing off on everyone how nice looking the game is and how great the physics worked in the game.  Basically this was a look at how nice our engine is, so who wants to license it?  Give me a break!!
